What is the primary product of light independent reactions

Biology
1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
7 0

The primary products of the light independent reactions  (after one turn of the cycle) are:

a)  two G3P molecules

b)  three ADP

c) two NADP+

However ADP and NADP+ are not really "products". They are regenerated and later used again in the Light-dependent reactions.  Each G3P molecule is composed of three carbons.

For the Calvin cycle (Light independent cycle) to continue, 5 out of  the 6 carbons provided by the two G3P molecules are used to regenerate ribulose 1, 5 phosphate. Therefore there  remains only one carbon for the next turn of the cycle.

One  molecule of glucose requires 6 turns of the cycle. Any extra G3P is used to make starch, sucrose and cellulose.

Within a given species, which two types of cells have the equivalent amounts of dna?
kiruha [24]
The original question has a set of choices. This is within the context of cell division. The choices are:

A. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in G2 of interphase
B. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell immediately after the completion of meiosis II
C. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
D. A cell in G2 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
<span>E. None of the above.
</span>
The correct answer is C. A cell in G1 is diploid and the cell in meiosis II is haploid but the amount of DNA still equivalent as each chromosome in the haploid cell consists of two chromatids. G2 cells already had been through the S phase therefore the genetic material is already doubled. A cell immediately after meiosis II has half the genetic material.

Which step in the Gram stain is the critical step in differentiating Gram negative cells from Gram positive cells?
rewona [7]

Answer:

The rapid decolorization with ethanol or acetone

and counterstaining with safranin

When a decolorizer such as alcohol or acetone is added, it interacts with the lipids of the cell membrane. A gram-negative cell loses its outer lipopolysaccharide membrane, and the inner peptidoglycan layer is left exposed: when safranin is added they will turn red. Conversely, gram-positives retain the Cristal violet and will color in purple

The numbers of each genotype of mice in the questions above shows that there are more dark mice living on the dark substrate and
hammer [34]

Answer:

Dark colour.

Explanation:

Dark fur color seems to have the greatest selective advantage because of their hard physical body which occurs due to extreme environmental conditions. The dark colour of mice occurs due to the high intensity of sunlight which increases melanin in their skin. These dark colour mice pass through a very hard and extreme environmental conditions so that's why Dark fur color seems to have the greatest selective advantage.
