Answer:

Transamination reaction:

Transmaination reaction may be defined as a type of chemical reaction that involves the transfer of an amino group to the another keto acid fort the formation of new amino acid. The non essential amino acid can be easily converted to essential amino acid by this transmination reaction.

This reaction is important for the important mteabolic pathways of the body. The cofactor required for the transamination reaction is pyridoxal-5'-phosphate. This cofactor also works as a derivative of vitamin B6. This cofactor is converted to pyridoxamine-5'-phosphate during the reaction.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

1st step: Transcription DNA is unraveled and used as a template to form complimentary mRNA mRNA then leaves nucleus in order to attach to ribosome and start 2nd step. 2nd step: Translation tRNA with aminoacids attached will try to join mRNA\ribosome complex if tRNA triple codon matches the mRNA code it will attach aminoacid to start forming protein. This process continues until mRNA reaches STOP code, resulting in a long chain of aminoacids. 3rd step: Protein folding and modification Usually performed by chaperonins and eventually golgi complex. Chaperonins assist in proper protein folding, while golgi apparatus performs final modifications.

ladessa [460]

The right options are; makes food for all organisms, adds oxygen to the atmosphere, is a source of medicines and fibers, is a source of building materials and it provides animal habitat.

Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants and some other autotrophs use light energy in chloroplasts to generate carbohydrates (food) from carbon dioxide and water while oxygen is being released as a by-product. Photosynthesis is essential to all living organisms on earth because it is the main source of oxygen in the atmosphere. Photosynthesis provides animal habitat, it provides food for all organisms (directly for plants and indirectly for animals). Plants and trees produce their foods through photosynthesis and are used as medicines and fibers, and as building materials.
