Photosynthesis is used to produce food for plants in the form of glucose. In the process, oxygen is released. As shown in the di
agram, plants require water and carbon dioxide (from the air). What else is required for photosynthesis and what role does it play? A) Light is required to provide energy for photosynthesis. B) ATP is required as an energy source for photosynthesis. C) Glucose is required as an energy source for photosynthesis D) Oxygen is required to split water molecules in photosynthesis.
light is required to provide energy for photosynthesis
Explanation:
For photosynthesis to take place, it requires the presence of light and chlorophyll. The process has two stages; light and dark stage.
In the light stage, chlorophyll molecules absorb light energy which is used to split water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen atoms. The process is called photolysis.
water→ hydrogen atoms + oxygen.
The hydrogen atoms produced enter the dark stage while oxygen is released in the atmosphere. In the dark stage, carbon dioxide combines with the hydrogen atoms to form simple sugar such as glucose.
Explanation: A stream terrace basically forms through this process– Temporary base level is eliminated; the stream downcuts upstream from the old temporary base level, and the former floodplain is left well above the present elevation of the stream.
Archaea and eubacteria differ from each other with respect to the nature of membrane lipids. Lipids present in the membranes of the archaeans have the hydrocarbons derived from isoprene units. These hydrocarbons are branched and are attached to the glycerol with help of ether linkage. Ester linkages are present in eubacteria. The glycerol present in the archaeans is L- glycerol. Bacterial membranes have D-glycerol present in their lipids.
The earth has layers and is composed of four layers. The
four layers of the earth are namely, crust, mantle, the outer core and the
inner core. The core in the layers of the earth serves as the central region.
The mantle is the earth’s solid bulk in terms of its interior. The inner and
outer core are composed minerals and are the third and fourth layer in the
earth.
how do animals obtain oxygen? animal cells exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with their surroundings by diffusion across the puter coverings or membranes of cells.
