How is ATP created in photosynthesis?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is option e, that is, a, b and c.  

Explanation:

The phenomenon by which green plants and other species converts light energy into chemical energy is termed as photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the energy of the light is captivated and is utilized to transform carbon dioxide, water, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic components.  

With the transport of electron through the chloroplast membrane, the energy of the electron causes the diffusion of a hydrogen ion from stroma into the thylakoid lumen, which further leads to a formation of hydrogen ion concentration gradient. This gradient ultimately results in the formation of ATP.

A common symptom that would alert the nurse that a preterm infant is developing respiratory distress syndrome is:_________
Ede4ka [16]

A common symptom that would alert the nurse that a preterm infant is developing respiratory distress syndrome is expiratory grunting.

An audible grunt (forced expiratory sound) in a newborn is a crucial indicator of pulmonary disease and reveals a small lung volume or functional residual capacity (FRC). The baby's FRC rises when breathing against a partially closed glottis, maintaining the alveoli's patent state.

In an effort to maintain FRC and avoid alveolar atelectasis, the glottis suddenly closes on expiration, causing a grunting sound. Achieving and maintaining physiologic FRC is crucial in the management of respiratory illnesses with poor compliance, such as RDS or TTN, because lung compliance is worse at very low or very high FRC.
