How is NADPH different from NADP+?

Biology

Agata [3.3K]4 years ago

Answer:

The carriers that move energy from the light-dependent reactions to the Calvin cycle reactions can be thought of as “full” because they bring energy. After the energy is released, the “empty” energy carriers return to the light-dependent reactions to obtain more energy. You should be familiar with the energy carrier molecules used during cellular respiration: NADH and FADH2. Photosynthesis uses a different energy carrier, NADPH, but it functions in a comparable way. The lower energy form, NADP+, picks up a high energy electron and a proton and is converted to NADPH. When NADPH gives up its electron, it is converted back to NADP+.

using the food web, describe two complete food chains that include a ptoducer, consumer, and descomposer.​
Damm [24]

Answer:

A food chain is a representation of what eats what in an ecosystem.

A combination of food chains is termed as a food web.

Example of two food chains in a food web are :

Example No 1:

Plant----- Grasshopper------ Frog---snake--- bacteria

Example No 2:

Plant---- rabbits---- fox---- bacteria

In a food chain, producers are usually plants and algae which are able to make their own food. Consumers feed on the plants. In example no 1, grasshoppers are primary consumers, frogs are secondary consumers, snakes are tertiary consumers.

In example no 2,plants are producers, rabbits are primary consumers and foxed are secondary consumers.

Decomposers are organisms that feed on the dead organisms in a food chain. In both the examples of food chain, bacteria are the decomposers.
