Answer:

a. Light-dependent phase- The chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight energy and carbon dioxide from the environment. The energy absorbed is used to convert 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water into 1 molecule of sugar and 6 molecules of oxygen, during this process electrons are released with high energy. The electrons go through the electron transfer chain (ETC), igniting the proteins inside the chain to deposit ions into the thylakoid. The hydrogen ions within the thylakoid are transported through ATP synthase to the stroma. During this process, phosphate bonds are transferred to ADP forming ATP. At the end of the ETC NADP+ molecules take up the hydrogen ions forming NADPH. These NADPH molecules are brought to the next phase of photosynthesis.

Light-independent phase- This is the second phase of photosynthesis, also called the Calvin Cycle. During this cycle chemical energy and carbon dioxide are used to make abiding energy storage molecules. ATP and NADPH formed in phase 1 are used to drive the transformation of carbon dioxide into glucose.

b. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide absorbed from the atmosphere to produces glucose that acts as a reactant in cellular respiration to make ATP, and producing the by-products water and carbon dioxide, which is released into the atmosphere, to be used again during photosynthesis. Thus the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration is mutually beneficial.

c. During respiration the photosynthesis products glucose and oxygen are used in the glycolysis cycle to produce pyruvate. Pyruvate travel into the mitochondria it here that pyruvate loses a carbon dioxide molecule. When the two-carbon molecule left is oxidized into carbon dioxide, this carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

2. Through the electron transport chain, electrons are transferred within the thylakoid membrane. During this time 12 three-carbon molecules are produced, while simultaneously 2 three- carbon molecules are removed to build organic compounds, leaving 10 molecules to carry on the cycle. The removed carbon molecules bond together to produce a 6 carbon sugar- glucose.

Answer:

There are many invasive animal sand plants which are harmful for native flora and fauna. Some of the invasive or alien species are as following:

1. The Nile Perch: Nile Perch is a type of fish which is native to African lake and river systems but if it is introduced in other countries lake it can be dangerous to other fishes in that lake. It was earlier introduced to Lake Victoria but after sometime it was evaluated that native fishes got extinct and the Nile Perch become very huge in size.

2. The cotton whitefly: Cotton whitefly are native to India but now can be found on most of the continents and have very bad impact on the fauna or agricultural plants. They have capability of transmitting upto 100 different plant viruses. find them thriving

3. The desert locust: The desert locust is a species of locust which can fly and are one of the most disastrous migratory pests in the world. They feed over green green vegetation, including pasture, crops and fodder. They have very bad impact on native flora as they are migratory pests. They are found in Africa and migrated to nearby countries such as India and damages the native flora.

4. European starlings: European starlings are the bird species which fight with native species for food and shelter. They are found in Alaska and Mexico and proved invasive in U.S. as the number of native birds decreased with their introduction.
