Answer:

1.

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.

(02.03 HC)<br> Explain how science uses fossil evidence to support the theory of evolution.
nevsk [136]
The fossil record shows a sequence from simple bacteria to more complicated organisms through time, it is very reliable because it is physical evidence and by studying fossils, scientists can learn how much (or how little) organisms have changed as life developed on Earth.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

5%

Explanation:

The adrenal cortex in both males and females produce a small amount of weak androgens. One of the major weak androgen secreted by adrenal cortex is dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).

Levels of dehydroepiandrosterone secretion exhibit changes with age. The dehydroepiandrosterone secretion increases till the age of 20-24 years and falls off with increasing age after the age of 30 years in both males and females. The DHEA production at the age of 80 years is about 5% of its secretion at the age of 30 years.

The term respiration describes the exchange of gases between your blood and the air. Cellular respiration ________.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The term describes cellular respiration

Explanation:

Cellular respiration, also known as internal or tissue respiration can be represented by the equation:

C6H12O6 + 6H2O ---> 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy (in form of ATP)

From the equation, glucose from the blood is oxidized by oxygen trapped from the air by the nostrils. The main purpose of cellular respiration is to generate energy required by the body for various life activities
