Explain how energy from the sun converts water and carbondioxide into food for plant

Biology
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]2 years ago

Photons of sunlight enter the plant through the leaves and the plant uses this energy in the mesophyll cells (middle cells), more specifically in the chloroplasts, to conduct photosynthesis. The plant transports water and sugars to the plant via the xylem and phloem tubes which allows the plant to grow and thrive. Carbon dioxide is a product made by the cell which is used during glycolysis to make glucose, or sugar, which is food for the plant. The plant also produces oxygen during the process of photosynthesis which diffuses out of the plant into the atmosphere. Water is used in the process as a reactant for most of the reactions that take place. It’s there to help reactions go along and have the correct products.

The answer is; glycolysis

This process converts glucose molecule to pyruvate. It is an oxygen-independent pathway, unlike the Krebs cycle. Glycolysis occurs in the cell cytoplasm while the Krebs cycle (aerobic pathway) occurs in the mitochondria. In the presence of oxygen, the product of glycolysis, i.e pyruvate, is fed to the Krebs cycle.  If oxygen is unavailable the pyruvate is converted to lactate.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

A) Calcitonin injection

Explanation:

Parafollicular cells or C-cells of the thyroid gland produce a hormone which is involved in the regulation of calcium levels in the blood. This hormone is Calcitonin. It works in an antagonistic manner with the Parathyroid hormone (PTH). Calcitonin decreases the calcium level in the blood by increasing absorption of calcium ions in bones. In osteoporosis, when the patient is given the injection of hormone calcitonin, it produces and increase in bone mass because it negatively affects the rate of absorption of bone by the osteoclasts.

natima [27]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves travel slowest in dense matter such as solids. On the other hand, mechanical waves travel quickly through solids. For example, sound travels fastest through solids. This difference is because EM waves do not rely on the movement of particles to travel. Since they require no medium they can travel the fastest in space or other vacuums.
