The correct answer is: A. hydrolysis of ATP to ADP

This step occurs in the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis.

Calvin cycle is the second phase of photosynthesis also called light-independent reactions (no light required for this step). This process occurs in in the stroma (the inner space of chloroplasts) and during it three-carbon sugars are produced from CO2. Calvin cycle can be divided into three steps:

1. Carbon fixation where CO2 from the air is “apsorbed” by plants and combined with a five-carbon acceptor molecule, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP). Formed molecule with 6 C atoms is then split into two 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA) molecules by the enzyme rubisco.

2. Reduction refers to conversion of 3-PGA to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), sugar that can be used in further steps of photosynthesis. NADP+ is reduced to NADPH.

3. Regeneration refers to recycle of some G3P in order to regenerate the RuBP acceptor for the carbon fixation.

The mass of some corn plants at the end of their growth period was 6 tons per acre. Most of this mass was produced from?
Aleksandr [31]
<span>The majority of mass of any plant is produced from water from the soil and carbon dioxide with sunlight from the air. 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + sunlight ---> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ... The gluclose (C6H12O6) is a simple sugar that becomes the biomass of the plant. Other minor contributors to the mass are from fertilizers (mostly N, P, and K) and minerals.</span>

What is the only crainial nerve that enters and leaves the skull?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The answer is the accessory nerve.

Explanation:

We have 12 pairs of cranial nerves, the accessory nerve is the XI pair. This is responsible for the innervation of the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles.

The fibers of the accessory nerve originate from neurons that are located in the upper spinal cord. These fibers join together forming roots and once the nerve is constituted, it enters the skull through the great hole that is located at the base of the skull.

Then, the nerve continues its path along the inside of the skull in the direction of the jugular hole and then leaves the skull next to the glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) and the vagus (X).

Thus, the accessory nerve enters and leaves the skull again, characterized by being the only cranial nerve which has this behavior.
