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.

Darina [25.2K]
Some isotopes are radioactive, which makes them suitable for medical imaging procedures. Radioactive isotopes have found a wide range of use in medicine. For example, they are used as tracers for diagnostic as well as research on metabolic processes. They are also used in medical imaging procedures, these isotopes include fluorine-18, gallium-67 among many others.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Explanation:

This question appears incomplete. However, one of the main differences (in organelles) between plants and animal cells is the absence of cell wall and chloroplast in animal cells while both organelles are present in plant cells. The cell wall is outside of the cell membrane. The cell wall provides rigidity and support to the plant cell while the chloroplast is the cellular "machinery" for photosynthesis. The chloroplast contains the green pigment called chlorophyll which provides green plants with there colour and assist the plants in absorbing/capturing of sunlight/energy for the purpose of photosynthesis (self production of food by green plants).
