The fulcrum is the point in any mechanical device where the moment due to weights is zero.
(Weight 1 x distance 1) - (weight 2 x distance 2) = 0
(1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) - (weight 2 x 1.2 m) = 0
weight 2 = (1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) / 1.2 m
= 2.1 Kg
Two key characteristics of a good scientific investigation are hypothesis and observation of whatever organism your studying.
Answer:
C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
Explanation:
Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.
In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.
Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
Answer:
Insulin is the key hormone of carbohydrate metabolism, it also influences the metabolism of fat and proteins. It lowers blood glucose by increasing glucose transport in muscle and adipose tissue and stimulates the synthesis of glycogen, fat, and protein
