larisa [96]

Answer:

The diagram can be improved by:

                                  Lungs

                                       ↓

                                   oxygen

                                       ↓

                      Red blood cells (carrying oxygen)

                                       ↓

                  Organs (like stomach and liver etc) from where carbon    

                               is taken and oxygen is supplied

                                         ↓

                   RBC's carrying Carbon dioxide to the lungs

The component which is missing in the diagram are the organs where exchange of gases occurs. The red blood cells carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to all parts of the body and carries the wast carbon dioxide gas from them back to the lungs. The carbon dioxide is then exhaled by the lungs.

Photosynthesis occurs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. How do the locations where photosynthesis occurs differ in prokaryotes
mamaluj [8]

Answer/Explanation:

In eukaryotes, photosynthesis occurs mainly in green plants. These organisms have specialized organelles called chloroplasts that carry out photosynthesis. These contain photoreceptors that absorb photons from the sun through a pigment called chlorophyll, providing the energy to synthesise glucose from carbon dioxide and water.

In contrast, prokaryotes that carry out photosynthesis are able to do so because they have folds in the plasma membrane that permit the attachment of chlorophyll. They do not have specialized membrane-bound organelles like eukaryotes.
