15. The model includes a wavy arrow to show light striking the thylakoids. Which
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks the model, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of photosynthetic process. The answer is;

d. Light is the energy source for converting ADP to ATP, and NADP+ to NADPH.

Explanation:

Light dependent reaction, which is the first stage of photosynthesis, occurs specifically in the THYLAKOID of the CHLOROPLAST where the photons of light is absorbed by chlorophyll molecules (photosynthetic pigment). The light energy that hits the chlorophyll makes it excited, hence, providing the energy to produce ATP from ADP and NADPH from NADP+.

These products are pivotal in the next stage of photosynthesis (light independent stage). Hence, light plays a very crucial role in photosynthesis and the most useful way for communicating the role is by saying it provides the energy source for converting ADP to ATP, and NADP+ to NADPH.

A homozygous recessive parent for no freckles's and heterozygous parent for freckles have a what is the of a these parent is hav
sergejj [24]

Answer:

50% chance or 1/2.

Explanation:

Let's denote the no freckles allele with f and the freckles allele with F since it is dominant over the no freckles trait.

One parent is homozygous recessive: ff

The other parent is heterozygous (So they have freckles): Ff

Let's do a Punnett Square to calculate the possibility of the offspring having freckles or not. (The Punnett Square may not be perfect)

<u>   |   F      f</u>

f  | Ff     ff

f  | Ff     ff

Two of the offspring have Ff, meaning they will have freckles, and two of the offspring have ff, meaning they will not have freckles.

2 out of 4 don't have freckles, which means a 50% chance or 1/2.
