How many glucose molecules are made during one cycle of photosynthesis?

1 answer:

5 0

In the calvin cycle, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) is first and foremost responsible for making glucose. To make one G3P molecule, you need three turns of the calvin cycle. In the GP3 molecule, you hade 3 fixed carbon atoms. So to make a six-carbon glucose molecule, you need two GP3 molecules. Therefore it takes 6 turns of the calvin cycle (photosynthesis) to make a glucose molecule.

An increase in the greenhouse effect causes an increase in___

andriy [413]

The answer is option B "temperature." Greenhouse effect is the process of trapping the suns heat in the lower atmosphere. A increase of greenhouse effect would cause surface temperatures to rise. Which then contributes to global warming because of melting the ice bergs in cooler areas on Earth and causing waters to rise and creating storms. It's not option A because the sun gives off heat or harmful radiant waves which doesn't increase carbon dioxide levels. Wouldn't be option D because it would contribute but it wouldn't happen without a increase of temperature. It also wouldn't be option C because oxygen isn't relevant in this case.

Hope this helps.

What is the cause of the peripheral edema that often manifests with glomerulonephritis and nephrotic syndrome?.

marta [7]

Answer:

Nephrotic syndrome (also called nephrosis) happens when your kidneys start losing large amounts of protein in your urine. As your kidneys get worse, extra fluids and salt build up in your body. This causes you to have swelling (edema), high blood pressure and higher levels of cholesterol.

A daughter cell that matures to the inside of the vascular cambium becomes ______, and a daughter cell that matures to the outsi

melomori [17]

A daughter cell that matures to the inside of the vascular cambium becomes secondary xylem and a daughter cell that matures to the outside of the vascular cambium becomes secondary phloem.

The cambium divides its cells to create secondary xylem and phloem. As secondary phloem and xylem tissue builds up, the stem becomes thicker and develops wood and bark.

The kind of xylem produced by secondary growth is known as secondary xylem. In contrast, during primary growth, the primary xylem develops.
As a result, lateral growth, as opposed to vertical growth, is connected with the secondary xylem, as opposed to the primary xylem.
The procambium, which is found between the xylem axis and the phloem pole, develops into the cambium in the root.
A pattern resembling the arrangement of secondary stem is produced when xylem forms in the core and phloem on the perimeter of secondary development.
