The correct answer for this question is (D) It can proceed in the dark.

Calvin cycle is named after Melvin C. Calvin, who won a Nobel prize in chemistry for finding it in 1961. Calvin cycle take place in chloroplasts during photosynthesis and it is a <u>light-independent reaction so also called as dark reaction.</u>

The Calvin cycle proceeds in three stages:

1. Carboxylation, during which CO2 combines with ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate

2. Reduction, during which carbohydrate is formed at the expense of photochemically made ATP and NADPH

3. Regeneration during which the CO2 acceptor ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate is formed again so that the cycle continues.

The portion of the tubule system that is relatively impermeable to solutes but contains many aquaporins for water reabsorption
topjm [15]

Descending limb of loop of Henle

It helps to maintain the concentration of urine. It is highly permeable to water thus water is readily reabsorbed from the descending limb by osmosis. It is impermeable to sodium and chloride ions.

<h3>What is a Tubule system ?</h3>

The transverse tubular system is a network of interconnecting rings, each of which surrounds a myofibril

  • The nephron uses four mechanisms to convert blood into urine: filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion. These apply to numerous substances

  • The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and collecting duct (CD) are the final two segments of the kidney nephron. They have an important role in the absorption of many ions, and in water reabsorption.

Based on what you know about the regulation of cell growth, make a list of questions you would ask as you observe the cells.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

1. What genes control the growth of cell growth?

2. What is the purpose of this regulation?

3. What happened when the cell growth is not regulated?

Explanation:

What genes control the growth of cell growth? What is the purpose of this regulation? What happened when the cell growth is not regulated?

Above are the questions which an observe would ask about regulation of cell growth. A number of genes such as oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are involved in the regulation of cell growth and cell division. Regulation of cell growth process ensures that a cell's DNA which is dividing is copied properly as well as repair errors in the DNA. It also ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes in order to gain healthy daughter cells.
