Passive transport can only occur when there is a concentration gradient of low to high for a substance?

Biology
1 answer:
velikii [3]3 years ago

<span>FALSE. Passive transport unlike active transport does not require energy or an outside force to act upon it in order to create an even gradient. As shown in diffusion, and osmosis we can see gases and liquids easily perform passive transport when high and low gradients are present, this continues until they are equal.</span>

Describe several actions caused by the release of epinephrine.
mihalych1998 [28]
Epinephrine is also known as adrenaline. It is produced by both the adrenal glands and the certain neurons. It is used to treat some conditions like cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis and more. Its actions vary by tissue type and tissue expression of then receptors. It is binding to a variety of adrenergic receptors.It also help to increase peripheral resistance.

describe and explain the adaptations of sperm and ovum that enables fertilisation and early development of the embryo to occur​
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The adaptations of the sperm and egg that allow fertilization to take place, and copulation occurs for the sperm to be deposited. These sperm penetrate the cervix and travel to the fallopian tube. There, they must find an oocyte, which is released in the process of ovulation.

<h3>What is fertilization and embryo development?</h3>

In the first weeks after fertilization, the zygote makes many changes and develops rapidly. The first eight weeks of development is known as the organogenic period and is the embryonic stage of development. This period is a crucial phase of development for the embryo's organs.

With this information, we can conclude that The first three days of embryonic development occur in the fallopian tube as the embryo moves from the ovary to the uterus. Cell division continues and forms a hollow ball of cells (the blastocyst). Six days after fertilization, the embryo begins implantation into the lining of the uterus.

1.Write the equation for light dependent reaction of photosynthesis
Annette [7]

Answer:

1. The overall chemical equation of the light-dependent reactions is given below:

12 H₂O + 12 NADP+ + 18 ADP + 18 Pi + light and chlorophyll ----> 6 O₂ + 12 NADPH + 18 ATP

2. The overall chemical equation for the light-independent reactions of the Calvin cycle is given below :

3 CO₂+ 6 NADPH + 5 H₂O + 9 ATP → glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) + 2 H+ + 6 NADP+ + 9 ADP + 8 Pi

Explanation:

1. The light-dependent reactions convert light energy into chemical energy, producing ATP and NADPH which are used light-independent reactions to drive the synthesis of sugar molecules from inorganic CO₂ and water. Light-dependent reactions takes place in photosystem I and II. Photosystem I and Photosystem II ( PS I and PS II) are the two biochemical systems, active in chloroplasts, that serve as sites of electron transfer reactions in photosynthesis. Energy from sunlight is used to split water which releases electrons and hydrogen atoms which are transferred to NADP+ to produce ATP and NADPH and oxygen is produced as a waste product.

The overall chemical equation of the light-dependent reactions is given below:

12 H₂O + 12 NADP+ + 18 ADP + 18 Pi + light and chlorophyll ----> 6 O₂ + 12 NADPH + 18 ATP. Note that Pi refers to inorganic phosphate

2. The Calvin cycle refers to the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis. It occurs in three stages.

Stage 1 (Carbon fixation): In this first stage of the Calvin cycle, light-independent CO₂ is fixed by enzyme called ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBisCO) to ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to form glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.

Stage2: ATP and NADPH are used to reduce 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) into glyceraldehyde--phosphate (G3P). ATP and NADPH are used up in the process and are converted to ADP and NADP+, respectively.

Third stage: RuBP is regenerated, which enables the system to prepare for more CO2 to be fixed.

The overall chemical equation for the light-independent reactions of the Calvin cycle is given below :

3 CO₂+ 6 NADPH + 5 H₂O + 9 ATP → glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) + 2 H+ + 6 NADP+ + 9 ADP + 8 Pi
