A potted geranium sits in a windowsill absorbing sunlight. How does a root cell (which is not exposed to light) obtain energy to

do cellular work such as active transport across its membrane?
options:

ATP is made in the leaves via photosynthesis and moved to the root.


Sugar is made in the leaves via photosynthesis and moved to the root.


The root cell makes ATP by cellular respiration using material absorbed from the soil.


The root cell makes sugar using the dark reactions (Calvin cycle) of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Sugar is made in the leaves via photosynthesis and moved to the root.

Sugars made in the leaves via photosynthesis are stored elsewhere and transported to the root system. They are then available for respiration and oxidative phosphorylation which do not require light energy. The

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy in the form of molecules of glucose is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide while oxygen (from the light reaction) is released.

 

Further Explanation:

Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes glucose along with oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’s cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis). Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. Electrons continue to move down the chain and the energy they release is used in pumping H+ to produce ATP from ATP synthase. At the end of the ETC molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water.

What are three ways a synthetic polymers affect the environment
nadezda [96]
There are two types of polymers, which are natural and synthetic. Although natural polymers do not affect the environment, synthetic polymers do.Synthetic polymers are anything that is manufactured or influenced by humans. Due to this, these types of polymers release reactants which are hazardous; both to humans and the environment.Synthetic polymers, which include plastics, rubber, How do polymers effect the environment?adhesives, and Styrofoam cannot be degraded into the environment, causing a buildup of these chemicals all at once, causing a release of any "excess" chemicals into the environment.From there on, polymers create garbage loads, and chemical reactants that effect the environment, and spread around. Therefore effecting anything grown or eaten around it. This could call chemical poisoning to the greenery, animals, and living organisms around it. Not all polymers are bad. In fact humans are made up of polymers. But polymers from sources such as crude oil synthesized into plastics release toxins as they break down. When you burn plastics synthesized from crude oil feedstock, carbon dioxide and dioxins can be released into the air if smoke is not properly <span>What are the bad effects of polymers on your environment?filtered as they are in high quality waste-to-energy incinerators.

Therefore plastics are banned in some areas.

What was the environment in early earth would we have been able to survive it? Why or why not
Art [367]

Answer:

Without an oxygen atmosphere very few things could live on the early Earth. Anaerobic bacteria were probably the first living things on Earth. The early Earth had no oceans and was frequently hit with meteorites and asteroids.
