The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis, also known as the Calvin cycle, use and produce a variety of molecules. Sort

the molecules below into three categories; molecules brought in and used in the Calvin cycle, molecules produced during the Calvin cycle that leave the cycle, and molecules used and regenerated within the Calvin cycle.*ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)*a few of the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P)*carbon dioxide*NADP+*most of the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P)*NADPH

Molecules brought in and used in the calvin cycle - Carbon dioxide (CO_2) , Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)

Molecules produced during the calvin cycle that leave the cycle - a few of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), NADP+

Molecules used and regenerated within the calvin cycle - most of the Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) , NADPH

<u>Explanation:</u>

Calvin cycle is the light independent reaction that takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast. Calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH produced during the light reaction. Calvin cycle occurs in 3 steps, they are:

1. Carbon fixation - (CO_2) combines with Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to form 2 molecules of 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA).

2. Reduction - ATP and NADPH is used to convert 3-PGA into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P).

3. Regeneration - some G3P molecule form glucose while other regenerates to form RuBP acceptor.

During an experiment, Harry enclosed two leaves of a plant in glass flasks labeled A and B. Flask A had water and carbon dioxide
Evgesh-ka [11]
The answer here is THE LEAF IN FLASK B WILL NOT GET CARBON DIOXIDE TO MAKE GLUCOSE. In order to carry out photosynthesis, plant needs several ingredients. It needs  chlorophyll, the green coloring pigment in plants, sunlight, water and carbon dioxide. To nurture growth, plant needs a favorable medium (usually good soil but there are also those that can grow attached to another plant and those called aerial plants) and nutrients. Carbon dioxide is one of the most abundant gases in the atmosphere. It plays an important role in both plant (photosynthesis) and animal (respiration) processes. In photosynthesis, green plants convert carbon dioxide and water into food compounds such as glucose and water. The oxygen released during photosynthesis is needed by animals, human also, for respiration. Potassium hydroxide, on the other hand, is an inorganic solid compound which absorbs carbon dioxide. During experiments, plants placed inside a solution with potassium hydroxide will test negative in starch test. Absence of starch is attributed to the absorption of carbon dioxide by potassium hydroxide. Photosynthesis did not happen because of the absence of one of its ingredients which is carbon dioxide,hence absence of one of the end products, starch.

Answer: Below

Explanation:

Alligators play an important role in maintaining ecosystem balance. Sitting at the top of the food chain, alligators are top predators and help keep other animal populations in balance. By digging holes and leaving trails throughout marshes, they create habitats for fish and marine invertebrates

When there is a cut in the skin and bacteria enter the body, the immune system responds. First, macrophages approach the area of
rodikova [14]

The phagocytotic barrier, which is a part of innate immunity best describes the above scenario.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The largest organ of the body is the skin, similarly the skin also an immune barrier to the body. If there is any damage in the skin , its pH gets compromised and there it calls in for a microbial attack.

When there is a cut in the skin and bacteria enter the body, the immune system responds. First, macrophages approach the area of the cut. Next, the macrophages surround any bacterial cells and engulf them, the Phagocytosis  barrier which is the part of the innate immunity
