Why does sodium hydroxide solution affect the requirements for photosynthesis?

Biology
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]2 years ago
4 0
This is because the photosynthesis require optimum pH to be slightly alkaline. Bases, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), are necessary to raise the pH to levels that are ideal for photosynthesis to occur. 

Since, pH in soil, fresh water or groundwater becomes acidic, plant uptake and photosynthesis rates decrease.  Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) raises pH levels and can affect photosynthesis rates.

Some molecules found in foods are known to be capable of driving DNA methylation or DNA demethylation. For example, folic acid (
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: Eating excessive quantities of such molecules could deregulate this process, increasing methylation and repressing the expression of genes that should normally be expressed.

Explanation:

DNA methylation is one of the epigenetic mechanisms involved in the regulation of gene expression, because it is a process by which methyl groups are added to DNA.

Methylation then modifies the function of DNA when it is found in the promoter gene, it is essential for normal development and is associated with a number of key processes, including genomic imprinting, inactivation of the X chromosome, repression of repeating elements, aging, and carcinogenesis. Usually, <u>it acts to suppress gene transcription.</u>

For example, folic acid is essential for the rapid cell division that occurs during early fetal development and it also plays an important role in methylation and thus in gene regulation. <u>The metabolism of these vitamins is aimed at achieving adequate levels of  DNA methylation, necessary for the cellular processes</u>. Eating excessive quantities of such molecules could deregulate this process, <u>increasing methylation and repressing the expression of genes that should normally be expressed</u>.
