Answer:

a. the pH within the thylakoid is less than that of the stroma

Explanation:

The pH of thylakoid membrane is 8 at normal conditions but it became highly acidic like 4 during photosynthesis. The electron transport chain utilize the energy released by excited electrons to pump the H+ ions to lumen of thylakoid membrane from stroma during light reaction of photosynthesis. The H+ ions are present in both the stroma and thylakoid membranes. These high potential H+ ions are utilized by ATP synthase complex for the production of ATP.

We know that more the H+ ions lesser will be the pH and lumen have the high concentration of H+ ions. While the pH of stroma is normally kept acidic by plants to create a concentration and potential difference of H+ ions for the production of ATP. That why the lumen have lower pH than stroma of chloroplast.

Answer:

A.the pH within the thylakoid is less than that of the stroma

Explanation:

Hydrogen atom is constantly been transported into the stroma by  the NADPH2 from Kreb Cycle; and  constantly splits into Protons and  Electrons.

The electrons forms a chain of transport mechanism,(ETC) which generate  pumping energy   called Proton Motive Force.

The PMF  continuously pumps  protons into the thylakoid space, (thylakoid intramembranes)setting up electrochemical gradients.This lowers the pH, increases  the acidity of the thylakoid and thylakoid space compare to the stroma.

Which is a result of a seasonal change (meaning a change that happens over and over at a certain time of a year)?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: C. Birds moving south when the weather gets colder

Seasonal change is the change in season due to change in abiotic factors like weather conditions, sunlight availability, wind direction etc. Seasons change from summer to winter, winter to summer, summer to spring etc. These seasonal changes affect the life of biological communities including plants and animals.  Some organisms adapt to changing seasonal conditions but others completely avoid them by migrating to other places where weather conditions are suitable for their survival. Therefore, birds moving south when the weather gets colder is because of seasonal change as birds cannot tolerate cold weather conditions.

The heat absorbed/added to the material causes the material to change its form from?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

It can, but each material has a different amount of heat it needs in order to change it’s form.

Explanation:

For example, If you heat water, it will go from the liquid stage to the gaseous stage. It will turn into vapour. So it is changing the form of said material.

This change is mainly due to the breakdown of molecules and chains which enable reactions to happen when heat is applied, since it changes those bonds between molecules.
