Explain how a carbon atom in a CO2 molecule in the air can become part of a cellulose molecule in a plant
Kay [80]
Your carbon atom enters the leaf as CO2 (carbon dioxide) from the atmosphere. <span>In the leaf, chlorophyll uses the energy from the sun to convert CO2 and H2O to the sugar glucose, C6H12O6. Your carbon atom is part of this molecule; it is now one of the carbons in the glucose. </span>
<span>Next, the glucose carrying your carbon atom is sent down the phloem tissue of the carrot plant to the root, which is the carrot itself. </span><span>Enzymes in the carrot root connect the glucose molecule with your carbon atom into a chain with other glucose molecules, forming cellulose, or plant starch, and there you go. Your carbon atom went from being part of an atmospheric gas to a starch via photosynthesis and starch formation in the root. </span>
<span>I hope that helps!</span>

A student made a model of an ecosystem inside a sealed plastic bottle. She
Anton [14]

It illustrates the cycling of matter, just like in a natural ecosystem.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The natural stable ecosystem is defined as the ecosystem which has the members doing their part of job and each and every member contribute to the stability of the ecosystem by completing food chains.

Here in this bottle ecosystem the boy put the stones, rocks, water which gives proper nutrition to the growing plants and animals which are also introduced by the boy. The plants produce oxygen and consume carbon dioxide whereas the animals consume oxygen and produce carbon dioxide. Thus the cycle is maintained and stability is achieved.

What organelle does the mRNA strand go to so protein synthesis can start?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The mRNA strands go to the cytoplasm to meet ribosomes so protein synthesis can start.

Explanation:

In protein synthesis, the first step is to <em>synthesize messenger RNA</em>, mRNA. The coping process of the DNA section for the desired protein is called <u><em>transcription</em></u>, and it happens in the <em>nucleus</em>. After that, it occurs <em><u>translation</u></em>, when the formed <em>mRNA moves to the </em><em>cytoplasm</em> through the nucleus membrane pores. Protein synthesis is initiated in the cytoplasm when mRNA meets a free ribosome, the primary structure for protein synthesis. Ribosomes are made of <em>protein and ribosomal RNA</em> and can be found in the r<em>ough endoplasmic reticulum</em> or floating in the <em>cytosol</em>. They read the mRNA code and add the correct amino acid using <em>transference RNA</em> to build the protein. mARN has a <em>start and end codon</em> that tells where to start and stop adding amino acids. When the ribosome reaches the end codon, it means that protein synthesis is finished. The new protein is driven to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and translocated to the lumen. Once there, the protein suffers a few modifications, one of them is <em>folding</em> to become functional. Finally, protein is transported by vesicles to the Golgi complex, and from there to its final destiny.
