Answer:

In the light-independent reaction carbon dioxide gets converted into glucose, and the glucose is further required in the process of cellular respiration. The reaction is also termed as dark reaction as it does not require light, it is also known as the Calvin cycle.

During the reaction, the carbon in the carbon dioxide is fixed to ribulose-1,5 bisphosphate to produce 3-phosphoglyceric acid and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.

Some amount of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is used in the formation of glucose, while the enzyme Rubisco with the assistance of ATP transforms the remaining of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate into ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate permitting the cycle to restart again. ATP and NADPH formed at the time of light dependent reaction provide the chemical energy required to maintain the light-independent reactions.

Anna [14]

Question is incomplete. Complete Question is as follows.

Antibodies are proteins that have a lock-and-key recognition for their antigen established by the antigen-binding site on the antibody. Match the antibodies in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right.

neither anti-A nor anti-B

anti-O

anti-AB

anti-A

anti-A and anti-B

anti-B

1) People who have the A antigen on the surface of their red blood cells have __________antibodies in their plasma.

2) People who have the B antigen on the surface of their red blood cells have ___________ antibodies in their plasma.

3) People who have both A and B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells have ____________ antibodies in their plasma.

4) People who have neither A nor B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells have _________ antibodies in their plasma.

Answer:

1) People who have the A antigen on the surface of their red blood cells have <u>anti-B </u> antibodies in their plasma.

2) People who have the B antigen on the surface of their red blood cells have <u> anti-A </u> antibodies in their plasma.

3) People who have both A and B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells have <u>neither anti-A nor anti B</u> antibodies in their plasma.

4) People who have neither A nor B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells have <u> both anti-A and anti-B antibodies</u> in their plasma.

Explanation:

The antigen present on the surface of the RBC determines the blood group of the person.

The type of antigen present on the RBC determines that which antibody will be present in the blood. Always opposite antibody is present in the blood in order to prevent the reaction of antigen antibody and prevent agglutination.

For example For A antigen , anti A antibody will never be present, always anti-B antibody will be present because if anti-A antibody will be present, it will react with the A antigen resulting in the agglutination of the blood.

similarly all the other blood group antigens are varying with the antibodies.

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

Chloroplasts are found in Eukaryotic Autotrophs i.e. those who can make their own food with the help of sunlight using carbon dioxide and water. Eukaryotes are Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within a nuclear envelope.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Example:</h3>

The Example of Eukaryotic Autotrophs are Plants and Algae. They are the producers in the food chain also the main source of the oxygen, as they use Carbon Dioxide for a glucose's carbon structure and releases oxygen as By-Product.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Why are they green?</h3>

Chloroplasts get their green color by the presence of chlorophyll, which is the main site for the process of photosynthesis. It is a green photosynthetic pigment found in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. Chlorophyll absorbs mostly in the blue and all the other colors to the lesser extent while reflecting green. They are present in leaves, and as the chlorophyll reflect green color, Thus the leaves look green to us.
