What function do chloroplasts perform

Biology
1 answer:
Scilla [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis.

Cells can make proteins that need to be transported out of the cell and moved to another part of the body. Cells also make carbo
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The proteins will be transported through exocytosis; the carbon dioxide will diffuse through the membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the passive transport of substances down their concentration gradient. The process moves the substances from the region of higher concentration to that of lower concentration. CO2 is a small molecule and does not have any charge. Small, uncharged molecules can diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Therefore, CO2 can exit a cell by simple diffusion.

On the other hand, proteins are too large to be transported by diffusion across the cell membrane. The proteins are transported by exocytosis. During exocytosis of proteins, membrane-bound vesicles are formed inside the cell. These vesicles carry proteins in them and are called secretory vesicles. The membrane of the vesicles fuse with the cell membrane of cells and transport the proteins outside the cell.

I need to know the hypothesized enzyme
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Hypotheis:

<em>If high amounts of product in the samples, '+++' , correlates with optimal temperatures and pH for enzyme activity, then...</em>

  • <u>A- Pepsin</u>
  • <u>B- Amylase </u>
  • <u> C- thermophilic enzyme</u>

Explanation:

Enzymes are specialized proteins that function as biological catalysts- <u>they speed up chemical reactions.</u> As proteins, these are susceptible to changes in temperature and pH- they function best at optimal values for both conditions, but can be denatured, rendering them inactive at relative extremes.

Each enzyme provided has its own optimal temperature and pH values.

  • Thermophilic enzymes are usually found in regions characterized by high temperatures. They show high thermostability, and do not become denatured at high temperatures- they thrive, and do not function well at lower temperatures.
  • Amylase is a hydrolase digestive enzyme found in the mouth, that acts on polysaccharides like starch to break 1,4  glycosidic bonds between glucose molecules. It works best at a physiological (neutral) pH and temperatures (around 37°)
  • Pepsin, another digestive enzyme, is a peptidase that breaks down proteins into peptide molecules. It is found in the stomach lining, where the pH  is typically low i.e. acidic due to the hydrochloric acid in digestive juices.

Thus from the table A- pepsin, B- Amylase and C- thermophilic enzyme can be hypothesized.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer: Organism in this domain can be defined as living things that has an organized structure, and responds to stimuli, and has ability to reproduce, grow, and maintain a state of equilibrium. Organisms are of two types which are unicellular and multi cellular organisms.

Explanation: unicellular organisms are organisms that are made up of only one cell which carries out all the functions needed by the oragnism. Multicellular organisms are organisms that are made up of more than one cell. These organisms uses many different cells to function.

Unicellular organisms are often found in extreme environments such as hot springs, polar ice and frozen tundra.

Unicellular organisms have cell that contain a nucleus.
