Answer:

Synthesis of ATP

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in two major stages viz: light dependent stage and light-independent stage. The light dependent stage involves reactions triggered by light that leads to the synthesis of ATP and NADPH molecules needed for the next stage. The light reactions occurs in the THYLAKOID MEMBRANE of the CHLOROPLAST.

Ideally, in an intact Chloroplast, energy is released by splitting water molecules, a process called PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER. This energy is then used to pump proton (H+ ions) from the stroma of the chloroplast to the thylakoid lumen, which it (H+) accumulates to form a proton pump. This proton pump is then used with the help of an enzyme called ATP synthase to synthesize ATP molecules in a process called CHEMIOSMOSIS.

However, when the thylakoid is punctured and its lumen (interior) is no longer barricaded from the stroma, the H+ will not be able to build up in the thylakoid as they will tend to freely go from the stroma to the thylakoid. Hence, no proton pump will be formed and subsequently, no ATP will be synthesized.

Organize the lengths below from shortest to longest.
Hoochie [10]

Organize the lengths below from shortest to longest.

 

28 dm ,629,000 mm ,1.2 km, 30,277 cm

To answer this, all values should be converted in the same unit just like in km

28 dm = 0.0028 km

629,000 mm = 0.629 km

1.2 km

30,277 cm = 0.30277 km

So the order is 28 dm, 30,277 cm , 629,000 mm and 1.2 km

Explain how Chromosomes are like a ball of yarn (use the words chromosome, DNA, and gene in your answer)
arlik [135]

Answer:

Chromosomes are like a ball of yarn in the sense that there are multiple components that make up the structure. Genes can be in similitude of the smallest threads in the yarn and when a multitude of genes are put together they make a DNA strand or a long, thick thread of yarn. Lastly, when DNA is twisted together, it becomes bundled together, making a chromosome or a "ball of yarn".

Why are chloroplasts absent in epidermal cells ?
const2013 [10]
<em>the function of epidermis is to protect the leaf
make it air tight 
prevent water loss as it is waxy
also it is transparent and allows all light to enter...
   chloroplast is required for carrying out process of photosynthesis...
    as epidermis is not specialized to carry out photosynthesis... so it does not have any chloroplast...</em>
