Answer:

The correct answer is 7.5 ml

Explanation:

The medicine contains 100 mg in 5 ml, that means that the concentration of the active ingredient is 100 mg/5 ml= 20 mg/ml

If we divide a concentration (in mg/ml) into a mass (in mg) we obtaine a volume (in mL). Thus, in order to calculate the mililiters of medicine which contain 150 mg of the active, we have to only divide mass (150 mg) into the concentration of active ingredient as follows:

mL = \frac{150 mg}{20 mg/mL}= 7.5 mL

In chloroplasts, when the two photosystems work in series, electrons ejected from the photosystems do not return to them, which
cricket20 [7]

When electrons do not return to the photosystems, it is because of a process known as oxygenic photophosphorylation, a process that is key to photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants get their energy. This process involves many steps taken in order to turn energy from light, into sugar and molecular energy known as ATP, needed for plants to survive. This process uses a variety of important and complex steps, among which is included oxygenic photophosphorylation.

Oxygenic photophosphorylation is one of the key processes to photosynthesis. It involves the use of photosystems <u>one </u>and <u>three</u>, located in the thylakoid membrane of plant cells, in order to produce NADPH and ATP. These systems enter a state of photoactivation, releasing an electron to be carried by the NADPH molecule towards the Calvin cycle where the electron can be placed onto a carbon atom, for long-term storage, often as a carbohydrate.
