Plant cells have mitochondria, which use glucose to produce ATP. Where does the glucose originate?

Biology

Romashka [77]3 years ago

Plant produces glucose in the chloroplast through the process of photosynthesis. Calvin cycle is basically the biological process through which glucose is produced. The steps involved are as follows:

1. Absorbed CO2 is added to RuBP and 6C sugar is formed.

2. Breaking of 6C sugar into two  3-phosphoglycerate molecules

3. ATP gives phosphate group  to form 3-phosphoglycerate which is later on converted into 1,3-biphosphoglycerate.

4. Electons are required by 1,3-biphosphoglycerate to an aldehyde called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate or G3P and these electrons are donated by NADPH

5. Enzyme aldolase uses two molecules of G3P to produce 6 C sugar called  fructose-1,6-biphosphate which is further converted to fructose-6-phosphate

6. Enzyme  isomerase converts fructose-6-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate

Answer: The glucose in the plant originates from the cellular process known as photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The glucose in the plant cell originates from the process photosynthesis which takes place in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.

The carbon dioxide is combined with water in the leaves of the plant to get converted into glucose.

The light energy is converted into chemical energy. Oxygen is also released as a by-product of this process. The oxygen produced by the plants is also used for the conversion of glucose into ATP in mitochondria.

In humans, to fold the tongue is a dominant trait (L), and the straight tongue is the recessive trait. What are the probabilitie
kaheart [24]

The given question is incomplete as the genotype of the parents is not given, so the answer is providing in the followings case:

1. dominant parent and recessive parent

2. heterozygous parents

Answer:

1. dominant parent and recessive parent:

dominant parents can be represented by LL and recessive parent is represented by ll, so the gametes would be L, L and l, l.

so,

 L    L

l  Ll   Ll

l  Ll   Ll

so there are all offspring in heterozygous condition as we known one or two dominant allele masks the recessive allele for the trait so 100% offspring can fold their tongue.

2. heterozygous parents

In this case, parents have Ll genotype and gametes would be L and l for each parent so,

    L    l

L   LL  Ll

l    Ll    ll

In this case, one is pure dominant and two heterozygous whereas only one is recessive so, the phenotype of offspring that cant fol the tongue would be:

3/4 = 75%

When a substance abuse treatment program is acquired by another program, what is the the next course of actions?
Bezzdna [24]

When a substance abuse treatment program is acquired by another program, the next course of action is that <u>if any patients refuse consent to transfer, those records maybe destroyed or retained in compliance with the statue of limitations</u>

Explanation:

The Substance Abuse Confidentiality Regulations devised by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration provides confidentiality to the patients undergoing a treatment program for substance abuse.  

Under this regulation, section 2.19 details and sets forth rules to follow when a program is acquired by another program.

This states that the program must either purge the identifying details of the patient from its records or destroy it until or unless the patient consents for the transfer of details or information in the records.

This condition can be exceptional in compliance with the statute of limitations and the records can be retained, like in case of any legal requirements .

Suppose you plant a seed and observe that a tree of large mass grows from it.The tree achieves a final mass that changes very li
Nadya [2.5K]

The answer should be

B Both anabolic and catabolic reactions took place in the seed and tree when it was young and growing and both continue now even though the tree reached a stable mass.


The trees should be capable to do both anabolic and catabolic reaction when it is seed or when it is already a big tree. Anabolic reaction happens when the plant making bigger molecule from many smaller molecule, such as in photosynthesis. Anabolic reaction could increase the mass of the plants or be used to make food. Catabolism reaction used to extract energy from the food.
