Answer:

Cell organelles are small structures that exist within cells and perform specialized functions

Based upon the presence and absence of membrane cell organelles can be classified into three types:

  1. Membrane less: Cell organelle that lack membrane for example ribosomes they are not bounded by any membrane.
  2. Single membraned: Cell organelle that are bounded by single membrane but they are only found in Eukaryotic cell. For example lysosome, Endoplasmic reticulum, lysosome, vacuole.
  3. Double membraned: Cell organelle that are bounded by double membrane. Example chloroplast and mitochondria, they are only present in eukaryotic cell.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

mitochondria  

Explanation:

Mitochondria are organelles found in eukaryotic cells that are capable of generating the main part of the energy required for the cellular biochemical reactions. In addition, mitochondria are also involved in distinct biological functions including, among others, cell signaling, death, differentiation and growth. It is believed that mitochondria evolved from prokaryotic organisms which introduced inside others to form eukaryotic cells, this theory is known as the 'endosymbiotic theory'.

1) what happens to the carbon atom during photosynthesis (the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions)
dangina [55]
Photosynthesis and metabolism are among the most complex areas in biology so given the nature of this forum I've kept the answers simple and brief.

Carbon is of central importance to all biological systems due to its special bonding properties allowing it to form various bonds with other atoms and produce a wonderfully complex range of molecules used by life.

In photosynthesis inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide gas is fixed to hydrogen to produce sugar, an organic molecule. In this case the carbon gains electrons so it is 'reduced' and this process requires energy in the form of light. Once in sugar form, the process can be reversed and the carbon can be oxidised back into carbon dioxide during cellular respiration, releasing energy.

So in photosynthesis, the carbon from carbon dioxide is reduced to form a sugar molecule. When transitioning to respiration, the carbon in the sugar is oxidised to form carbon dioxide again in the reverse reaction to photosynthesis.

The carbon is transferred between molecules through various intermediate steps during these processes, involving enzymes (biological catalysts) to assist in cleaving specific bonds at each stage. During cellular respiration (an energy release reaction) as the carbon is successively oxidised electrons are liberated that are used as part of the energy release. These electrons are captured or 'carried' by special organic molecules called NAD and FAD (reducing them) which in turn can then be oxidised to produce the universal energy currency of life: ATP molecules. ATP is a small bio molecule containing a high energy phosphorous bond that can be broken to release energy to do cellular work. It is used by all life that we know of and is the ultimate product of cellular respiration.
