QUESTION 6

Not all. This fungus is a lichen, providing nutrients to the tree. The lichen gets sugars from the plant. Both benefit from this relationship.

Symbiotic Relationships of Fungi

Not all fungi feed on dead organisms. Many are involved in symbiotic relationships, including parasitism and mutualism.

Fungi as Parasites

In a parasitic relationship, the parasite benefits while the host is harmed. Parasitic fungi live in or on other organisms and get their nutrients from them. Fungi have special structures for penetrating a host. They also produce enzymes that break down the host’s tissues.

Parasitic fungi often cause illness and may eventually kill their host. They are the major cause of disease in agricultural plants. Fungi also parasitize animals, such as the insect pictured in Figure below. Fungi even parasitize humans. Did you ever have athelete’s foot? If so, you were the host of a parasitic fungus.

Which approach to ecological investigations is illustrated by Biosphere 2? Defend your classification.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is : Biosphere 2 is a model based on the creation of a miniature ecosystem with life support systems.

Explanation:

Biosphere 2 is a small model of the biosphere, which is planned by scientists and engineers, that is closed and isolated from the outside world. In this study or research, the strategy for modeling is utilized to show the performance and conduct or behavior of a real biosphere.

Researchers made a model or an artificial situation that can uphold living things. It has a scaled-down model of a tropical forest, a grassland, a sea with a coral reef, a desert, and a mangrove biosphere. In these conditions, a wide range of animal varieties was contained. Furthermore, a group of eight individuals additionally fixed themselves inside it.

What does an atomic number tell you?

gtnhenbr [62]

An atomic number of an element tells you the number of protons in every atom of that element. The number of protons is generally the same as the number of electrons too.

The mass number is the number of protons and neutrons combined.

What would happen to the concentrations of ATP, NADPH and Sugars if PSII stopped working?

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

1. ATP - decrease

2.NADPH - decrease

3. sugars - decrease

And True- Both ATP and NADPH are needed to make sugars.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a form of biosynthesis that produces glucose from the reactants; it uses energy from sunlight, along with carbon dioxide and water. It happens in the chloroplast in two phases; the light-dependent and dark reactions. In the light reaction, solar energy stimulates photosystems, formed from pigments like chlorophylls.

Chlorophyll forms photosystems of proteins known as complex proteins (PS I & PSII). PS II absorbs and moves the reaction center with light energy.

H+, and oxygen, are formed from a water molecule as it's broken apart.
From photosystem II, electrons are transferred to photosystem I.
ATP is synthesized from ADP along with inorganic phosphate.
To form NADPHH, H+ is added to NADP

If PS II no longer works, there will be less ATP, NADPH, (both used later on) and no sugars produced.

In the dark reaction, products of the light reaction are used to make sugars. Here, in the Calvin cycle, the enzyme, RuBisCO, catalyzes the fixation of CO2 with Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP).
