Which process occurs during the light dependent reaction in photosynthesis

Biology

Gnom [1K]4 years ago

Answer:

Formation of ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

During the light reaction of photosynthesis, one molecule of each of ATP and NADPH is formed and these serve as precursor for the light-independent reaction of photosynthesis. The process occur in the chloroplast of plants and can be summarized below:

  • <em>Chlorophyll within the chloroplast absorbs light, leading to the excitement of electrons within its photosystems</em>
  • <em>The excited electrons are released from the photosystems</em>
  • <em>Water molecules is split to release electrons, H+ and oxygen. The electrons replace those lost by the photosystems due to excitation</em>
  • <em>The excited electrons released by photosystems enter into the electron transfer chain and reduce NADP+ to </em><em>NADPH</em>
  • <em> The build up of H+ creates a gradient that ATP synthase enzyme uses to synthesize </em><em>ATP</em><em> from ADP.</em>

Imagine an illness that affects the function of ATP synthase in a human cell. Where is ATP synthase located in a cell? What does
Ludmilka [50]

In eukaryotes, it should be noted that the ATP synthase is located in the inner membrane of mitochondria

<h3>What is ATP synthase?</h3>

The ATP synthase is the mitochondrial enzyme that is localized in the inner membrane, where it catalyzes the synthesis of ATP driven by a flux of protons.

It should be noted that the absence of ADP, the ATP synthase will stop functioning and when this happens, the movement of protons back into the mitochondrion also stops.

The goal of aerobic respiration is simply to derive energy from macromolecules like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to carry out various energy-requiring processes. Here, the chemical energy is trapped in the form of ATP. It should be noted that aerobic cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria.

which is affected by sickle sell anemia? A. healing cuts B. transportation of oxygen C. creation of blood type D. protection aga
Katen [24]
Sickle cell is a disorder that affects the molecules in the red blood cells, particularly the hemoglobin. The hemoglobin is the molecule responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. When a person has sickle cell anemia, the red blood cells are distorted crescent shapes that do not travel in the bloodstream properly and efficiently. As a result, this disorder hampers the distribution of oxygen throughout the body.  
<span>
Anemia is the major characteristic of sickle cell disorder. A person with sickle cell anemia has low number of red blood cells that usually begin in early childhood. A person who is experiencing Sickle Cell Anemia will have multiple and repeated infections, and periodic episodes of pain. The severity of this condition varies from person to person but is common in African descents.  </span>

Which of the following conditions leads to maximal expression of the lac operon?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Lactose present, glucose absent.

Explanation:

Lac operon may be defined as a cluster of genes that regulate the metabolism of lactose in bacteria. The bacteria always prefer glucose if both glucose and lactose is present in the medium.

The conditions that causes the maximal expression of lactose is the presence of lactose and absence of glucose. This is due to the action of catabolite activator protein and cyclicAMP.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
