These organisms obtain energy through chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis

Biology
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Autotrophs

Explanation:

Some rare autotrophs produce food through a process called chemosynthesis, rather than through photosynthesis. Autotrophs that perform chemosynthesis do not use energy from the sun to produce food. Instead, they make food using energy from chemical reactions, often combining hydrogen sulfide or methane with oxygen.

Which is an example of a substitution mutation?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG

Explanation:

Changes occur in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule. These changes referred to as MUTATION are usually due mistakes during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substances). Mutation can be of different types depending on the kind of change that occured to the nucleotide sequence. Based on this question, one of the mutation types is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.

Substitution mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base replaces another in the sequence.

The option that suits an example of substitution mutation is: CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG because Guanine nucleotide replaces Cytosine nucleotide in the third CODON i.e. TAC becomes TAG.

Adaptations of the chloroplast​
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Chloroplasts are the ’solar energy plants’ of a cell – they convert light energy into chemical energy

This chemical energy may be either ATP (light dependent) or organic compounds (light independent)

Only photosynthetic tissue possess chloroplasts (e.g. is present in leaves but not roots of plants)

Chloroplasts are thought to have once been independent prokaryotes that were internalised by eukaryotes via endosymbiosis

They have a double membrane structure (due to vesicular coating as part of the endocytotic process)

They have their own DNA (circular and naked) and ribosomes (70S)

Their metabolic processes are susceptible to certain antibiotics

The structure of the chloroplast is adapted to the function it performs:

Thylakoids – flattened discs have a small internal volume to maximise hydrogen gradient upon proton accumulation 

Grana – thylakoids are arranged into stacks to increase SA:Vol ratio of the thylakoid membrane

Photosystems – pigments organised into photosystems in thylakoid membrane to maximise light absorption

Stroma – central cavity that contains appropriate enzymes and a suitable pH for the Calvin cycle to occur

Lamellae – connects and separates thylakoid stacks (grana), maximising photosynthetic efficiency
