Explain that water moves down a water potential gradient, and the salt solution has a lower water potential than the vacuole so water leaves the vacuole through osmosis
In exam Q's key points are:
- Water potential gradient
- Higher water potential in vacuole
- Leaves through osmosis
The object is balanced against standard units of mass
The correct answer is option C
The original source of energy is the sun while most of the energy in the organisms is used in the form of energy. The energy from the sun is used by the green plants to make food by the process of photosynthesis and this food is used by the human beings and animals. The energy in animals and human is in the form of ATP.
Answer/Explanation:
Using solar energy, photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen, whereas respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide and water.
Therefore, photosynthesis and respiration act as a cycle, using reverse reactants and products.
Photosynthesis builds food for the cell to use, respiration uses this food to power cellular processes.
