Answer: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a metabolic process in which light is transformed into stable chemical energy, converting inorganic matter into organic matter.

This process is mainly divided in two parts:

-Light-dependent reactions (also called light reactions)

-Light-independent reactions (also called dark reactions).

In the case of light reactions, the light is used by the plant to produce organic energy molecules, being the coenzyme Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) the final electron acceptor.

It should be noted, this coenzyme is also involved in the dark phase of photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) is fixed into carbohydrates.

What information and measurements would you need to calculate the rate of movement?

aliina [53]

When you talk about rate, you will expect that it will be in terms of a time unit. It measures how fast it is going. So, you would expect that the denominator is in time units. For the movement, you can measure this with either distance or velocity.

So, for the first variety, you would need distance and time to measure the rate of how far you go at a certain time. It is also called as velocity. For the second variety, you would need velocity and time to measure the rate of how fast you are going at a certain interval. It is also called as acceleration.

Why can an object still be seen when it is at absolute zero?

zavuch27 [327]

As the temperature goes down, the chaotic motion (velocity) of atoms start decreasing. If the temperature hits the absolute zero (which, in reality, is impossible to achieve), the atoms of the body would freeze, making the body still and stiff. One thing to note here is that the atoms do not get destroyed when the temperature reaches the absolute zero. That is the reason why the object can still be seen when it is at absolute zero.

Why is water considered to be a complex compound

DedPeter [7]

$HEY THERE !!$

$\huge{COMPOUND:-}$
Compounds contain two or more different elements.

Water is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds . Water is also a compound because it is made from more than one kind of element. (oxygen and hydrogen).

So If you like, you can say that water is a molecular compound.
