Which of the following statements concerning photosynthesis is NOT true?

Biology
2 answers:
AleksandrR [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: c. During photosynthesis, the hydrogen carrier is NAD

Explanation:

The photosynthesis is a process that occurs in the chloroplast organelle of the plant cells. The typical light reaction of the photosynthesis takes place inside the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. The chief reactants such as water and carbon dioxide participate in the reaction. The water gets oxidized in the reaction to release the oxygen as a product. The carbon dioxide get reduced.

The light accepted by the pigment chlorophyll in the chloroplast basically transfers the electron and hydrogen from water to the acceptor that is called as NADP⁺.

Answer:

c. During photosynthesis, the hydrogen carrier is NAD

Explanation:

The co-factor  during photosynthesis is  Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phospahte .(NADP), and not NAD.The latter is a coenzyme in cellular respiration  for ferrying H+(as NADH+) together with FADH+ from Kreb's Cycle into the matrix of mitochondria for oxidative phospshorylation, needed  for ATPs synthesis,

NADPH  is a co-factor, needed as  reducing agent in photosynthesis's cyclic and non cyclic photophosphorylation reactions.Therefore option C is not true.

Red-green color blindness is a recessively inherited disorder that affects 7% of the male population but only 0.4% of the female
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Men express all the X-linked genes present in their genome.

Explanation:

Human males have one copy of X and one copy of Y chromosomes. They express all the alleles present on their X chromosome irrespective of its dominant or recessive nature. This occurs because males do not have a second copy of the X chromosome to carry another allele for the same gene. Color blindness is caused by a recessive allele present on the X chromosome. Males carrying one copy of this allele exhibit the disease while females need two copies of the allele of color blindness to express the disease. Therefore, males are more frequently affected by this disease.

Which of the following statements about the small intestine is false?A. The inside of the small intestine is called the lumen.B.
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Microvilli are lined with blood vessels as well as lymphatic vessels.

Explanation:

The small intestine is one of the most important part of the body. This is the main site of digestion and absorption of food in the body. The three main parts of small intestine - dedenum, jejenum and ileum.

The small intestine has both villi and microvilli in its structure. These villi helps in increase in the surface area for absorption. Microvilli are lined with the blood vessels only and not with the lymphatic vessel. This vessels are directly connected to the hepatic portal system.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Which of the following holds true for energy coupling? Energy is released in an exergonic reaction./ Energy is transferred from
alekssr [168]
<span>The answer is energy is transferred from an exergonic process to an endergonic one. That is what energy coupling is. The exergonic process will release free energy and this free energy will be absorbed by the endergonic process. It can also drive the endergonic process. </span>

Suppose that a mutation in a coat color gene of a mouse alters an enzyme such that it produces a red pigment instead of the wild
serg [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - gain of function, and dominant.

Explanation:

A mutation in which the gene that altered carries out the production of the product that has a new pattern of gene expression or a new molecular function.

Function mutations are always gain by almost always Dominant or in some rare cases semi-dominant so, the mutation in a coat color gene of a mouse alters an enzyme such that it produces a red pigment instead of the wild type, which is tan. This is a gain of function mutation, which is most likely dominant.

The correct answer is - gain of function, and dominant.
