Answer:

rod photoreceptors

Explanation:

The retina of the eye has 2 types of sensory receptors or photoreceptors. They are the rod cells and the cone cells. The rod cells mostly found at the outer edge of the retina of the eye, which are numerous and more sensitive compared to the cone cells. The cone photoreceptors are found in the macula.

The rod photoreceptors are responsible for night vision mainly and function in dim light or less intense light, while the cone receptors are responsible for color sensitivity.  

The rod photoreceptors are responsible for processing his ability to see objects in the darkness.

Answer:

As light intensity increases to 800 (units), the rate of photosynthesis also increases. This is because a higher light intensity results in an increased rate of the light dependent reaction. However, when light intensity increases above 800, the rate of photosynthesis remains constant. This is because the light intensity is no longer the limiting factor, meaning that something else must be limiting the rate of photosynthesis. This could be carbon dioxide concentration or water availability. CO2 is required for the light independent stage of photosynthesis (the Calvin cycle) whereas water is required to produce H+ and e- for the electron transport chain.

Explanation:

I hope this would be enough to get the 4 marks. The main point is that the rate does not increase each time light intensity increases, because there is a limiting factor that is affecting the rate of the light independent reaction.

Which kind of molecule passes through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane?
Setler79 [48]
Because the membrane is made of lipids, typically fat-soluble (non-polar) molecules are able to pass easily. In addition, smaller, uncharged polar molecules can also pass through. Use the attached diagram to help you understand.
