Which is the main light-absorbing pigment for photosynthesis?

snow_tiger [21]

Photosynthesis is carried out in the chloroplasts which contain the green pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their characteristic color and it works by capturing the energy that is in the sunlight that strikes the plant. Photosynthesis is important to life on Earth because grass uses photosnthesis to produce glucose, which is used within the grass for growth. Subsequently, organisms that consume the grass obtain energy and so on. Therefore, photosynthesis is the process through which energy enters an ecosystem.

A medical test indicates that a patient has a defective protein. This

OleMash [197]

Answer:

number of nitrogen bases

Explanation:

The correct answer would be the number of nitrogen bases.

A defective protein is usually caused by mutation, which is defined a change in the DNA sequence of an organism.

Mutation can occur in a variety of ways including:

1. Deletion of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA

2. Addition (insertion) of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA

3. Duplication of nucleotide sequence in the DNA

A change in number of phosphate molecules, sequence of subunits DNA and sequence of sugar molecules if possible in nature, do not lead to mutation if the change does not affect the sequence of DNA.

Hence, the correct option is number of nitrogen bases.
