Answer:
The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)
Explanation:
Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.
Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..
Answer:
it is made up of rays of varying frequencies
one mole of P weights about 31 grams
in one mole there are 6.022*10^23 atoms
we use the rule of threes
6.022*10^23atoms......weight..........31 grams
3.45*10^23 atoms.........weight...........x grams
x=(3.45*10^23*31)/6.022*10^23
x=106.95/6.022=<u><em>17.76 grams</em></u>
Single replacement and I know that for sure if you need me to explain i can but its Single replacement <span />
