Where do the enzymatic reactions of the calvin cycle take place?

Answer: The stroma

Explanation:

The Calvin cycle consists of a series of biochemical reactions that take place in photosynthetic organisms, such as plants. CO2 binds to an organic molecule, before its reduction by the action of NADPH, in a cyclic process that leads to glucose synthesis.

In plants, carbon dioxide enters the leaves through pores called stomas and diffuses into the chloroplast, the site where the reactions of photosyntesis occur, and where sugar is synthesized.

The reactions of the Calvin cycle are responsible for the fixation of CO2 by incorporating it into the individual's organic matter in the form of glucose through the enzyme RuBisCo. This process is stimulated by the ATP and NADPH that come from the luminous reactions, and depends on them. However, these reactions are also called light-independent reactions, because light does not cause them directly.

Unlike light-dependent reactions, which occur in the tilacoidal membrane, these reactions of the Calvin cycle take place in the stroma, which is the inner space of chloroplasts.

scientists have used mtDNA as a molecular clock to trace human evolution and early migration routes explain why mtDNA would be m

melisa1 [442]

An unknown mtDNA sample sample is matched to a sample of mtDNA that was found at the crime scene. This is how mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) typing is used in forensic science.

Unlike nuclear DNA typing, mtDNA isolation is quite easy because its number is quite large. mtDNA copies rang from 100 to 10,000 per cell. It is also more stable and stronger than the nuclear DNA; that is why even unsolved cases from years ago use mtDNA typing as reference for possible conclusion.

Are genes a segment of DNA containing a set of instructions for making a protein ?

brilliants [131]

Answer: The given statement is True.

Gene can be described as the segment of DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid), which codes for a particular protein. The protein thus formed, corresponds to a specific trait ( such as skin color, hair color, color of eye) of the individual organism.

They possess set of instructions for making a protein in the form of nucleotide sequences. Gene undergo transcription to form mRNA ( messenger RNA), which is then converted into particular protein through translation.

Genes are inherited from parents by their offspring and in this way specific traits are inherited by offspring from their parents.

Thus, given statement in the question is correct.

Bang-up Motors will rent-a-wreck for $25 plus $0.15 per mile traveled. The rental cost is a function of the miles traveled a. Id

Kay [80]

A. The variables in the problem include the miles traveled, the cost to rent the car and the cost per mile traveled in the car.
b. The rate of change in the problem is the amount of payment that is expected per mile traveled.
c.The y-intercept is the total cost of the miles traveled without including the deposit.
d. A straight-line function will work for this problem, where y = mx + c.
m = $0.15, c = $25 and x = total miles traveled.
e. y = ($0.15)(1200) + $25
= $180 + $25
= $205
