elements are pure substances composed of only one kind of atom. An example that is present in the body is oxygen which is present in the lungs and also in the blood. Compounds are composed of different types of atoms which differ in ratio from one to another. an example is water. The two terms are different in structure and hence the properties.

Which of the following is a normal process of photosynthesis that could not occur if all reaction centers were inactivated by a
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A. donation of excited electrons by chlorophyll a to a primary electron acceptor

Explanation:

Photosystems are structures located at the thylakoid membrane that act to harvest energy light in order to convert it into chemical energy. Each photosystem is composed of a light-harvesting complex and a core complex, which in turn is composed of a reaction center. The photosynthetic reaction centers are multi-protein complexes that use light energy to catalyze the electron transfer across the chloroplast thylakoid membrane against a thermodynamic gradient. Moreover, antenna pigments are pigments that capture the energy from photons in order to transfer energy to other pigments in the photosystem (e.g., chlorophyll B and carotenes are antenna pigments, whereas chlorophyll A is the core pigment). Light energy absorbed by antenna pigments in the photosystems is transferred to the reaction center chlorophyll A molecules, thereby exiting electrons in the reaction center. A reaction center consists of two chlorophyll A molecules, which donate electrons to the primary electron acceptor.

What happen to the energy that was not passed on to the next tropic level?????<br> Please help AsAP
jekas [21]

Answer:

The energy that was not passed on the next tropic level is lost as heat

Explanation:

In an ecosystem flow of energy occur from one tropic level to the next one as the organism of one tropic level eats another organism belongs to the tropic level that is lower from that of previous one.

                    The 10% of total energy of one tropic level is passed to the next tropic level the rest of the energy is lost as heat in the environment.

Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to tas
dexar [7]

Complete question:

Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to taste it. Which couples could possibly have both a child who tastes it and a child who does not?​

a. father AA, mother aa

b. father Aa, mother AA

c. father Aa, mother Aa

d. father AA, mother AA

Answer:

c. father Aa, mother Aa

Explanation:

According to the given information, the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide is a dominant trait and is imparted by the allele "A". This phenotype would be expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous conditions. The non-taster phenotype would be expressed in the homozygous recessive genotypes only.  

To have both taster and non-taster children, both the parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele. Among the given options, the father with genotype Aa and the mother with genotype Aa have the possibility to have both taster and non-taster children.

Aa x Aa= 3/4 taster (1/4 AA and 1/2 Aa): 1/4 non-taster (1/4 aa)
