Answer

         Photosynthesis is the process in which carbon dioxide and water combine together in the presence of sunlight and prepare glucose.

The process of photosynthesis is composed of two main chemical reactions, which are briefly explained.

1. Light reaction

                        It is the first chemical reaction of photosynthesis which occurs in thylakoid of chloroplast. It need light thats why known as light reaction. Raw materials use in this reaction are sunlight and water, while end product are ATP and NADH. It may be non cyclic (also known as Z-scheme) or cyclic.

2. Dark Reaction

                         Also known as Calvin cycle. this reaction don,t need light thats why known as dark reaction. it occurs in stroma of chloroplast. ATP and NADPH are raw material used in this process and glucose is the en.d product of this process

velikii [3]

Answer:

1. Signaling molecule

2. Signaling receptors

Explanation:

Hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitters, etc. serve the function of signaling molecules for cells. These molecules are released by one cell and bind to the receptors present on/in the target cells to elicit the desired response. Thereby, the signaling molecules serve in cell-cell communication.

For example, insulin hormone synthesized and released from beta cells of pancreas binds to its cell surface receptors present on the surfaces of liver cells and muscle cells to stimulate the uptake of the glucose from the blood.  

Likewise, neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic neuron bind to receptors present on the membrane of postsynaptic neuron and serve to carry the nerve impulse to the postsynaptic neuron.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: A (ATP only)

Explanation:

Both NADH and pyruvate are energy store. NADH and pyruvate can not directly be used to drive biological reaction.The metabolism of pyruvate releases energy in the form of ATP. NADH produces ATP through the electron transport chain (ETC). Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is referred to as the energy currency of the cell. ATP is used directly as energy to drive endergonic and exergonic biological reaction.

Answer is ATP only
