Answer: A. Succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

Mount Saint Helens volcanic eruptions was an example of ecological succession after a catastrophic event that occurred in 1980. Charlie Crisafulli was a ecologists who visited the volcanic site along with his colleagues to collect ecological data. He noted the development of ecological relationships across the volcanic landmass. He documented the types, amounts and distribution of surviving organisms, which further took forward the responsibility of colonization in a destructed habitat. This was the example of secondary succession in which succession occurs after the natural calamity has disturbed the natural ecosystem. The species living there were able to colonize the landmass again after volcanic eruption. Therefore, the succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

If the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) outside of the thylakoids were equal to the concentration of H+ inside the thylakoids

erik [133]

The chloroplasts would be unable to generate ATP

If the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) outside of the thylakoids were equal to the concentration of H+ inside the thylakoids, the chloroplasts would be unable to generate ATP

Explanation:

As the high-energy electron from the reactive center of the photosystem conveyed from one protein to another in the protein transport chain of the chloroplast, the energy harnessed from the electron is used to pump H+ ions into the thylakoid lumen against concentration gradient.

The proton motive force created by having a high concentration of H+ ion in the thylakoid lumen than outside is to enable the creation of potential energy that is tapped by ATP synthase to create ATPs in a process called photophosphorylation. The ATPs made in this light stage is used in the anabolic process of the dark stage to make glucose through the reduction of CO2

Add 1-2 paragraphs in the recommendations section of the medical history resource sheet that describes next steps for melissa in

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Melissa should mind her peak flow rate! She should be gaging her reactions based on that information and referring to her Asthma Action Plan. In relation to changes to her lifestyle, she will have to establish a routine sleeping schedule, and perhaps abstain from certain strenuous activities, like ballet class. If she doesn't follow the plan, she will suffer from numerous severe asthma crises due to exposure to and causation of triggers. If Melissa does not adhere to her Asthma Action Plan, it could lead to fatal repercussions.
