What is the main purpose of light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

Biology

liq [111]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The main purpose of light  dependent reactions of photosynthesis is to generate ATP and NADPH.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis consist of two reactions 1 light reaction 2 dark reaction .The light reaction occur in the thylaKoid of Grana to produce Adenosine tri phosphate (ATP) and NADPH

Role of ATP

ATP is an energy rich molecule which undergo hydrolysis to provide energy for Carbon di oxide fixation during dark reaction. The carbon di oxide fixation is very much important to produce glucose.

Role of NADPH

NADPH act as reducing equivalent that carry out the reduction of phosphoglyceric acid formed in the first step of light independent reaction to generate phosphoglyceraldehyde(PGALD). Some PGALD then undergo various enzymatic reaction to form glucose and rest are utilized to regenerate ribulose bis phosphate(RUBP).

What is transcription and why is it important in making proteins
Nostrana [21]

Answer:The goal of transcription is to make a RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence. For a protein-coding gene, the RNA copy, or transcript, carries the information needed to build a polypeptide (protein or protein subunit). Eukaryotic transcripts need to go through some processing steps before translation into proteins.

Write an essay describing the 3 main steps of DNA replication in the correct order. Be sure to include the key structures involv
fiasKO [112]
When a cell divides, each daughter cell must receive its full complement of genetic material in the form of chromosomes containing DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid. A chromosome is made up of two long strands of DNA and several types of proteins . A DNA strand is composed of a long backbone of sugar and phosphate units . One of our different nucleotide bases -- A, T, C or G -- hang off each sugar unit. The sequence of the bases encodes genetic information. The three steps in the process of DNA replication are initiation, elongation and termination

Explain the two different patterns of circulation found in vertebrates.
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Single loop

Double loop

Explanation:

Circulatory system in the body helps in the transport of oxygen, nutrients and other important substances in the body.

Single loop circulatory systems involves blood passing through the heart only once on each circuit around the whole of the blood circulation system of the animal.

Double loop means there are two loops in our body in which blood circulates. One is oxygenated which means oxygen rich and the other is deoxygenated, which means it has little to no oxygen, but a lot of carbon dioxide.

The physical barrier of the skin and the mucus produced by the epithelial cells lining body cavities ____.​ release histamines​
zepelin [54]

The answer is protect the body from infection by pathogens

The physical barrier is made of epithelial cells, mostly will be keratinized to increase their sturdiness further. They will impede the pathogen physically by barricading the cells, makes the pathogen could not invade deeper part of the body. Histamine and antibodies should be the role of immune cells, not epithelial.
