The correct answer is one of its two alleles.
Its the Eccentricity of the earth. (shape of Earth's Orbit around the sun, whether it is more circular or ovular.)
In plants, photosynthesis, occurring in chloroplasts, is an anabolic (bond-building) process whereby CO2 and H2O combine with the use of light (photon) energy. This yields O2 and sugar (i.e. glucose). This occurs in 2 phases: light-dependent and dark (Calvin cycle) reactions, which both continually recycle ADP/ATP and NADP/NADPH.
The catabolic (bond-breaking) process in plants is cellular respiration, in which glucose is broken down with O2 by glycolysis (cytoplasm only) and mitochondrial reactions (Krebs cycle and E.T.C.) to yield CO2 and H2O. These reactions recycle ADP/ATP and NAD/NADH. The CO2 and water produced by cellular respiration feed into the photosynthetic processes, and in turn, the O2 and glucose resulting from photosynthesis supply the respiratory reactions.
Answer:
DNA replication is important because without it, cell division could not occur. With DNA replication, the set of DNA of a cell can be duplicated and then each cell that results from division can have its own entire set of DNA, and cell division can theoretically continue indefinitely.
