ALL BUT one product of the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis is utilized in the light independent reaction. That is
Lesechka [4]

Answer: Oxygen

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process by which plants use carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthetic reactions are divided into two phases: 1). light dependent reactions and 2). light independent reactions.

1) In light dependent reactions, chlorophyll and other light absorbing pigments absorb light energy and conserve it as ATP and NADPH with the simultaneous liberation of oxygen. This reaction occurs only when plants are illuminated. In light reactions, light energy is used to split water molecules into hydrogen ions and oxygen, the hydrogen ions produced are transferred to NADP+ to form NADPH, ATP is also produced in light dependent reactions.

2) In light independent reactions, ATP and NADPH produced in the light dependent reactions are used to drive the light independent reactions in which ATP and NADPH are used to reduce CO2 to form trioses, starch, sucrose and other products derived from them.

Which of the following correctly describes how nerve impulses move throughout the body?
ikadub [295]
The correct options are as follows:
1. ELECTRICAL TRANSMISSION THROUGH NEURONS AND CHEMICAL TRANSMISSION BETWEEN NEURONS [D].
Neurons, which are the nerve cells that carry nerve impulses are made up of cell body and dendrites. Electrical events propagate signals within a neuron and chemical processes transmit the signals from one neuron to the other.
2. SENSORY NEURON - BRAIN - SPINAL CORD - MOTOR NEURONS [B].
Waking up from sleep involves sensory neurons. Hearing of a strange sound is made possible by the activity of the brain. The man become alarm as a result of the message to the body from the brain via the spinal cord and running  involves motor neurons.
3. MOTOR NEURONS AND SENSORY NEURONS [A].
The peripheral nervous system is one of the two components of the nervous system and is made up of the nerves and the ganglia outside the brain and the spinal cord. The neurons of the peripheral nervous system is made up of sensory and motor neurons. The sensory neurons bring signals to the central nervous system while the motor neurons carry signals out of the central nervous system.

AUGUST 28, 2014 -- What does the Sahara Desert in Africa have to do with hurricanes in the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and Eastern Pacific Ocean? You might think this sounds a little crazy because hurricanes are very wet and deserts are very dry, but if it weren't for this huge, hot, dry region in North Africa, we would see far fewer hurricanes in the United States. The Sahara Desert is massive, covering 10 percent of the continent of Africa. It would be the largest desert on Earth, but based strictly on rainfall amounts, the continent of Antarctica qualifies as a desert and is even larger. Still, rainfall in the Sahara is very infrequent; some areas may not get rain for years and the average total rainfall is less than three inches per year. While not the largest or driest of the deserts, the Sahara has a major influence on weather across the Western Hemisphere.


How a Tropical Storm Starts A-Brewin'


The role the Sahara Desert plays in hurricane development is related to the easterly winds (coming from the east) generated from the differences between the hot, dry desert in north Africa and the cooler, wetter, and forested coastal environment directly south and surrounding the Gulf of Guinea in west Africa. The result is a strong area of high altitude winds commonly called the African Easterly Jet. If these winds were constant, we would also experience fewer hurricanes. However, the African Easterly Jet is unstable, resulting in undulations in a north-south direction, often forming a corresponding north to south trough, or wave, that moves westward off the West African Coast. When these waves of air have enough moisture, lift, and instability, they readily form clusters of thunderstorms, sometimes becoming correlated with a center of air circulation. When this happens, a tropical cyclone may form as the areas of disturbed weather move westward across the Atlantic. Throughout most of the year, these waves typically form every two to three days in a region near Cape Verde (due west of Africa), but it is the summer to early fall when conditions can become favorable for tropical cyclone development. Not all hurricanes that form in the Atlantic originate near Cape Verde, but this has been the case for most of the major hurricanes that have impacted the continental United States.
