Two selectively permeable sacs A and B were submerged in a 45% glucose solution that was contained in a beaker. Sac A contained
a 15% glucose solution and Sac contained a 15% sucrose solution. In which direction did net movement of water molecules occur? a. Only from Sac A to the beaker b. Only from Sac B to the beaker c. From the beaker to both sacs d. From both sacs to the beaker
1 answer:
Answer:
Option a. Only from Sac A to the beaker is correct.
Explanation:
As beaker contains glucose which is a monosaccharide and Sac A also have glucose in it, So, therefore glucose from sac A will move into beaker through the process of OSMOSIS.
Sac A (15% glucose) is less concentrated as compared to beaker (45% glucose) therefore this phenomenon will occur. (See attached image for more detailed and graphical explanation)

When electrons do not return to the photosystems, it is because of a process known as oxygenic photophosphorylation, a process that is key to photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants get their energy. This process involves many steps taken in order to turn energy from light, into sugar and molecular energy known as ATP, needed for plants to survive. This process uses a variety of important and complex steps, among which is included oxygenic photophosphorylation.
Oxygenic photophosphorylation is one of the key processes to photosynthesis. It involves the use of photosystems <u>one </u>and <u>three</u>, located in the thylakoid membrane of plant cells, in order to produce NADPH and ATP. These systems enter a state of photoactivation, releasing an electron to be carried by the NADPH molecule towards the Calvin cycle where the electron can be placed onto a carbon atom, for long-term storage, often as a carbohydrate.
