What process do plants use to incorporate the sun's energy into an organic molecule?

Answer: c) photosynthesis

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, plants absorb light by using a pigment called chlorophyll. This pigment absorbs light in the mainly in the wavelengths of light red and blue, and it reflects the green light, so as results plants are seeing in green colors. There are other pigments that absorb different wavelengths, but chlorophyll is the main pigment that is involved in the photosynthesis process. Plants use this energy to convert the CO2 into organic molecules, that the plant can be used as a source of energy to grow and reproduce.

The other options are processes that also are happening in a plant, but aren’ t the correct answer. Transduction in plants is a process where plants receive signals from the environment and response to them. During transpiration or  phototranspiration, plants carry the water from the roots to the leaves and release the water to their environment. This is an important process in plants because using this water movement they can translocate elements.

Explain the chemical process of transforming energy from glucose to atp through the process of cellular respiration
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

During respiration, the breakdown of glucose undergoes several steps in order to produce ATP, namely in glycolysis, the Kreb's cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.

overall: C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

Further Explanation:

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP which is produced. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. Electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria.

This forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons flow or re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the electron transport, three molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water...

  • Glycolysis: occurs in the cytoplasm 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules. (2 ATP are utilized for a net ATP of 2)
  • The Citric acid or Kreb's cycle: in the mitochondrial matrix- 6 molecules of CO2 are produced by combining oxygen and the carbon within pyruvate, 2 ATP oxygen molecules, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2.
  • The electron transport chain, ETC: in the inner mitochondrial membrane, 34 ATP, electrons combine with H+ split from 10 NADH, 4 FADH2, renewing the number of electron acceptors and 3 oxygen; this forms 6 H2O, 10 NAD+, 4 FAD.

Explain how the first three steps of scientific inquiry are related..
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
<span>The first three scientific inquiry is being related because
 they are all equivalent to the facts of finding emission.

They develop a question that must be answered.
1. The first scientific inquiry is to pose a question or else a problem is being investigated.
2. The next step is the observation, and it helps to form a hypothesis which explains the phenomenon or effect of what is observed.

Scientific inquiry is the diverse ways in which scientist study the natural world and then propose the explanations which are based on evidence which is derived from their work. Also, students develop science ideas of knowledge and understanding how scientist they do study the natural world.</span>
