Factors contributing to high fertility rate in Africa

Explanation:

Africa has the highest total fertility rate among world population at around 7.0. This rate is continuously on the high especially in Sub-Sahara regions like Sahel, Niger etc.

Some of the factors which led to this high fertility rates are lack of reproductive health awareness among African men and women, social and personal factors.

Social and personal factors play a major role in the high fertility rates in Africa.

Cultural and religious beliefs, personal desire to have large family or gender preferences, requirement for social security or dependency during old age.

Some consider child birth as a matter of prestige and social respect and honor and going against it will lead to societal disapproval.

These factors along with poor awareness on family planning measures led to high fertility rate in Africa.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

<u>a. the production of ATP</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is type of biosynthesis that produces glucose from the reactants sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. It happens in two phases of the chloroplast, the light-dependent and light-independent reactions. In a light reaction that stimulates photosystems, pigments such as chlorophyll absorb light energy at specific wavelengths.  Here,

  • Light energy stimulates photosystem complexes formed from chlorophyll. Photosystem II then absorbs and transfers light to a reaction core.
  • Water undergoes hydrolysis or splitting to yield an electron, a proton (H+) and oxygen.
  • energy is passed along the electron transport chain, where it forms builds up H+ and an electrochemical gradient in the thylakoid space
  • These protons pass through the ATPase enzyme embedded within the membrane, into the stroma, generating ATP from ADP.
  • NADPH is generated from NADP+
