Answer:

Explanation:

Energy in _SUNLIGHT__ is absorbed by an electron in a photocenter. This energy is converted from light energy into chemical energy into kinetic energy as the energized electron is used in back to back REDOX reaction in the electron transport chain, ETC. The ETC creates _AN ENERGY GRADIENT__ which is used by the cell to power the formation of ATP. In _CYCLIC PHOSPHORYLATION__ (cyclic or noncylcic) the electron returns to the photocenter. In _NON-CYCLIC PHOSPHORYLATION__ (cyclic or non-cyclic), the electron reduces NADP+ to form _NADPH__.

Photophosporylation is the process of using light (photo) to produce ATP from ADP (phosphorylation i.e. addition of phosphorous). There are two types: cyclic and non-cyclic phosphorylation.

In non-cyclic phosphorylation, there are two photosystems (photocenter) involved, and electron is passed to NADP+.

In cyclic phosphorylation,  one photosystem is involved and the electron is not transferred to NADP+, it is circled back to the photosytem.

The reduced form of NADP+ is NADPH. (Remember that: reduction is defined as the addition of hydrogen)

How many nucleotides are needed to code for two amino acids?
den301095 [7]
3 nucleotides code for a single amino acid. This group of 3 is known as a codon. If you are coding for two amino acids, you would need two codons, 3 nucleotides each, for a total of 6 nucleotides.

Would a 9-N force applied 2 m from the fulcrum lift the weight explain
Bas_tet [7]
the answer is no. You need the two torques to equal in order to lift something. That is 9 X 2 = lifting torque and 9 X 3 = lifted torque. 

As you can plainly see 18 < 27; so you cannot lift that 9 N weight located 3 meters from the fulcrum.

Vsevolod [243]

Explanation:

Γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid that is widely present in microorganisms, plants and animals. It is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS) of mammals.

It plays the leading role in reducing neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. In humans, GABA is directly responsible for the regulation of muscle tone.

Although, in chemical terms, it is an amino acid, in the scientific and medical communities they rarely refer to GABA as such because the term "amino acid" by convention refers to the α amino acids and GABA is not. It is also not considered as part of any protein.

In spastic diplegia in humans from an early age, GABA absorption is negatively affected by the nerves damaged by the lesion in the upper motor neurons characteristic of the condition which leads to the development of muscular hypertonia signaled by those nerves that are incapable of absorbing GABA.
