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.

What hormone released by the highlighted structures inhibits the secretion of FSH only?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Inhibin inhibits the secretion of FSH only.

<h3>What is the role of inhibin?</h3>
  • Inhibin is a protein mainly produced by the gonads.
  • In men it is produced by the Sertoli cells and it is produced by the granulose cells in women.
  • It negatively regulates the secretion of Follicle Stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland.
  • FSH itself induces the production of inhibin for negative feedback.
  • Pituitary is a pea shaped endocrine gland present at the base of the brain. It is the major endocrine gland and controls growth, development and functions of other endocrine glands.
  • Hormone activin has opposite effect to inhibin. It enhances FSH biosynthesis and secretion.
