Answer:

The plants make food by the help of the process known as photosynthesis. This process can be defined as the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy by the help of carbon dioxide and water molecules in the leaves of the plant.

Leaves and stem of the plant have a green pigment called chlorophyll which is responsible for trapping sunlight and initiating the process of photosynthesis. Glucose is formed as a product of this reaction.

This glucose is then transported from the leaves to various parts of the plant body by phloem tissue. Every cell of the plant utilizes these glucose molecules for cellular respiration in the pressence of oxygen.

So, loss of chlorophyll in leaves will hinder the production of glucose and hence, cellular respiration will decrease in the plant cells.

vodka [1.7K]
There can but it will not last long. There are probably more carnivores because they were taking advantage of the supply of herbivores and now they will start to die off. So I guess my answer is no, not normally and not for a long time.

Gorter and grendel extracted lipids from human red blood cells. they calculated the total surface area for these red blood cells
Anastaziya [24]
<span>The calculated to surface area for red blood cells by Gorter and Grendel found to be 36u2.

 The surface area that would be covered once they spread across the surface of the water is 72u2.

If they spread across the surface area will double. This is because the lipid bilayer with phospholipid the head faces the water on each surface of the membrane.
 It clearly shows that there must be more to membranes than lipid bilayer because membranes grew and the surface tension of membranes is much lower than those of pure lipid structures.</span>
