Halobacterium has a photosynthetic membrane that appears purple. its photosynthetic action spectrum is the inverse of the action

spectrum for green plants. (that is, the halobacterium action spectrum has a peak where the green plant action spectrum has a trough.) what wavelengths of light do the halobacterium photosynthetic pigments absorb?

Yellow- Green Wavelength of light at peak absorption of 565nm.

Halobacterium is known to be a member of Archaea and they thrive in very salty environment such as Great Salt lake and Dead Sea. Halobacteria under the process of photosynthesis with chlorophyll and they make their ATP from the sunlight using bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin as photosynthetic pigments.

However, photosensory pigements found in Halabacterium were:

1. photosystem 565 which is used to respond to yellow –green light in other for cell to find optimum conditions for ATP synthesis and photophosphorylation and they have peak absorbtion at 565nm.

2. Photosystem 370 nm appears to be responsible for the protective avoidance of blue/UV light.

What is the purpose of the coronary artery and what results if there is blockage in this vessel ? cousrse hero?
tresset_1 [31]
Coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle, The left one, arises from the aorta and feeds blood to the left side of the heart and the right one supplies blood to the right ventricle, the right atrium, and the SA (sinoatrial) and AV (atrioventricular) nodes, which regulate the heart rhythm. Blockage in this vessel result in <span>reducing the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle and that can lead to a heart attack.

Glucose is broken down in the chemical processes of aerobic respiration.
Papessa [141]

\bold{\huge{\purple{\underline{ Answer }}}}

<u>Aerobic </u><u>respiration </u>:- Aerobic respiration is process of respiration in which complete oxidation of glucose takes place in the presence of oxygen

<u>That </u><u>is</u><u>, </u>

<u>Aerobic </u><u>respiration </u><u>is </u><u>takes </u><u>place </u><u>in </u><u>four </u><u>stages </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • <u>Glycolysis</u>
  • <u>The </u><u>link </u><u>reaction </u>
  • <u>The </u><u>Krebs </u><u>cycle </u>
  • <u>Oxidative </u><u>phosphorylation </u>

In aerobic respiration, Glucose with 6 carbon atoms broken into 2 pyruvic acid each with 3 carbon atom and produces water + CO2 + energy.

<h3><u>Whereas</u><u>, </u></h3>

<u>Anaerobic </u><u>respiration </u>:- is the process of respiration in which incomplete oxidation of glucose takes place in the absence of oxygen

The end products of glucose in anaerobic respiration is

  • <u>In </u><u>human </u><u>muscles</u><u>, </u><u> </u><u>Lactic </u><u>acid </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>Energy </u>
  • <u>In </u><u>yeast</u><u>, </u><u>Ethanol </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>CO2</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>Energy </u>

<u>Hence</u><u>, </u><u>Option </u><u>D </u><u>is </u><u>the </u><u>correct </u><u>answer</u><u>.</u>
