Answer:

A) Both reactions rely on chemical energy.

Explanation:

The light-dependent phase of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts' tilacoid membrane, the capture of light energy and the transformation into chemical energy. In this process, the green pigment molecules go into an excited state, emitting part of the absorbed energy. These pigments are organized into two photosystems (I and II), which can be defined as light capture units present in thylacoids.

In this phase, light energy is absorbed by pigments in photosystem II and transferred to chlorophyll molecules in the reaction center. The energized electrons are transferred to an electron receiver. According to the transfer of these electrons, they are replaced by others from water photolysis. Here, too, oxygen is produced.

Some pairs of electrons pass to photosystem I stimulating ATP synthesis. The energy absorbed at that moment stimulates the chlorophyll molecules of the reaction center of this photosystem, and the energized electrons are accepted by a NADP + molecule. The electrons removed from chlorophyll are replaced by others from photosystem II.

The independent light phase occurs in the chloroplast stroma and also depends on the chemical energy. It starts with the process of fixing carbon in an organic compound. In this stage, the molecules of NADPH and ATP produced in the light phase are used for the production of sugars from the reduction of the fixed carbon. The reactions that occur here are called Calvin Cycle and, in the process, most of the fixed carbon is converted into sucrose or starch.

describe the regional source and characteristics of each of the 5 air masses that affect the united states
Inga [223]

5 air masses that affect the united states are continental polar(cP), continental arctic(cA), continental tropical(cT),maritime polar(mP) and maritime tropical(mT).

The source of origin of cP is the snowy regions of Canada and Alaska ,of cA is the Arctic basin, of cT is  Mexico and south west US, of mP is the Northern Pacific Ocean and mT is the Gulf of Mexico,the Carribean sea,western Atlantic and subtropical Pacific.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Air masses are volumes of air that has uniform characteristics. Air masses are  divided into two based on its moisture content. They are continental air mass and maritime air mass which are dry and moist respectively.

The first letter in the abbreviation of an air mass denoted whether the air mass is continental or maritime. The letter c represents continental air mass and letter m represents maritime air mass. The source of origin of the air mass is represented by the second letter in the abbreviation of the air mass.

Air mass with tropics as the source of origin is represented by the letter T, air mass with equator as the source is represented by letter E, air mass with pole as the source is represented by the letter P and air mass with the Arctic or Antarctic as the source is represented by the letter A.
