How does the photosynthetic reaction center differ from the chorophyll molecules in the antenna complex?

Biology

o-na [289]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Photosynthetic reaction center differ from the chlorophyll molecules in the antenna complex by the presence  and absence of core pigment and accessory pigment.

Explanation:

Photosynthetic reaction center contain core pigment known as chlorophyll  A which can aborb wavelength of sunlight not more than 700 nm in case of Photosystem 1 and the core chlorophyll pigment of Photosystem 2 absorb light having wavelength of 680nm or less than that.

                           Antenna complex or light harvesting complex  such as chlorophyll b ,Carotenoid,Xanthophyll absorb light energy from sunlight and transfer that light energy to photosynthetic reaction center by resonance energy transfer so that the photosynthetic reaction center uses the same(light energy) in form of chemical energy to out the further reactions of photosynthesis.

Which describes how proteins are used in mating by Japanese beetles? A.Male and female beetles combine proteins to form offsprin
Mice21 [21]

The answer is C. Pheromones are hormones (which are proteinous) produces by individuals of the same species and are a means to send communication signals for social interactions. They signal alarm, food and even sex. Sex pheromones are  released by females beetles into the environment to signal their availability for mating. The pheromones are picked up by receptors on the male beetles and this is how they find the females.

"ricin inhibits the functioning of ribosomes. What part of protein synthesis would be affected by ricin? What effect would this
kondor19780726 [428]

Ricin comes under the category of functionally related toxins, in a combination known as RIPs (ribosome inactivating proteins). This disables ribosomes and stops the process of protein synthesis.  

They directly associate with and inactivate the ribosomes or modify the factors taking part in the process of translation, generally the elongation step. These proteins bring about depurination of adenine at position 4324 in the 28 S rRNA.  

This further inhibits the generation of a critical-stem-loop configuration to which the elongation factor is considered to combine at the time of the translocation step of translation. The ultimate outcome of this activity is the complete inhibition of cellular translation.

WHERE DID MOST OF THE EARTHS ATOMS COME FROM
BlackZzzverrR [31]
These hydrogen atoms can come together in nuclear processes called fusion, which is the process that powers the sun, and through fusion, heavier atoms such as carbon and nitrogen are produced. These in turn undergo fusion to make even heavier atoms, and it is such processes that created all the atoms in the earth.
