The right answer is NADP+.

Ferredoxin is an iron-sulfur protein that effects electron transfer in a large number of redox reactions in cell metabolism through Fe-S clusters whose iron cations oscillate between +2 (ferrous) oxidation states. and +3 (ferric). The first protein of this type was isolated in 1962 from the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium pasteurianum. A chloroplast-specific ferredoxin is involved in the cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation reactions of photosynthesis. In non-cyclic photophosphorylation, ferredoxin is the ultimate electron acceptor and reduces NADP + under the action of ferredoxin-NADP + reductase (EC 1.18.1.2) with FAD and a flavin group as cofactors:

2 ferredoxin- [Fe (2+) Fe (3+) S2 (-2)] + NADP (+) + H (+) ==> 2 ferredoxin- [Fe3 (+2) S2 (-2)] + NADPH .

Answer is hypertonic.

The ability of an extracellular solution to make water move into or out of a cell by osmosis is known as its tonicity. Tonicity is concern for all living things, especially in in organisms lacking cell wall, Paramecium is one such protozoan. It has specialized structures called contractile vacuoles. A contractile vacuole collects excess water from the cell and release it out, keeping the cell from lysing as it takes on water from extracellular environment which hypotonic (a lower osmolarity than the cell’s cytoplasm) as compared to hypertonic environment inside Paramecium.

Which of the following characteristics do bryophytes share with algae

xxMikexx [17]

The correct answer is letter C.
Bryophytes have biflagellate gametes and cuticle. The cuticle serves as the covering of the soft tissue of the plant which provides protection and prevents damages on the walls of the plants. The biflagellate gametes develop also as a form of protection as well. These plants have an aquatic ancestry because of their dependence on water for reproduction and survival.
