Answer:

D). A backup energy source is required to make up all short falls.

Explanation:

Wind is a renewable source of energy as wind can be replenished in nature. It is an alterntive source of energy which reduces some dependency over the use of conventional sources of energy like fossil fuels.

As the weather condition can influence the direction as well as speed of the wind currents . Therefore, it cannot be consider as a reliable source for availing the daily energy needs. Hence, a backup is required to meet the energy needs when no or very few amount of energy could be harnessed by wind power plant.

Proteins secreted by Gram-negative cells face multiple obstacles, including _____. Multiple choice question. moving across the p
Otrada [13]

Answer:

moving across both the plasma membrane and the outer membrane

Explanation:

Gram-negative bacteria are bacteria that have a plasma membrane, a thin peptidoglycan layer, and an outer membrane (the space between the plasma membrane and the outer membrane is known as periplasm). Moreover, Gram-positive bacteria exhibit neither outer membrane nor periplasmic space and are surrounded by thick layers of peptidoglycan. Gram-negative bacteria have developed different protein secretion systems (types I–VI and type VIII) in order to secrete proteins into the extracellular space. For such purpose, the XcpQ protein (which is an outer membrane protein from the secretin family) participates in different transport processes in Gram-negative bacteria.

The Calvin cycle is considered light-independent because it can occur in darkness. However, most often the Calvin cycle takes pl
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

C) The Calvin cycle requires ATP and NADPH, which require sunlight to be produced

Explanation:

The light-dependent phase of photosynthesis includes the photolysis of water molecules. The released electrons are passed to PSII to PSI via electron carriers and finally to NADP+ to reduce it into NADPH.

Transfer of electrons via electron carriers also generates the proton concentration gradient which in turn drives ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during light reactions are used in the Calvin cycle as an energy source and electron donor respectively.

Hence, to continue, the Calvin cycle requires the synthesis of ATP and NADPH in the presence of light.
