<u><em>Growing plants in space is tough -- low gravity means water distribution is difficult to manage, the roots are often starved of oxygen, and stagnant air reduces evaporation and increases the leaf temperature</em></u>
Answer:
The False statement is
Exchange gases with blood
Explanation:
Gas exchange occurs at the alveolar level which is part of the lower respiratory track
Answer:
D) In case 1, both PS I and PS II completely lose function; in case 2, a proton gradient is still produced.
Explanation:
The light dependent reaction of photosynthesis, which produces the ATP and NADPH needed in the light independent stage of the process, includes complexes of proteins and pigments called PHOTOSYSTEMS. These photosystems (I and II) are key to the functionality of the light dependent reactions in the thylakoid.
The major pigment present in both photosystems is CHLOROPHYLL A, which absorbs light energy and transfers electrons to the reaction center. Chlorophyll B is only an accessory pigment meaning it can be done without. Hence, if all of the chlorophyll A is inactivated in the algae but leaves chlorophyll B intact as in case 1, both PS I and PS II will lose their function because Chlorophyll A is the major pigment that absorbs light energy in both photosystems.
In case 2, if PS I is inhibited and PS II is unaffected, a PROTON GRADIENT WILL STILL BE PRODUCED because the splitting of water into protons (H+) and electrons (e-) occurs in PSII. Hence, H+ ions can still be pumped into the inner membrane of the thylakoid in order to build a proton gradient even without the occurrence of PS I.
Answer:
Evolution
Explanation:
Evolution is the change in habits, hereditary and physical characteristics of a species over various generations in response to environmental conditions. Evolution lead to adaptation, the nature selection of the fittest and elimination of remaining.
Evolution may produce variety and diversity in response to mutation, genetic drift and other genetic variation. These changes may pass to offspring and may express them more in one group of population.
Evolution also explain the unity among organisms by explaining their shared characteristics. This refers to their common ancestors.
