Answer:

400-450 nm
550-700 nm

Explanation:

Chlorophyll pigments (mainly chlorophyll a and b) absorb the red and blue spectrum of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum for photosynthesis. This is why leaves appear green (and occasionally orange) because this visible light portion is not absorbed. The blue light absorbed by leaves ranges between 400 – 450 nm while the red light ranges between 500 nm and 700 nm.

Katen [24]

Answer:

C) Eat locally-produced and organic food; cur meat and dairy consumption.

Explanation:

Eating organic food will be of no help because humans do not usually use forest trees as food resources. And hence, it will be of no help to stop the carbon dioxide emissions. Hence, option C will be of no help.

The consumption of green products will lead to lesser production of carbon dioxide and hence can be helpful. Using alternate energy sources which are not carbon based will also help to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide. If lands are restored then, these trees will not change over time. Hence, option A, B and D are helpful for no substantial change in the tree species over time.

N-linked glycans are attached to proteins through N-acetylglucosamine or N-acetyl galactosamine to the amide side chain of _____

taurus [48]

Answer:

Asparagine

Explanation:

Glycans are structures made up of chains of simple sugar molecules joined together by chemical bonds. N-linked glycosylation, is the attachment of an oligosaccharide, sometimes referred to as glycan, to the amide nitrogen the amino acid asparagine (Asn) residue of a protein, in a process called N-glycosylation. This linkage is most of the time important for the structure and function of the the protein they are linked to.
