Answer:

<u>The process of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast</u>. Photosynthesis can be described as a process in which plants convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is the by-product of the reaction. The energy for this reaction is taken by the chloroplast by trapping light energy of the Sun.

The reaction for photosynthesis can be written as:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

<u>The process of cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria.</u> Respiration can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen get converted into carbon dioxide and water. Energy is released by this process which is used for many cellular activities. Hence, mitochondria is known as the powerhouse of a cell.

The reaction of cellular respiration can be summed up as:

C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 --> 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP

Both, these processes provide energy for the working of cells.

shusha [124]

Answer:

a) allosteric site

Explanation:

An allosteric site is a site on an enzyme other than the active site where a molecule that is not a substrate binds. This changes the shape of the enzyme, making it harder for the substrate to bind and inhibits enzyme activity.

Hope that helps.

suppose a cell wishes to make a protein that has 100 amino acid. How many water molecules will be created in the making of this
slega [8]
The answer is 99.

Amino acids <span>contain a carboxyl group (carbon-containing) and an amino group (nitrogen containing). Proteins are made by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino group of amino acids.
</span>If a protein is made of 100 amino acids, that means there are 99 peptide bonds (because the last, 100th amino acid will not bind the next (101st) amino acid). For each peptide bond that is created, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms are taken. Therefore, one water molecule is created for each peptide bond. If there are 99 peptide bonds, 99 water molecules are created.
