Loss of Rb, an important part of the G1-S transition checkpoint, can result in uncontrolled cell cycle progression and cancer. All of the following would mimic loss of Rb except constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein. Correct answer: letter E.
Constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein would not mimic loss of Rb, because it would not directly result in uncontrolled cell cycle progression.
<h3>What is Retinoblastoma (RB)?</h3>
Rb is an important tumor suppressor protein that works to inhibit cell cycle progression by preventing the activation of E2F transcription factors. Constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein would not directly interfere with the Rb-E2F pathway, which is necessary for uncontrolled cell cycle progression and cancer.

Answer:In light-dependent reactions, the energy from sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy in the form of electron carrier molecules like ATP and NADPH. Light energy is harnessed in Photosystems I and II, both of which are present in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts
Explanation:
Explanation:
The new research carried out by NASA on mars suggets that many of the Mars' ancient channel have been carved by flowing water, were actually formed by melt water beneath glacial ice sheets. The rocks looked familiar to the rocks found on Earth in these water channels. Moreover, conglomerate rock was found near the base of the channel on Mars.
In the light dependent reactions light energy is absorbed by the photosytem II and an electron is released. This electron causes a process called photolysis to occur(H20-->2H++2e-+1/2O2). This is how O2 is released in the atmosphere. The electrons resulted from photolyisis enter the electron transport chain. In the electron transport chain using the energy in the elecrtons, hydrogen protons are pumped inside the thylakoid. Those protons accumulate to form an electrochemical gradient. That means the protons need to flow out, and they do through an enzyme called ATP-synthase which turns ADP and inorganic phosphate into ATP and water. In the electron transport chain, the electrons reach Photosystem I where NADP+ is reduced and becomes NADPH.
ATP and NADPH store the energy absorbed in the light dependent reactions. Those two molecules are needed when CO2 is fixated in Calvin's cycle to synthesize glucose.
