Answer:
The high transmittance (low absorption) reading indicates that chlorophyll absorbs very little green light.
The low transmittance (high absorption) reading indicates that chlorophyll absorbs most blue light
Explanation:
- The galvanometer is a device which is used for measuring the electric current.
- In a spectrophotometer the galvanometer is attached to indicated the amount of light that is getting transmitted through a sample.
- If the amount of light that is getting transmitted from the sample is more, the reading of the galvanometer would be higher and if less light is transmitted the reading of the galvanometer would be less.
- Further, the transmittance of a light is inversely proportional to the absorption, that is if the absorption would be low transmittance would be high and vice versa.
- Therefore, when the chlorophyll is exposed to green light, the transmittance is high and this implies that the absorption of green light would be less.
- Similarly, when the chlorophyll is exposed to blue light, a low transmittance indicates a higher absorption of blue light by chlorophyll.
Answer:
i think that the higher the body temperature the higher the cellular respiration
Explanation:
Answer:
The cells in a population die at a constant rate
Explanation:
Microbial death is the loss of the ability of microbes to reproduce and survive in an environment. When a given microbial population is given a treatment, the microbial cells die at a constant rate. Microbial death rate is not dependent on the specie and nor on the antimicrobial agent.
Therefore, the microbial cells in a population does not die at once but die at a constant logarithmic rate; the cells decreases exponentially as nutrients decreases and waste product increases.
For example, if 500,000 microbes are treated or in a nutrient depleted environment and 50,000 microbes is left after 1 minute, by the next minute under the same condition 5,000 microbial cells will be left and this pattern will continue, this explains exponential decrease
The first one is the 3rd option and the 2nd one is also the 3rd option
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a process taking place in the green plants which are involved in the formation of the glucose molecule using Carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight.
The process of photosynthesis takes place in two phases:
1. Light-dependent phase
2. Light independent phase
<u>Light-dependent phase
</u>
Light-dependent phase takes place in the thylakoid membrane where the Photosystem I and II are present.
The photosystem II absorbs the sunlight of 680 nm wavelength which excites the electron of the chlorophyll. The electron moves in the photosystem and through the reaction center-exit the photosystem and enters the electron transport chain.
The electron is then transferred via the electron carriers like plastoquinone, cytochrome, and plastocyanin and is transferred to photosystem I which absorbs the light at 700 nm. From here the electron is taken by ferrodoxin and form NADH.
The electron then reaches the ATP synthase and forms the ATP molecules thus ATP and NADPH are formed in the reaction but the loss of electron in chlorophyll is fulfilled by the water molecule which on hydrolysis provides the electrons and stabilize the structure.
<u> Light independent phase
</u>
The phase during which the Rubisco enzyme binds with the carbon dioxide and forms 3-PGA. This 3 PGA is then reduced to G3P which requires the 6 ATP molecules. The G3P molecule then forms 1 molecule of glucose and the Rubp is again regenerated.
