Vinil7 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The ATPs produced during Chemeiosmosis, in the chloroplast is needed during Calvin cycle to fix carbon for production of CHO, protein and fats  during conversion of 3C-glyceride phosphate(GP) to 2C- triose phosphate.(TP) .

The ATPs is needed for this reduction to take place in the presence of NADPH(which is oxdized to NADP).

Therefore, if the final electron acceptor is removed, there will be no electron transport chains which generated the PMF, for pumping H+ across into the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast, to generate the electrochemical gradients, needed for  the energy for ATPase synthase enzymes,to synthesize ATPs production.

Therefore, the removal of the electron acceptor (oxygen) leads to stoppage of electron transport chain, and hence loss of ATP s, and therefore, no Carbon fixation as CHO, or protein, or fats.

Modeling the Calvin Cycle Exploration
galina1969 [7]

Explanation:

The process of photosynthesis is energy-storing because the process converts light energy into chemical energy, which is stored in the bonds of glucose.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Further Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway, integral to plant and other primary producers producing energy. Energy is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide in the form of glucose molecules while the oxygen is emitted.

Photosynthesis, which occurs in several complex steps, is a rate-limited reaction, depends on several factors including concentration of carbon dioxide, ambient temperature, and light intensity; energy is recovered from photons, i.e. light particles, and water is used as a reducer. For those removed from photosystem II, water supplies the chlorophyll in plant cell with replacement electrons.

Therefore, water (H2O) split into H+ a by light during photolysis into H+ and OH-acts as a source of oxygen along with functioning as a reducing agent; it reduces the molecule NADP to NADPH by providing H+ ionsand produces molecules of the energy storage moleciule ATP through an electron transport chain. This occurs in the thykaloids, where pigment molecules like chlorophyll reside.

Later, in dark reactions, NADP and NADPH are used in the Calvin cycle where monosaccharides or sugars like glucose are produced after the modification of several molecules. These hold energy in their bonds, which can be released in respiration in the mitochondria.

Glucose production occurs after G3P production- a molecule of G3P, goes to the cytoplasm from the cycle, to form complex molecules and simple sugars like glucose.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

D) metaphase

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which the cell divides its replicated chromosome in equal amount in two daughter cells. Mitosis takes place in four phases: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase.

Metaphase is the stage of the cell division during which the chromosome is present in the highly condensed form present in the centre of the cell. The chromosomes are aligned at the equator of the cell.

Thus, metaphase is the correct answer.

Which two steps follow after Lysis in the experiment​
Advocard [28]

Explanation:

The cell must be lysed (broken open) to release the nucleus. the nucleus (if present) must also be open to release the DNA. at that point the DNA must be protected from enzymes that will degrade it, causing shearing. [[ once the DNA is released, it must then be precipitated in alcohol...]
