Explain the results of light dependent and light independent reactions

Biology

frozen [14]3 years ago

After the energy from the sun is converted and packaged into ATP and NADPH, the cell has the fuel needed to build carbohydrate molecules. The carbohydrate molecules made will have a backbone of carbon atoms. In the light-dependent reactions, energy from sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and that energy is converted into stored chemical energy. In the light-independent reactions, the chemical energy harvested during the light-dependent reactions drives the assembly of sugar molecules from carbon dioxide. The light-dependent reac-tions require light and water, occur in the thylakoids, and produce ATP and NADPH. The light-independent reactions require carbon dioxide, occur in the stroma, and produce high-energy sugars. The light-dependent reactions produce ATP and NADPH; the light-independent reactions use energy stored in ATP and NADPH. Light dependent reactions occur in Grana of Chloroplasts, Light Independent reactions occur in Stroma of Chloroplasts. Hence Chloroplasts are required for both the light-dependent and light-independent reactions to proceed.

How can invasive species alter an ecosystems food web?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Invasive species can either replace an organism from the ecosystem food web or replace it.  

Explanation:

  • Invasive species are non-native species which can be animals, plants, micro-organisms, fish, etc. they are very much threatening to the native species and ecosystem food web.
  • Invasive species are spread by humans mostly, it happens unintentionally when people travel and all. Even climate change could be a reason for its spread.
  • So, it becomes threatening to native species because when you introduce it into a new ecosystem, it does not have a predator or control. It grows aggressively and takes over the resources for the native species.

Eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells in that eukaryotic cells​
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within a nuclear envelope. Eukaryotes belong to the domain Eukaryota or Eukarya; their name comes from the Greek εὖ and κάρυον. The domain Eukaryota makes up one of the domains of life in the three-domain system; the two other domains are Bacteria and Archaea. Eukaryotes represent a tiny minority of the number of living organisms; however, due to their generally much larger size, their collective worldwide biomass is estimated to be about equal to that of prokaryotes. Eukaryotes evolved approximately 1.6–2.1 billion years ago, during the Proterozoic eon.
