Chemical reaction equations, such as the one for photosynthesis, show the reactants and products of a reaction. How does this si

mplification misrepresent what takes place during the process of photosynthesis?
It does not show where in a cell photosynthesis occurs.
It does not show how long photosynthesis takes to happen.
It does not show that photosynthesis consists of many separate reactions.
It does not show the number of molecules required to produce glucose.

I would say the third option is the correct one. Although another simplification that the photosynthesis equation leaves out is the requirement of light energy needed to make glucose.

The right answer is It does not show that photosynthesis consists of many separate reactions.

It takes six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water to synthesize a molecule of glucose, releasing six molecules of oxygen, thanks to the light energy.

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light energy ==> C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2


<u>But this balance is in fact broken down into two successive stages:</u>

Light phase or photochemical phase:

12 H2O + light ==> 6 O2 + chemical energy (24 H).

The Calvin cycle (dark phase):

6 CO2 + chemical energy (24 H) ==> C6H12O6 + 6 H2O.

When you eat a meal, food is digested and monomers like glucose are transported throughout your body. food is transformed and us
Alchen [17]
<span>Food molecules like lipids, proteins and polysaccharides are broken down enzymatically via digestion process, which occurs in our intestine cells (digestive system). Those large polymeric molecules are broken down into their monomer subunits—proteins into amino acids, polysaccharides into sugars, and fats into fatty acids and glycerol. Formed small organic molecules are now ready for the oxidation (a process that produces ATP and consumes O2) which occurs partly in the cytosol and in the mitochondrion. Oxidation processes include glycolysis and citric acid cycle which are differently required in different tissues. Nervous system (nerve cells) rely almost entirely on a constant supply of <span>glucose<span> from the bloodstream. In contrast, liver cells supply glucose to actively contracting muscle system which needs a lot of ATP energy.</span></span></span>

Explain how independent assortment occurs in cells and explain its importance.
iren2701 [21]

Independent grouping of qualities happens amid meiosis in eukaryotes. Meiosis could be a sort of cell division that diminishes the number of chromosomes in a parent cell by half to deliver four regenerative cells called gametes. In people, diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes, with 23 chromosomes acquired from the mother and a moment comparative set of 23 chromosomes acquired from the father. Sets of comparable chromosomes are called homologous chromosomes. Amid meiosis, the sets of homologous chromosome are separated in half to make haploid cells, and this partition, or grouping, of homologous chromosomes is arbitrary. This implies that all of the maternal chromosomes will not be isolated into one cell, whereas the all fatherly chromosomes are isolated into another. Instep, after meiosis happens, each haploid cell contains a blend of qualities from the organism's mother and father.
