Answer: They tend to support large planktonic

communities because (of higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations).

Explanation:

Planktonic communities are made up of basic organisms that forms the oceanic food web. They are broadly divided into Phytoplankton (these are the producers), Zooplankton (these are the consumers) and Bacterioplankton (these are the recyclers).

High-latitude ocean water is mostly affected by the quantity of oxygen and nutrients it contains. Large planktonic communities thrives in these aquatic environment because is contains higher amount of dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations which forms part of their basic needs for survival. This is so because changes in ocean water can impact all levels of the food web. Increase or decrease in ocean temperature can modify the plankton diversity and distribution directly by altering it's metabolic rates and growth.

Therefore due to the geographic location of high latitude ocean, higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations favour the survival of a larger planktonic communities than other ocean parts.

The energy required to run the Calvin cycle reactions of photosynthesis comes from which two substances produced during the ligh
Lelu [443]

Answer:

a. ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

Light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and release of electrons. The electrons move from the reaction center of the PS-II via electron carriers to the PS-I. From the reaction center of PS-I, the electrons finally reach NADP reductase and reduce NADP into NADPH.

During this electron transfer via electron carriers, a proton concentration gradient is generated across the thylakoid membrane. The energy of this gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis are then used during the reactions of the Calvin cycle.

Imagine that a toxin is introduced to the body and inhibits the establishment of the proton gradient in the intermembrane space.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

ATP synthase would be unable to produce ATP

Explanation:

ATP synthase depends on the proton gradient in the intermembrane space to enable it to produce ATP. As a consequence of this, the toxin will make it inactive. Oxidative phosphorylation is now inhibited in this case, as opposed to substrate-level phosphorylation.

Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis, and it will not be affected by a toxin. NADH is very important in the establishing of a proton gradient, so it is expected that it would be unable to be oxidized due to the toxin. Protons produced in the conversion of NADH to NAD+ actually establish the proton gradient. If the gradient is absent, NADH is then not likely to be oxidized.
