Define photosynthesis and provide examples of photosynthetic organisms

Biology
1 answer:
Fiesta28 [93]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Photosynthesis is a process by which phototrophs convert light energy into chemical energy, which is later used to fuel cellular activities. The chemical energy is stored in the form of sugars, which are created from water and carbon dioxide.

Plants, algae, and a group of bacteria called cyanobacteria are the only organisms capable of performing photosynthesis

Determine whether each phrase describes a community, ecosystem, habitat, or population.
Yuri [45]

Answer:

A herd of bison - population

Frogs, insects, and birds living near a pond - community

The plants, animals, water, and soil of a forest - ecosystem

The kelp forest where sea otters live - habitat

All the hummingbirds that live in your state - population

Fish, eels, and lobsters living in a coral reef - community

A dying tree with holes that animals live in - habitat

Wetland plants, animals, and marshes - ecosystem

Explanation:

In ecology, the interaction of organisms are classified into categories including population, community, ecosystem etc.

A population in ecology consists of all the members of a particular species that inhabits a particular location. Based on the wide range of examples given in the question, a herd of bison and all the hummingbirds living in my state are examples of a population because they consists of organims of same species (bison and hummingbirds) living in a particular habitat.

A community, as opposed to population consists of organims of different species that share the same location as habitat. According to the question, Frogs, insects, and birds living near a pond and Fish, eels, and lobsters living in a coral reef are examples that represents a community because they contain organims of different species found living in a common habitat.

An ecosystem is the interaction between the biotic components (living) of a community with one another and also with the abiotic components (non-living). Based on the question, The plants, animals, water, and soil of a forest and Wetland plants, animals, and marshes represents an example of ecosystem because they contain living and non-living components interacting together. The living components in the first and second examples are plants, animals while abiotic components are water, soil and marsh.

Habitat refers to the physical location where the population or community of organisms lives. In this question, the kelp forest where sea otters live and a dying tree with holes that animals live in describes habitats of organisms.

In sickle-cell disease, as a result of a single amino acid change, the mutant hemoglobin tetramers associate with each other and
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct answer is - altered primary and quaternary structure; secondary and  tertiary structure may or may not be altered.

Explanation:

a) Primary structure: It is fundamentally the amino acid sequence or arrangments. Every protein has a remarkable amino acid sequence and little change in these sequence modifies the primary structure. On account of sickle cell, the amino corrosive has changed, and henceforth the essential structure of the protein molecule changes.  

b). secondary structure: It is the folding of the primary structure chain, which results from intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen holding of the amide group. Ex; Alpha helix and beta sheets. In the above case, this may or might not have changed as there is no conclusive method to know this.  

c) Tertiary structure: Most proteins' tertiary structures are mixes of a-helices, b sheets, and circles and turns. Every protein has interesting three-dimensional structure, folded in a particular way now and then known as a domain. For our situation, since it depends on the optional structure, it might have changed.

d) Quaternary structure: It is the relationship of numerous individual protein chains into a solitary protein with various subunits. The subunits arrangment offers to ascend to a steady structure. For our situation, a hemoglobin tetramers partner with one another and gather into large fibers. This has changed the first structure and accordingly we state the quaternary structure has changed.
