Answer:

In the leaf, excess glucose is rapidly converted to starch, so we test leaves for starch to show that photosynthesis has happened, rather than testing for glucose. We often indicate that light and chlorophyll are required for the process by adding them to the equation near the arrow.

Place the following in the correct order as they occur in CELL RESPIRATION.

Goryan [66]

Electrons and h+ ions pop off and are picked up by NADH.
1 C is stripped from 3-C PGA and makes Co2.
Coenzyme A attaches to 2-C molecule making Acetyl Co-A.
Resulting 3 C molecule is stabilized BEFORE entering the mitochondria.
Acetyl Co-A enters mitochondria and drops off 2-C molecules.
In cytosol, 6-C glucose and 2 ATP split into two 3-C molecules (glycolysis).
2-C molecule combines with 4-C molecule and breaks into two 3-C molecules
Krebs cycle spins twice; each time stripping 1 carbon to make Co2 as a by-product.
With each cycle of Krebs, electrons and H+ ions pop off, are picked up by NADH and FADH2 and taken to ETC
4 molecules of ATP are generated.

What causes an H2O molecule to stick to another H2O molecule?

irina [24]

Answer:

In the case of water, hydrogen bonds form between neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules. The attraction between individual water molecules creates a bond known as a hydrogen bond. ... Both of these atoms can form a hydrogen bond with oxygen atoms of different water molecules.

which of the following would be least likely to happen as a result of a mutation in a person's skin cells?

Dmitriy789 [7]

Its the person's offspring have mutated skin.
because for a mutation to be passed down to an offspring mutation has to happen in the sex cells. so that is the least likely to happen.
since the other may happen for example.
skin cancer: i am not sure how but definitely sure that it is the second least that is gonna happen. (trust me)
reduced functioning of skin cell yes.: if there are changes in the nucleotides which can give a diff amino acid.
and no change. cuz if the mutation occurs but the nucleotides still codes for the same amino acid then there is no problem!!
