Answer:
The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)
Explanation:
Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.
Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..
For this question, assume that you have 1 compound. This compound is divided in half once, so you are left with 0.5. That 0.5 that remains is divided in half again, this is the second half-life, and you are left with 0.25. The final half life involves dividing 0.25 in half, which means you are left with 0.125. For the answer to make sense, you need to know your conversions between decimals and fractions. To make it simple, if you have 0.125 and you times it by 8, you are left with your initial value of 1. Therefore, after three half-lives, you are left with 1/8th of the compound.
1. A filter was used to separate the sand from the salt water solution (The process of decanting was used if a filer was not available).
2. A Bunsen burner was used to boil away the water from the salt water solution leaving only salt.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
