There is NOT a difference in speed between a car going forwards at 5 m/s and a car moving backwards at 5 m/s.
Speed is just the rate of change of the position of an object. It is calculated by dividing the change in position (distance traveled) by the time it takes to move said distance.
The distance between the two points is always positive because the direction does not matter.
However, if we are looking for the velocity, the direction DOES matter. In this example, the velocity moving forwards is 5 m/s while the velocity moving backwards is -5 m/s.
In other words:
<em>Speed </em>is looking at the <em>magnitude</em>
<em>Velocity </em>is looking at the <em>magnitude </em><em>and </em><em>direction.</em>
Answer:
C) The Calvin cycle requires ATP and NADPH, which require sunlight to be produced
Explanation:
The light-dependent phase of photosynthesis includes the photolysis of water molecules. The released electrons are passed to PSII to PSI via electron carriers and finally to NADP+ to reduce it into NADPH.
Transfer of electrons via electron carriers also generates the proton concentration gradient which in turn drives ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during light reactions are used in the Calvin cycle as an energy source and electron donor respectively.
Hence, to continue, the Calvin cycle requires the synthesis of ATP and NADPH in the presence of light.
Answer:
The correct option is E) Contraction still occurs because Ca2+ can enter the cell directly through Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane and bind to calmodulin.
Usually, the calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of a cell during a muscle contraction, but if those are blocked, the contractions is an cell can still arise through the calcium ions which are present in the cell membrane of a cell.
