Significance of active transport in food processing ​

Biology
1 answer:
OleMash [197]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Why do we need active transport?

Moving Against a Gradient

Small substances constantly pass through plasma membranes. Active transport maintains concentrations of ions and other substances that living cells require in the face of these passive movements. A cell may spend much of its metabolic energy supply maintaining these processes.

Force in the liquid are the forces of attraction between the molecules within the liquid.
ziro4ka [17]
The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules: A molecule in the bulk liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions. A molecule at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.

Plant cells have mitochondria, which use glucose to produce ATP. Where does the glucose originate?
Romashka [77]

Plant produces glucose in the chloroplast through the process of photosynthesis. Calvin cycle is basically the biological process through which glucose is produced. The steps involved are as follows:

1. Absorbed CO2 is added to RuBP and 6C sugar is formed.

2. Breaking of 6C sugar into two  3-phosphoglycerate molecules

3. ATP gives phosphate group  to form 3-phosphoglycerate which is later on converted into 1,3-biphosphoglycerate.

4. Electons are required by 1,3-biphosphoglycerate to an aldehyde called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate or G3P and these electrons are donated by NADPH

5. Enzyme aldolase uses two molecules of G3P to produce 6 C sugar called  fructose-1,6-biphosphate which is further converted to fructose-6-phosphate

6. Enzyme  isomerase converts fructose-6-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate
