Why does darkness affect the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis?

Biology

Anna35 [415]3 years ago

The right answer is Light independent reactions require the energy gathered in the thylakoids.

* The dark phase corresponds to the phase of assimilation of CO2 which uses the energy molecules produced during the clear phase and which is carried out cyclically. This cycle is called the Calvin cycle and it takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.

The assimilation of CO2 is done in four main stages, the first three of which take place within the Calvin cycle:

-CO2 fixation (carboxylation).

-Carbon reduction fixed.

-Regeneration of the CO2 acceptor.

-Synthesis of sugars.

* A thylakoid, or thylakoid membrane, in a chloroplast, is a flat membranous sac containing chlorophyll, or in other words, it is a cell membrane within the plant chloroplast that photosynthesizes. The thylakoid of a bacterium is also called the chromatophore.

A thylakoid is a membrane compartment within chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. They are the place of light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. The thylakoids consist of a thylakoid membrane surrounding a thylakoid lumen (in the biological sense).

More than 99 percent of all species, amounting to over five billion species, that ever lived on Earth are estimated to be extinct. Estimates on the number of Earth's current species range from 10 million to 14 million, of which about 1.2 million have been documented and over 86 percent have not yet been described.

The words for the descriptions are food chain, trophic level, energy pyramid, high diversity, low diversity, etc. respectively.

<h3>Ecology</h3>
  • The feeding relationship that exists among organisms is termed the food chain.

  • Each step in the transfer of energy and matter in a community is termed the trophic level.

  • A community or group of living organisms that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment is termed an ecosystem.

  • A diagram that compares the energy used by producers, primary consumers, and other trophic levels is known as the energy pyramid.

  • An ecosystem with a high number of species is said to be of high diversity.

  • An ecosystem with a few prominent species and a low number of other species is said to be of low diversity.

  • Organisms that feed on and break down organic matter are said to be decomposers.

  • Organisms that can make their own food in the ecosystem are termed, producers.

  • Animals that feed on flesh are called carnivores.

  • A system of interlocking and interdependent food chains is called a food web.

How does the digestive work
mamaluj [8]
Digestion begins in the mouth with chewing and ends in the small intestine. As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. ...Digestive juices contain enzymes that break food down into different nutrients.
