Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, in small structures called chloroplasts. The glucose made in photosynthesis is then used during cellular respiration.

Why is cellular respiration important? Multiple Choice It produces oxygen gas, which is essential to cell functions. It breaks d

trapecia [35]

Answer: (c) It generates ATP, which cells can use to do work.

(d) It generates chemical gradients, which have potential energy.

Explanation:

The overall process of Cellular respiration is the aerobic break down of organic compounds (food) with the release of CO2, water and energy in form of ATP which drives most cellular work.

Organic compound + oxygen --------> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP + heat)

In cellular respiration during the break down of food in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, chemical energy (NADH and FADH) are extracted from each cellular process and transported to the electron transport chain built in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The chemical energy harvested from food is transformed into a proton-motive force, a gradient of H+ across the membrane. When this H+ election fall from their gradient via ATP synthase, Chemiosmosis couples this proton motive force to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP.

7. Phytochrome prevents seeds of some plants from germinating when they are in deep shade by the: absorption of far-red waveleng

SIZIF [17.4K]

<h2>Function of Phytochrome </h2>

Explanation:

The color of light that they absorb maximally by the two types such as Pfr is a blue-green structure that ingests far-red light (730 nm) and Pr is a blue structure that retains red light (660 nm)
Pfr assimilates far-red light, it is changed over to the Pr structure
Pfr can spontaneously revert to the Pr form structure in obscurity dark over time = dark reversion Pfr is additionally helpless to proteinases
Pfr contains some red light, so in red light 15% Pr and there is a parity of 85% Pfr.
The phytochrome (Pr) is changed over to the organically dynamic structure red light with the Pfr under illumination
Darkness and Far -red light convert the particle back to the inactive form.

Describe how the students would use the apparatus to show that there were microorganisms present in the air in the laboratory. R

NeX [460]

Answer:

Describe how the students would use the apparatus to show that there were microorganisms present in the air in the laboratory. Remember to think carefully about experimental design and how to make the results reliable.

Title: using apparatus to know the presence of microorganisms

aims and objectives: description of presence of microorganisms in the air

materials and method: petri dish, agar, distilled water, hand gloves, nose mask, pipette e.t.c

methodology: pipette is used to measure the amount of water in a petri dish and placed outside where hands can not be touched for 24 hours, after then the water is taken to the lab and agar is added for bacteria growth, after 24 hours, if the microbial growth is seen on the cultured plate, then it shows that the air is contaminated with microorganism which mixes with water when exposed to air

precaution: i ensured personal protective equipment are worn throughout the experiment.

conclusion: it is ascertained that air is contaminated with microorganism as a result of the above performed experiment
