What is the main function of the part labeled Yin the model?

Chemistry

NARA [144]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The part labelled Y is the chloroplast and its main function is to produce food for the plant in the reactions of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Plants are autotrophic organisms in that they are able to manufacture their own food. Plants are able to manufacture their own food due to the presence of the cell organelle known as the chloroplast.  The plant chloroplast has its own DNA and can reproduce independently, from the rest of the cell. They can as well produce amino acids and lipids required for the chloroplast membrane.

Chloroplasts are green-colored membrane-bound organelles found within the plant cell. Their green color is due to the presence of the pigment, chlorophyll. Chlorophyll in the chloroplasts are responsible for absorbing light energy from sunlight and using this absorbed energy to make simple sugars (carbohydrates) from carbon (iv) oxide and water. This is the main function of the chloroplasts in plant cells.

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts in two reaction steps:

1. The light reaction - involves the splitting of e=water molecules using the energy of sunlight

2. The dark reactions - carbon (iv) oxide from the air is used to produce sugars.

Rank the ions in order of increasing basicity: CH3NH-, CH3CH2-, CH30-
Alexxx [7]

In order to find out the ranking of ions basicity, check the pKa values of each ions. The principle that you need to remember is that the stronger the acid the weaker the corresponding conjugate base. The pKa dictates acid value of the compound. The answer would be CH3NH, CH3O-, and CH3CH2-.

The solubility of copper chloride at 20 °C is 73 g/100 g of water. Kiera adds 100 g of copper chloride to 100 g of water and sti
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

m_{undissolved}=27g

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information of the solubility of copper chloride, as the maximum amount of this salt one can dissolve without having a precipitate, we infer that since just 73 grams are actually dissolved, the following amount will remain solid as a precipitate:

m_{undissolved}=100g-73g\\\\m_{undissolved}=27g

Best regards!
