Answer:
To produce energy in form of ATP
Explanation:
The thylakoid membrane harbors photosystems that will receive light photons, ejecting electrons from a main chlorophyl molecule in a reaction center, to other acceptors. These electrons will reach the electron transport chain to create a proton gradient, and subsequently, to produce ATP. Later on these electrons will reach the other photosystem, to produce reducing power. This is in plants.
Cyclic photosystems also exist, in some bacteria, for example, and only produce energy as ATP. They also have an electron transport chain.
Answer:
B. more cells than smaller organisms
Explanation:
Animals and plants are multi-cellular eukaryotic creatures. Eukaryotes tend to be bigger than prokaryotes, but, more importantly, eukaryote means multiple cells, and prokaryote is one.
Answer:
A. Water molecules are split.
Explanation:
The light dependent reactions of photosynthesis require the energy in sunlight to proceed. Structures called photosystems which contain chlorophyll absorb the light from the sun to generate excited electrons, which are transferred to electron carriers ATP and NADH.
These electron carriers are used in the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
During this process, the high energy electrons are passed to an acceptor molecule and replaced with an electron from water. This splitting of water produces H+ ions and oxygen as a byproduct. The splitting of water is called photolysis
Another important function of microfilaments is to help divide the cell during mitosis (cell division) microfilaments aid the process of cytokinesis which is when the cell “pinches off” and physically separated into two daughter cells
Pretty much the roots suck the water up like a straw. (The property responsible for this is unknown to me).
