Why does darkness affect the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Light independent reactions require the energy gathered in the thylakoids.

Photosynthesis can divided into two sub-processes or reactions:

Light-dependent reaction: It converts solar energy into chemical energy that is, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH with the help of photolysisis of water. It takes place in thyllakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Light-independent reaction: It fixes carbon obtained from carbon dioxide into the food or glucose with the help of enzyme RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).

It takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast and does not require the involvement of light however, it requires the products (ATP and NADPH) of the light reaction.

Fixation of 1 molecule of glucose requires 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 9 molecules of ATP and 6 molecules of NADPH.

So, darkness indirectly affects the light-independent reaction.

The given blank can be filled with explicit memory.  

Explanation:

The declarative memory or explicit memory refers to one of the two prime subdivisions of long-term memory. The explicit memory needs conscious thought like recalling or remembering something. It is what the majority of the individuals possess in mind when they think of memory. This form of memory is usually associative, that is, the brain associates the memory together.

A team of biologists develop a new drug, and one team member hypothesizes that the drug is incapable of freely passing across th
kolezko [41]

Answer:the drug is a small non polar molecules

Explanation:the membrane of human cells is a lipid bilayer membrane.this property of the cell regulates the type of substances they can enter into it.a cell is constantly in interaction with it's external environment and needs to take in materials for growth and metabolism.this movement in and out of the cell is determined by the

difference in the concentration of materials, in and outside of the cell.

Some molecules which are small and non polar can easily pass through the cell membrane.this is called simple diffusion.this is so because these small molecules can easily diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane.

Molecules such as oxyhemoglobin gas, nitrogen gas ,carbon dioxide can easily pass through .

Thus the drug been discussed must be small and non polar
