Bananas (and other fruits) change as they ripen.

Biology
1 answer:
alekssr [168]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

What happens to the carbohydrate molecules in the fruit as they ripen?

During ripening, there is an increase in the breakdown of starch inside the fruit, and a corresponding increase in the amount of simple sugars which taste sweet, such as sucrose, glucose, and fructose. This process is particularly obvious in bananas as they ripen. Green bananas do not taste sweet at all, and the riper they get, the sweeter they taste. There is also a decrease in acidity as the fruit ripens and a decrease in bitter plant substances, such as alkaloids. Last, as fruits ripen they produce complex compounds that are released into the surrounding air, giving a ripe fruit its pleasant aroma.

Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called
Karolina [17]

Answer: Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called a "tract"

Explanation:

Axons(nerve fiber) consist of long slender projection of neurons or nerve cells that conduct and transmit impulses away from the neuron or nerve cell body. Axons are surrounded by endoneurium layer which contain protein fluid that surround each axon.

Bundles of axon in the CNS is known as tract. We have ascending tracts and descending tracts. The ascending tracts function are to conduct and carry impulses along the spinal cord to the brain while the descending tracts transmit and carry the impulses from the brain to lower regions (downward) of the body. Tracts are identified by their origin (where the bundle start) and also the end/termination of axon bundle.

The largest tracts are fasciculi gracilis and cuneatus which are known as ascending tracts.

Hello! I have a question and I ask if you can make it a bit detailed. I am struggling to understand the Calvin Cycle in the proc
igomit [66]

Absolutely!  The Calvin Cycle is a process that takes place within the stroma of chloroplasts during photosynthesis.  This cycle is a light-independent reaction because it does not need sunlight to fully develop.  The process is, however, dependent on ATP and NADHP from those light reactions.

If you want a really good study guide for the Calvin Cycle, just follow this link; it helps A LOT!
