Answer:

Cell membrane

Explanation:

According to the question, Lauren's diseased condition, which is cystic fibrosis, is characterized by her body's inability to control the flow of salt into and out of her cells leading to symptoms include coughing and wheezing when she tries to exercise.

Lauren's inability to control the movement of salt and water into her cells is as a result of an affected CELL MEMBRANE. The cell membrane is the organelle that controls what goes in and out of a cell due to its semi-permeability.

In your own words, give a brief overview of the process of photosynthesis. Include where each phase place within a plant cell.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Photosynthesis has two parts: the light-dependent reactions and the dark reactions (the Calvin cycle). Photosynthesis in a general sense, uses CO2 and water to create C6H12O6 (glucose) and oxygen. The light-dependent reactions use water to make oxygen, and a reduced energy carrier (NADPH) is also created. The Calvin cycle uses carbon dioxide and ATP to create G3P for glucose.

The light-dependent reactions occur on the membrane of the thylakoid and also involve shuttling electrons across different complexes (photosystem II and photosystem I), eventually causing ATP to be created with a proton gradient.

The light-independent reactions/Calvin cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast and also involve shuffling carbons around. Carbon dioxide is processed in three stages, and glucose is made from 6 CO2.
