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.

Answer:

Here are the answers:

a. 4  Cell determination as an issue in the *rest is missing*

b. 4  They assumed that different ways of separating an embryo into two parts would be equivalent as far as the fate of the two parts was concerned.

c. 4  I and III only

Explanation:

The passage demonstrates the importance of two factors in the development of an embryo: cleavage planes of division of embryonic cells and cell differentiation.

Cleavage Planes:

Cleavage basically refers to the division of the zygote into a large number of cells called blastomeres. Cleavage planes are geometrical lines or orientations along which cleavage takes place. Since, all embryonic cells are the precursors of some type of body cells, the cleavage planes determine if the cells are adequate for growth and development.

Cell Differentiation:

Cell differentiation is the transition of an undifferentiated cell into a specialized one. For example, stem cells are undifferentiated cells that develop into progenitor cells that mature into a specific cell lineage. For an embryo to regenerate, the presence of adequate embryonic stem cells is crucial. Embryonic stem cells are present in abundance before the gastrulation phase of embryonic development, after which they rapidly start differentiating.
