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.

Another term for the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. The Calvin Cycle

Explanation:

The light-independent reactions cover half of photosynthesis, with the other half being the light-dependent reactions. Another word for this process is the Calvin cycle. It is named after the biologist, Melvin C. Calvin, who discovered it. The Calvin cycle is responsible for turning carbon dioxide into glucose. It also requires no light, hence its other name. Additionally, because it is occasionally called the Calvin cycle, sometimes, the light-dependent reaction is simply called the light cycle.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.It was necessary that each of the two phage components, DNA and protein, be identifiable upon recovery at the end of the experiment

Explanation:

Hershey and chase in his experiment lebelled the T₂ bacteriophage with radioactive sulfur and radioactive phosphorus separately. Then they infect E.coli with T₂phage and separated phage from bacteria by centrifugation.

Because DNA contains phosphorus not protein, cells infected with phage containing radioactive phosphorous showed radioactivity bacause DNA enters the cell not protein confirming DNA is the genetic material and radioactive sulfur was found in supernatant.

Which statement BEST describes the relationship between mass and weight?
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

Hope this helps:)
