BLINK protein speeds up stomatal movements in response to light fluctuations resulting in improved plant growth and water use.
Plants can't move, so their “blinking” helps protect them from burning or bleaching when they are in bright sun.
I'm not sure if the first part is right, but I do know the second part is.
<u>Answer</u>:- Active transport
<u>Explanation</u>:-
There are two types of membrane transports
1. Passive transport - this type of transport occurs without the input of any energy and the molecules move along the concentration gradients that is from <em>high concetration to low concentration.</em>
2. Active transport- this type of transport takes place to move the molecules against the concentration gradient that is from <em>low concentration to high concentration.</em>
<em>The active transport is of two types:</em>
1. <em>Primary active transport-</em> in this type of transport <em>ATP</em> is used as an energy source to move the substances against the concentration gradient.
2.<em>Secondary active transport</em> - in this type of transport the gradient formed by the active transport is utilized and it involves the movement of 2 substances at a time aross the membrane. That is the movement of one molecule is coupled to another.
- The membrane proteins that are associated with active transport are called as <em>carrier proteins</em>. These proteins have a binding site for the molecules that they transport. Once they bind to the specific molecules, a conformation change is induced and this leads to the transport of the molecule across the membrane.
So, the <em>active transport is basically responsible for utilizing the energy from ATP and carrier proteins to move the substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient i.e. from low concentration to high concentration.</em>
Answer: A simple word equation that can be used to describe the process of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen + water. A balanced chemical equation for the process can be written as 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2. Overall, photosynthesis uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide into a carbohydrate.
Explanation:
<span>Here is an essay I wrote on renewable energy feel free to use some of it:
</span><span>Solar power:1. The definition of solar power is power obtained by harnessing the energy of the sun's rays.2. Using solar power can be better for the environment than coal. It is local.3. Solar power can be very expensive. There isn’t always sun, so we can not always get power from this resource.4. Solar power plants take up land often resulting in habitat loss, and some use hazardous materials in making solar power panels.5. Using this resource is better for the environment than using coal, but since there isn’t always sun, we can not always get power from this resource.6. Solar power cost more to create and to use than coal does.
7. Photovoltaics (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) are used to collect energy from the sun.
8. The sun hits the solar panels and generates DC electricity. The energy then goes into a solar inverter that turns the DC energy into AC energy, which is then used to power things.
9. Two potential hazards in using this resource are the materials used to make it, and habitat loss.
10. If solar power were our primary way of getting electricity a lot of land would be taken up by the solar power plants, resulting in the loss of a lot of animal habitats. Also, the sun isn’t out 24/7, so we can not always get power from this resource.<span>
</span></span><span>Since I believe that our country is already headed in this direction anyway, I would suggest that we invest in the use of more renewable resources. I would suggest that we use geothermal as our main way to get our hot water for our homes, hydropower for electricity in states with an abundant water supply, and the combination of wind and solar power for electricity as well. I think we would have cleaner air and it would be more efficient. Both renewable and non-renewable have their pros and cons, and I personally believe that in this day and age we would have a hard time functioning without both of them. But I do think that using more renewable resources would be a good investment.</span>
