The process in which water is broken down during the light dependent reactions is called photolysis.

Reaction

H₂O-->1/2O₂+2e⁻+2p⁺

Atomic oxygen is released from the water molecule and reacts with another atomic oxygen to form molecular oxygen(O₂)

The hydrogen atom has only one proton and one electron so one hydrogen atom can be written as(e⁻+p⁺) in the water molecule 2 hydrogen atoms are present so there will be 2e⁻+2p⁺

Therefore the three things that result from photolysis are:

oxygen
protons
electrons

With the knowledge of the nucleotide sequence of a gene, which one of the following could you determine with the most accuracy?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Primary structure of the protein can be determined With the knowledge of the nucleotide sequence of a gene.

Strings of amino acids make up proteins, and strings of nucleotides make up nucleic acids.
A water molecule is removed during a biological process that links the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of a nearby amino acid to generate peptide bonds.
The main structure of a protein is thought to be its linear amino acid sequence.
A codon is a cluster of three mRNA nucleotides that codes for a particular amino acid.
Each mRNA produces a protein that has a specific amino acid sequence corresponding to it. The start and stop of translation are indicated by two codons known as start and stop codons.

Katarina [22]

Banded iron formation, or also referred to as BIF, is unique sedimentary rock of biochemical origin. Unique because of their unique make up, unique age and unique origins. These rocks are very old.

BIF date to as old as 3 billion years old, but most are aged at around 2.5 billion and some are as "young" as 1.8 billion. So, the Earth's oldest banded iron formation is 3 billion years old.
