The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.
Answer:
<em>Cellular transport is the movement of ions or molecules across the membrane of the cell through either active or passive process.</em>
Explanation:
During active transport, ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is used. In passive transport, ATP is not used. In active cellular transport, the ions move across the membrane against the concentration gradient.
For ATP to be used, it has to get hydrolyzed thereby forming ADP and inorganic phosphate. On the other hand, ADP captures the energy through the oxidation process taking place in the cell.
The surviving R strain transformed into a living S strain.
Answer:
D. Enzymes open the DNA strand, remove a segment of DNA from the strand that contains the damage, and resynthesize the correct DNA sequence.
Explanation:
From time to time, the DNA gets exposed to certain chemicals or radiation that damages it. However, the cell has a DNA repair mechanism in place called NUCLEOTIDE EXCISION REPAIR (NER).
NUCLEOTIDE EXCISION REPAIR (NER) is one of the DNA repair mechanisms in which certain enzymes open the DNA strand, remove a segment of DNA that contains the damaged gene or nucleotide bases, and resynthesize the correct DNA sequence using the pair of the damaged one.
