Answer:

a. The electrons provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

d. The photolysis of water releases H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

Explanation:

This question describes the first stage of photosynthesis, which is LIGHT-DEPENDENT REACTION. The light dependent reactions involve creating ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier) needed for the Calvin cycle (light independent stage) to occur.

The ATP is formed by pumping hydrogen ions (H+) into the thylakoid space/lumen, hence, creating a electrochemical gradient needed for ATP synthase to synthesize ATP. The buildup of H+ ions is caused by:

- The electrons that arise when light photons hit a chlorophyll molecule is used to provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

- The photolysis of water results in the production of electrons (e-) and hydrogen ions (H+). These hydrogen ions are released into the thylakoid space.

Explain why you think the current model of the atom will or will not change over time ?
KiRa [710]

I think it will change, because over the years they have found different ways to show the atom, and different discoveries. We always have a new chance to discover something new about the atom.

Which of the following describes the embryonic period? the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to
muminat

Answer:

Option (2).

Explanation:

Zygote is formed by the fusion of the male and female gamete during the process of sexual reproduction. The zygote undergoes further development inside the female womb.

The embryonic period starts from the third week after the conception. The important organs and structure development occur during the embryonic period. The formation of three germ layers occur in this period.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2)

14. Operons allow prokaryotes to
Vladimir79 [104]
14: Operons allow prokaryotes to replicate DNA at the appropriate time.

Operons are specific regions of genes that are linked to a singular process. They ensure that the expression of these genes does not go unchecked and only occurs when necessary. Two key examples of this in humans are the lac operon and trp operon. 

15. The central dogma of molecular biology is:

DNA to RNA to Proteins

Protein Synthesis occurs in 3 steps. 

First our DNA is translated into RNA. Next the RNA is sequenced into Amino Acids by reading the corresponding 3-Base Codons. These Amino Acid sequences form various protein structures.
