The sodium-potassium pump does not do which of the following actions?

1 answer:

7 0

The sodium-potassium pump does not allow the movement of sodium molecules against their concentration gradient into the cell with the use of ATP molecules.

In sodium-potassium pump, the sodium moves outside the cell whereas potassium moves inside the cell with the help of using ATP molecules. The sodium-potassium pump maintains the gradient of higher concentration of sodium extracellularly means outside the cell and a higher level of potassium intracellularly means inside the cell. This process is done only in the presence of ATP molecules that provides a force for the movement of sodium and potassium so we can conclude that no movement of sodium occur inside the cell in the sodium-potassium pump.

Sequence for the movement of electrons during the light dependent reaction

Explanation:

1.These reactions occur within specialised membrane discs within the chloroplast called thylakoids and involve three steps: Excitation of photosystems by light energy. Production of ATP via an electron transport chain. Reduction of NADP+ and the photolysis of water.

2.The cyclic light-dependent reactions occur only when the sole photosystem being used is photosystem I. Photosystem I excites electrons which then cycle from the transport protein, ferredoxin (Fd), to the cytochrome complex, b6f, to another transport protein, plastocyanin (Pc), and back to photosystem

3.Light-dependent reaction. In photosynthesis, the light-dependent reaction uses light energy from the sun to split water (photolysis). ... Water, when broken, makes oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons. These electrons move through structures in chloroplasts and by chemiosmosis, make ATP

4.The two products of the light-dependent reactions of photosystem are ATP and NADPH. The movement of high energy electrons releases the free energy that is needed to produce these molecules. The ATP and NADPH are used in the light-independent reactions to make sugar.

Identify the organelle with the following structure or function from the list below:

Mila [183]

The organelle you're looking for should be cholorplasts.

Chloroplasts are double membrane bound organelles, which is important for the process so photosynthesis. The outer membrane is smooth and gives the shape of the chloroplast, while the inner membrane forms sac that contains chlorophyll inside.

Chloroplasts exists in green plants that photosynthesize for energy, and they appear the most in mesohpyll cells, a type of cells in leaf.
