Atmosphere Unit Test

Biology
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]2 years ago
6 0

Carbon moves from the atmosphere to the biosphere and also from the atmosphere to the hydrosphere through a variety of processes.

<h3>Carbon cycle</h3>

Carbon in the form of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is sequestrated by plants (biosphere) through a process known as photosynthesis.

When plants die, their organic matter decomposes into the soil (lithosphere) while some carbon is released back into the atmosphere via decomposition. Soil carbon also helps plants to grow.

Carbon in the atmosphere also gets sequestrated into water bodies (hydrosphere) by dissolution.

Which of the following statements is the most likely explanation for plant withering due to leaky membranes in cold temperatures
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

Explanation:

Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.

In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.

Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

d. cerebellum.

Explanation:

The cerebellum, which is part of the hindbrain, is a small structure made of a covering of white cortex found under the hemispheres of the cerebral cortex. The cerebellum plays a major role in the control and coordination of all physical movements such as balance, control, etc, that has to deal with smooth and balanced activities of the muscle.  

A damage to the cerebellum would most likely lead to impaired motor coordination, staggering, inability to judge distance or when to stop.
