Carbohydrates lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken down to produce what?
Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken to produce simple molecules like carbon-dioxide and water.
Where does the carbon come from that plants used to produce carbon dioxide?
From carbohydrates
What does photosynthesis convert carbon dioxide and water into?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into a sort of starch-like food that they use to produce energy. It contains carbohydrates and amino acids/proteins.
Does plasma membrane produce proteins?
No. All genetic information is contained in the nucleus, not the plasma membrane, which consists of phospholipids, proteins, carbohydrates, and cholesterol.
Of nucleic acids carbohydrates proteins and lipids which do cells produce the most of and why?
Cells produce the most proteins because they primarily make up the human body. All our phenotypes (traits) are expressed from DNA by proteins.
The carbon to produce carbohydrates in the second stage of photosynthesis comes from?
I think the answer is carbon dioxide
Where does the carbon come from that plants use to produce carbon dioxide?
The carbon in plants come from the carbon found in carbon dioxide (CO2). As plants undergo photosynthesis they draw in water through their roots and carbon dioxide from the air through specialized structures called stomates. So the inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide becomes organic carbon making up the oils, carbohydrates and proteins found in plants.
Is cabon dioxide and water are necessary for photosynthesis?
Yes, in photosynthesis water reacts with carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and oxygen gas.
Do the non-cyclic electron pathways produce carbohydrates through carbon dioxide fixation?
yes
What does mitochondria produce besides ATP?
carbon dioxide and waterThey can produce proteins too.They got own DNA and ribosomes
What waste material does respiration produce?
water, carbon dioxide and heat.
Which substance do plants use to produce biomass?
Biomass is the total dry mass of an organism. In other words it is the name given to the material that makes up a living organism, excluding water. Therefore it is the compounds such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins etc. Plants produce biomass when they grow. To produce biomass plants need carbon dioxide and water (which they use to make glucose in photosynthesis) but they also need some nitrogen to make proteins, and some phosphorous so they can make DNA. They get these in mineral salt compounds called nitrates and phosphates from the soil. Confusingly biomass is also a term used for biological material that can be processed to make biofuel.
