What are the two stages of photosynthesis?

The two stages of photosynthesis are the light dependent and the light independent. During the light reactions, light is converted into energy by a process of transferring electrons to and from a special chemical called NADP. In the light independent stage, called the Calvin Cycle, which uses that energy to change carbon dioxide into sugars for the cell's use.


What is photolysis and mention its importance in photosynthesis?

Photolysis is any reaction where a chemical compound splited by photon (units of light). In a lay man's language splitting up a chemical compound in presence of light. In photosynthesis photons split water molecule into its constituents and release energy in the form of electrons which are transported to the electron transport chain along electopotential gradient The reaction is a s follows H2A + 2 photons (light) 2e- + 2H+ + A A can be oxygen or in purple sulfur or cyanobacteria can be S


What is the conjunction is this sentence......you were late for the biology class and you missed the test?

The conjunction in the sentence is "and," which is joining two independent clauses together.


Is a light bulb a living think if not why?

No, a light bulb is not a living thing because it does not exhibit characteristics of living organisms such as growth, response to stimuli, reproduction, or metabolism. Light bulbs are man-made objects that rely on electricity to produce light and do not have the characteristics of living organisms.


How is bioluminescence different from the light produced by light bulbs?

Bioluminescence is light produced by living organisms through a chemical reaction, while light bulbs produce light through electricity passing through a filament. Bioluminescence is typically a natural, cold light, whereas light bulbs emit artificial, warm light. Additionally, bioluminescence is often used by organisms for communication, camouflage, and attracting prey, while light bulbs are man-made sources of artificial light.

Are thylakoid membranes the site of the light reactions?

Yes, thylakoid membranes are the site of the light reactions in photosynthesis. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and other pigments in the thylakoid membranes, leading to the production of ATP and NADPH, which are used in the Calvin cycle to produce sugars.

Can a man get wet without getting hard?

Yes, a man can get wet without becoming aroused. Physical responses like getting wet can occur due to various reasons, such as being in water or sweating, which are not necessarily linked to sexual arousal. The body's reactions can be independent of each other, allowing for such occurrences.
