What could be used to monitor the rate of photosynthesis in a plant?
the consumation rate of oxigen (or better : the production rate).
Why does photosynthesis occur deep in the ocean?
The water refracts the sun's rays and the sun reaches the shallow ocean floors to enable photosynthesis. This happens so often because water reflects light and the rays go through the water, much like how you get more tan by being in the water than lying out on a towel.
Photosynthesis.
6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
-------------------------------------------
Cellular respiration.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
One is the opposite of the other. Photosynthesis is an anabolic ( composition/synthesis ) reaction which builds sugar out of carbon dioxide and water to get food and building material.
Cellular respiration is a catabolic ( combustion ) reaction that breaks down and reduces glucose to gain energy from ATP.
What is the process of photosynthesis-?
Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds. Here is a diagram.
What form do the products of photosynthesis stored?
The products of photosynthesis are primarily stored in the form of glucose, a simple sugar that plants use for energy and growth. This glucose can be converted into starch, which serves as a longer-term energy storage molecule. Additionally, some of the glucose is used to synthesize cellulose, a structural component of plant cell walls. These stored forms enable plants to utilize energy during periods when sunlight is not available.
What are the different cellular structures primarily responsible for photosynthesis and respiration?
for photosynthesis the structures are chloroplast,mitochondria, ribosomes, and the vacuole.And for cellular it is glucose,cytoplasm, and mitochondria.but what is Recall the substances needed for respiration
Why is photosynthesis high during the day and respiration during the night?
ok first: cellular respiration is when MITOCHONDRIA (((PLANT OR ANIMAL CELL ORGANISM))) gets from us carbon dioxide and turn it to oxygen so we can inhale it. second : mitochondria only works on daylight it uses SUNLIGHT to do this photosynthesis or as some say carbon dioxide filtering. NOTE:MITOCHONDRIA ON PLANTS DOES MORE THAN 1 THING IT ALSO USES SUNLIGHT TO MAKE SUGAR FOR FOOD
What cell organelles are responsible for photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Photosynthesis: CO2 +H2O + Light Energy ----> O2 + carbohydrate Photsynthesis takes place in plants cells and in some bacteria. It takes place in the chloroplasts, which are little green circles of pigment. The light reactions take place in the chloroplast's thylakoids and the dark reactions take place in the stroma. The light reactions reduce water into oxygen and the dark reactions convert CO2 into energy. Respiration: O2 + carbohydrate -----> CO2 + H20 + energy CELL RESPIRATION OCCURS IN THE MITOCHONDRIA!!!!!!!
Why is the light dependent reactions called the light dependent reaction?
it is the first stage because the product of the light dependent reaction is ATP and NADPH+H+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen) and these are required in the light independent reaction (calvin-benson cycle)
I hope this helps :DDD
What are the energy sources for the calvin cycle?
The energy sources for the Calvin cycle are ATP and NADPH, which are produced during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These molecules provide the necessary energy and reducing power for the conversion of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in the Calvin cycle.
What does aquatic plants need for photosynthesis?
Photosynthetic plants are plants that use photosynthesis, or the process of turning sunlight into sugar, for engergy.
The production of ATP in photosynthesis is called?
it requires energy to be lost from the downhill movement of the excited electron from photosystem 2 to photosystem 1.
the energy lost is coupled to ATP formation
Role of NADP in photosynthesis?
The role of NADP is to carry the hydrogen atom from the light dependent stage, which comes from the water molecule ( water molecule splits to form H+ , 2electrons & oxygen, which is a waste gas). NADP carries this hydrogen atom n gets reduced.
mostly stored water, as they are well adapted to the dry desert environment.
What are the two energy conversions that takes place during photosynthesis?
Three energy conversions that occur in photosynthesis are the following. Light is converted into chemical energy. Then the energy is used with CO2 to produce sugar. This sugar is then available to be combined with CO2 and being the cycle again.
Does photosynthesis result in release of oxygen?
I do believe so but I'm not a 100% sure hoped I helped ( I know I didn't im just trying to heel :) )
What is necessary for photosythesis to occur?
Water, sunlight, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll are necessary for photosynthesis to occur.
Why do animals don't have to go through photosynthesis?
Because animals are able to go and get food from their surroundings unlike plants. Plants need photosynthesis because they aren't able to hunt food from around them or use their prey as food like us humans and animals.
The inside of the thylakoid membrane becomes positively charged during light-dependent reactions because the movement of electrons along the electron transport chain creates a proton gradient across the membrane. This proton gradient is used to generate ATP through the process of chemiosmosis.
What are the two results from the process of photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis consumes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and releases oxygen.
Where does the H ions by kid up during the light dependent reactions?
Well the hydrogen in the water molecules lose their electrons to photosystem II and oxygen gas is formed because oxygen must exists as a molecule (or else it is unstable), the electrons use the sunlight energy collected by the chlorophyll molecules to enter a transport chain which then they enter the cytochrome in which the electrons then enter another transport chain causing Hydrogen ions to enter the thykaloids from the stroma. This causes a concentration gradient that powers the ATP synthases to produce ATP. The low energy electrons enter photosystem 1 and then use the sunlight energy to enter the transport chain which travels to NADP Reductase where the electrons are attached to the NADP+ which then turns into NADPH.
