I believe you meant to ask about an endoscope. An endoscope is a flexible tube with a light and camera attached to it that is used to examine the interior of organs or cavities in the body, typically for medical purposes such as diagnosing or treating conditions in the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system, or other parts of the body.
Why are fungi not able to carry out photosynthesis?
In order to photosynthesis a plant needs a substance called chlorophyll, which helps produce sugars from sunlight (as a catalyst) water and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Chlorophyll is a vivid green in colour and is present in the cells of all plants giving plants their green colour. Although growing in the ground like a plant, mushrooms are not ppart of the plant kingdom, but are in a separate group called fungi which includes mushrooms, toadstools, moulds and yeasts. As fungi are not green, but usually a white or grey colour, they do not contain chlorophyll, and so they cannot photosynthesise as they don't have this substance necessary for photosynthesis. Instead, mushrooms and other fungi have to get their nutrients from dead and decaying plants which is why you often see fungus growing on dead wood in forests.
What will happen to the concentration of RuBP and GP if the supply of carbon dioxide is reduced?
If the supply of carbon dioxide is reduced, the concentration of RuBP (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate) will increase as it accumulates without being converted into GP (glycerate-3-phosphate). On the other hand, the concentration of GP will decrease since there will be fewer reactants available for its formation in the Calvin cycle.
Flowering plants, or angiosperms, have a vascular system that consists of xylem and phloem tubes. The flowers themselves do have xylem tubes as well, since they require the water and nutrients that xylem brings from the soil. The xylem and phloem of plants are analogous to the blood vessels in animals. Xylem transports water and nutrients that the roots absorb from the soil. Phloem flows from the top of the plant to the roots, bringing the sugary products of photosynthesis to the rest of the plant and to storage structures (e.g. fruit, roots). In short, yes, flowers have xylem tubes.
What is required for photosynthesis but not respiration?
Light is required for photosynthesis but not for respiration, as respiration can occur in the absence of light. Photosynthesis uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, while respiration breaks down glucose to release energy for cellular functions.
Does plants need sunlight to make sugar as long as they have a source of carbon dioxide and water?
Yes, plants need sunlight to perform photosynthesis, the process by which they convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar. Sunlight provides the energy needed to drive this chemical reaction. Without sunlight, plants would not be able to produce sugar efficiently.
Why use 80 percent acetone as a solvent in extraction of chlorophyll?
80 percent acetone is commonly used as a solvent for extracting chlorophyll because it is a polar solvent that effectively dissolves chlorophyll from plant material. Additionally, acetone is volatile, which allows for easier evaporation of the solvent post-extraction. The 80 percent concentration is often preferred for its balance of solvency and evaporation properties.
The correct order is glycolysis, preparatory reaction, citric acid cycle, and then the electron transport chain. During these steps, the cell gradually breaks down glucose to produce ATP, the cell's main energy source. Each stage in the process plays a specific role in extracting energy from glucose molecules.
Which Organelles is responsible for the process of photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for the process of photosynthesis in plant cells. They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
List and explain the two types of cellular respiration?
the two main types of cellular respiration are aerobic cellular respiration and anaerobic cellular respiration.
No, plants carry out photosynthesis because they contain chloroplasts, not mitochondria. Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis, while mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration.
Why is the role of sunlight in the process of photosynthesis?
Sunlight gives plants the energy it needs to create the process of photosynthesis.
If sunlight didn't do this.
Then plants wouldn't live and there would be no me and no you.
No life.
How does translocation occur in a plant?
Translocation occurs in plants because sugar from a source enters phloem cells by active transport, then when sugar concentration in the phloem increases water enters the sieve tubes in phloem from xylem by osmosis, next pressure builds up inside the sieve-tube cells and pushes sugar through the sieve tubes, lastly sugar moves from the phloem cells into a sink by active transport.
What are the products of photosystem 1 and photosystem 2?
With the light dependent reactions the outputs (products) are oxygen, ATP, and NADPH, which carries the electrons. The oxygen is taken out and put into the environment when the NADPH (which has electrons) continues with ATP to the Calvin Cycle. Depending on how you look at it I would say that the ATP and NADPH are the most important products from the cell internally. However, we need oxygen to breathe. All three are important.
Why is ATP important in ligation reactions?
ATP is important in ligation reactions because it provides the energy necessary for joining two molecules together. During ligation, ATP is used by ligases to form a phosphodiester bond between the molecules being ligated. This process is crucial for DNA and RNA replication, repair, and recombination.
What common between respiration photosynthesis and lithrotropic energy generation?
All three processes involve the conversion of energy. Respiration and lithotrophic energy generation involve the breakdown of organic or inorganic compounds to produce energy, whereas photosynthesis involves the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. Additionally, all three processes are vital for the survival of organisms and play key roles in the global carbon cycle.
Why is photosynthesis important for respiration?
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the processes by which plant and animal cells produce energy, allowing them to function and stay alive.
What are raw materials of cloth?
Common raw materials used to make cloth include natural fibers like cotton, wool, silk, and linen, as well as synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and rayon. These raw materials are processed through spinning, weaving, or knitting to create the fabric used to make clothes.
Maximum photosynthesis occurs in which light?
Blues (~425-450 nm), the reds and yellows (600-700 nm). Red and yellow light is longer wavelength, lower energy light, while the blue light is higher energy.
All plants, however, has chlorophyll a, which absorbs most strongly at ~450 nm, or a bright blue color. This wavelength is strong in natural sunlight, and somewhat present in incandescent lights, but is very weak in traditional fluorescent lights.
Special plant lights increase the amount of light of this wavelength that they produce. But a 400-500 nm wavelength bulb wouldn't be enough, since many plants take cues for germination, flowering, and growth from the presence of red light as well.
Good plant lights produce red light as well, giving plants all the wavelengths of light they need for proper growth.
Plants do photosynthesis only and animals do cellular respiration only?
Well plants are autotrophs, so photosynthesis is how they eat, because it is obviously visible plants do not have mouths. We don't need photosynthesis because we eat food like twinkies and meat to get our energy. Respiration is something every eukaryote (plant/animal/fungi/protist) needs to do.
Does chlorophyll absorb red and purple light?
it would look red because the light would reflect on the grass ddddddddddddddduhhhh lol jk
What do you need to complete photosynthesis?
To complete photosynthesis, plants require water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight. Water is absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves, where it is used in the light-dependent reactions. Carbon dioxide is taken in from the atmosphere through small pores in the leaves called stomata. Sunlight provides the energy needed for the photosynthetic process to occur.
What do plants convert the suns energy into?
Energy of sunlight is used to excite electrons to travel through the electron transport chain to produce ATP.
Basically sunlight (in the presence of chlorophyll) converts CO2 + Water into Glucose + water vapour
The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place in the?
Plants need to absorb sunlight in order for photosynthesis to happen. To make photosynthesis efficient a plant needs its photosynthetic cells to be in an area where the surface area is maximized and light absorption can occur optimally. Leaves are where photosynthetic cells are concentrated.
