PSI (Photosystem I) and PSII (Photosystem II) are two different protein complexes in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts involved in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. PSII functions first in the electron transport chain by absorbing light energy to oxidize water and generate oxygen, while PSI receives electrons from PSII and drives the production of NADPH for the Calvin cycle.

What is the difference between datum dimensioning and chain dimensioning?

Datum dimensioning is where a single reference point is used for all dimensions in a single direction. E.g. If Point A is declared the reference point, then Points B, C, D, etc, will all be measured relative to Point A, not to each other.

Chain dimensioning is where each point is measured to the next. E.g. Point B is measured from Point A, Point C is measured from Point B, Point C is measured from Point B, and so on.

The problem with chain dimensioning is that each measurement relies on the accuracy of the previous measurement. If there is a tolerance associated with each measurement (+/- X), then the tolerance for each subsequent dimension accumulates and becomes the number of measurements times the tolerance of each measurement (+/- n*X).

Since datum dimensioning uses only one reference point, the tolerances cannot accumulate as each measurement is isolated, rather than relying on the accuracy of the previous measurement.

Common practice is to only use datum dimensioning in design drawings to ensure greater accuracy over the entire design without requiring tighter tolerances.

What is the difference between floral initiation and floral induction?

"Floral induction is defined as a chemical or hormonal differentiation resulting from the fulfillment of certain thermo-photoperiodic requirements. Floral initiation is the morphological transformation of an induced growing point from a vegetative to

a floral primordium. Further floral development results in the production

of macroscopic flower." So floral is the hormonal changes that occur that prepare a plant segment to shift from more vegetative growth to creating a reproductive organ (flower). Floral induction occurs before floral initiation, and floral initiation is the beginning of the actual flower.

What is the difference between photocopy and xerox copy?
