Respiration will occur at a faster rate in Germinating peas than in non-germinating peas” and “A lower temperature will slow the rate of Cellular respiration”. Cellular Respiration is essentially the “opposite” of photosynthesis; in other words‚ the equation is made up of the same parts as photosynthesis‚ but the “parts” are set up in reverse order as shown:

absorb more photons for photosynthesis. Eventually‚ the rate of photosynthesis will top out‚ and stop increasing‚ due to the lack of one of the components necessary for photosynthesis. Background: Photosynthesis is a process used primarily by plants but sometimes by other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released. This chemical energy is stored in the form of sugar or glucose molecules. Plants then use this energy to grow‚ they use the CO2 molecules in the atmosphere

energy for life? Plants undergo the process of photosynthesis‚ where they absorb light energy and convert it into sugar. This process expels oxygen‚ which all living things require to survive. In addition‚ plants are a food‚ and hence an energy source‚ for many living creatures‚ making them essential in the food chain. 3. Describe the purpose‚ process‚ and chemical and energy components of photosynthesis and the source of each component (e.g. CO2 is found in the air)? Chloroplast cells in the

PLANT SYSTEMS QUESTION 1979:L. PETERSON/AP BIOLOGY In relation to plants‚ describe in detail one way of: a) measuring the rate of transpiration b) measuring the rate of photosynthesis c) separating pigments Essay : Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from land plants into the atmosphere‚ causing movement of water through the plant from the soil to the atmosphere via roots‚ shoot and leaves‚ which occurs mainly through the stomata. Factors which can affect the rate of transpiration are

the following is not associated with photosynthesis? a. Use of bacteriorhodopsin as a light-driven proton pump b. Light-driven oxidation of hydrogen sulfide in purple bacteria c. Oxygen production by Prochlorococcus d. Photoautotrophy e. All of the above are associated with photosynthesis 3. Correctly complete the following sentence: Cyclic photophosphorylation…. a. Is catalyzed by photosystem II in oxygenic phototrophs b. Is required to generate electrons for CO2 reduction in green sulfur bacteria

Question 1 .4 out of 4 points Use the image below to answer the following question. The world ’s average footprint per person is about 2.7 hectares per person. At that size‚ we are depleting our renewable resources 30% faster than they can replenish. The U.S. average footprint is 9.4 hectares‚ which is approximately __________ times larger than the average world footprint. Answer Selected Answer: 3.5 Correct Answer: 3.5 . Question 2 .0 out of 4 points Which of the following

Sugarcane is one of the world’s major food-producing C4 crops‚ providing about 75 % of sugar produced in the world for human consumption (Souza et al. 2008). World sugarcane production is close to 1.9 billion tonnes per annum and is concentrated in tropical regions‚ particularly developing nations in Latin America‚ Africa and Asia. India is the second largest producer of sugar after Brazil with a global share of 17% in 2014-15. Over five million farmers are involved in the cultivation of sugarcane

Dissolved oxygen enters water through the air and plant. Dissolved oxygen produce by the atmosphere and the process is called air saturation. The gasses a stable body of water with no stratification‚ dissolved oxygen will remain at 100% air saturation. 100% air saturation means that the water is holding as many dissolved gas molecules as it can in equilibrium. At equilibrium‚ the percentage of each gas in the water would be equivalent to the percentage of that gas in the atmosphere like its partial

are large cytoplasmic organelles. Plastids are major organelles found in the cells of plants and algae. Plastids are the site of manufacture and storage of important chemical compounds used by the cell. Plastids often contain pigments used in photosynthesis‚ and the types of pigments present can change or determine the cell’s colour. The term plastid was derived from the Greek word plastikas meaning formed or moulded. This term was coined by Schimper in 1885. In plants‚ plastids may differentiate

is necessary for photosynthesis which creates food for plants which is food for animals. 4. A. In Part I of the procedure‚ what is the name of the indicator used to identify the presence of CO2? Phenol Red 4. B. What color did the indicator turn after blowing air into the water through the straw? Yellow 5. A. What color did the indicator turn after the tube was placed under a light source for 30 minutes? Light red 5. B. Why did this occur? Because the light‚ water‚ and CO2 were creating photosynthesis
