A. C4 and CAM plants are plants that use certain special compounds to gather carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) during photosynthesis. Using these compounds allows these plants to extract more CO 2 from a given amount of air‚ helping them prevent water loss in dry climates. CAM and C4 plants are similar with the exception that CAM only opens up the stomata’s at night. They both photosynthesis at the same rate for the majority at a time and are tolerate to heat. Plus C4 closes their stomata’s during hot

DISCUSSION Photosynthesis is a process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis takes place in the plant leaves. In the leaves‚ there are mesophyll cells that have chloroplasts‚ where the photosynthesis occurs. During experiment‚ two leaves were tested for the presence and localization of starch. One leaf was a light-grown plant with mask‚ and the other was a dark-grown plant with mask. Both leaves were soaked in iodine solution and then

called photosynthesis. This process assists in nourishing plants and keeping them alive. For example‚ trees grow very tall in the rainforest where there is an abundance of water in order to reach as much light as they can. For this reason‚ in order to survive the chloroplast in plants must capture light energy from the sun and convert it into chemical energy that is stored in sugar and other organic molecules (Photosynthesis‚ 2014‚ p. 185). In plants that contain chlorophyll‚ the photosynthesis process

Liuyi Bian P2 1. The physical structure of a protein often reflects and affects its function. (a) Describe THREE types of chemical bonds/interactions found in proteins. For each type‚ describe its role in determining protein structure. Different types of bonds/interactions in proteins lead to different kinds of structures. Three of the most commonly known chemical bonds in proteins include the hydrogen bond‚ the covalent bond‚ and the ionic bond. In hydrogen bonds‚ hydrogen interacts with

An eco-column is used to model an ecosystem on a smaller scale. The purpose of an eco-column is to examine how an actual ecosystem would respond to different conditions. Eco-columns typically have three chambers: the aquatic chamber‚ decomposition chamber‚ and terrestrial chamber. The aquatic chamber contains water and an aquatic plant‚ and it is at the bottom of the eco-column. The decomposition chamber contains items that will work as decomposers and as a possible catalyst for plant growth. Examples

is the third stage in cellular respiration and it occurs in the mitochondria. Photosynthesis: What is the overall goal of photosynthesis? - The purpose of photosynthesis is to produce energy for the plants to live on. Because photosynthesis only occurs in plants‚ why is it essential to animal life? - It works in a food chain. The animals eat the plants. If the plant doesn’t go through photosynthesis then the plant will die‚ eventually killing off all forms of life. What is the
