Answer:
D) In case 1, both PS I and PS II completely lose function; in case 2, a proton gradient is still produced.
Explanation:
The light dependent reaction of photosynthesis, which produces the ATP and NADPH needed in the light independent stage of the process, includes complexes of proteins and pigments called PHOTOSYSTEMS. These photosystems (I and II) are key to the functionality of the light dependent reactions in the thylakoid.
The major pigment present in both photosystems is CHLOROPHYLL A, which absorbs light energy and transfers electrons to the reaction center. Chlorophyll B is only an accessory pigment meaning it can be done without. Hence, if all of the chlorophyll A is inactivated in the algae but leaves chlorophyll B intact as in case 1, both PS I and PS II will lose their function because Chlorophyll A is the major pigment that absorbs light energy in both photosystems.
In case 2, if PS I is inhibited and PS II is unaffected, a PROTON GRADIENT WILL STILL BE PRODUCED because the splitting of water into protons (H+) and electrons (e-) occurs in PSII. Hence, H+ ions can still be pumped into the inner membrane of the thylakoid in order to build a proton gradient even without the occurrence of PS I.
Answer:
The crust is thinner and less dense than the mantle.
Answer:
The correct answer is - C. Plants.
Explanation:
As we know and also given that the pond is usually smaller and shallower than a lake. Due to this reason, ponds have plants growing on the bottom of them from one side to the other as they get enough light as there is only the photic zone in ponds.
In lakes, there are various zones present and the lakes are deep and big to the ponds and the bottom of the lakes did not get sunlight. Plants require sunlight to grow and lakes are usually too deep to get the sunlight for plants to grow on the bottom.
The correct answer is (2) - Stratosphere.
Ozone is found in the stratosphere , a layer beginning between 6 and 10 miles above the earth's surface and extends upward to about 30 mile above the surface of he earth.
The ozone that is found in the stratosphere absorbs most of he harmful ultraviolet sunlight and is thus called the "good ozone"
Ozone is also found in the lower region of the atmosphere known as the troposphere. But the ozone here strongly reacts with molecules causing toxicity in plants. The ozone is therefore termed as "bad ozone."
