What happens when chlorophyll and other pigments absorb light?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: In the process of photosynthesis, chlorophyll goes into a peculiar excited state which can survive for an unusually long time. Furthermore, the excitation energy can hope from chlorophyll molecule to chlorophyll molecule. In this way a large collection of chlorphyll molecules function as an "antenna" that collects many photons and funnels their energy down to a reaction center, where one particular chlorophyll will lose an electron.

Isotopes of the same element differ in their ____.number of electrons
number of protons
atomic number
mass number

Answers

Isotopes of the same elements differ in their mass number. Isotopes are those elements have the same protons but differs from their neutrons. That is why it differs in their mass number because the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons.

Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group isremoved from ADP to form ATP
added to ADP to form ATP
removed from ATP to form ADP
added to ATP to form ADP

Answers

Answer:

Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is removed from ATP to form ADP.

Explanation:

Hello,

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is an important organic compound with a chemical formula C₁₀H₁₅N₅O₁₀P₂. It helps in metabolic activities and facilitates energy flow in living cells. The adenine in ADP combines with sugar molecules to form adenosine that can accept a phosphate group, upto 3 of them.

ATP is adenosine 5' triphosphate. This molecule is primary energy carrier in living organisms as it stores and transfer energy to living cells.Those in living things, both ATP and ADP store and release energy, more energy is in ATP than ADP.

During hydrolysis, a phosphate group is removed through the breakdown of high-energy bonds called phosphoanhydride bonds and energy is given out as ATP coverts to ADP.

So, the correct answer is the third option.

Answer:

The correct answer is the c = removed from ATP to form ADP

Explanation:

Hello ! Let's solve this!

It is a catabolic process where energy is released and formed from a complex molecule, simpler molecules. In this case, to release energy, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) removes a phosphate group to form ADP (adenosine diphosphate).

The correct answer is the c = removed from ATP to form ADP

Volcanic eruptions cause vog,which is a form of air pollution that contains the toxi gas sulfur dioxide so2. Vog gets pushed arouned by wind and can created rain acid. Explain how sciencetist might investigate the affects of vog on agriculture in the area

Answers

Answer:

Does vog (volcanic smog) impact plants and animals? | U.S. ...

When vog mixes directly with moisture on the leaves of plants it can cause severe chemical burns, which can damage or kill the plants. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas can also diffuse through leaves and dissolve to form acidic conditions within plant tissue.

Describe an environmental factor that could influence natural selection and increase genetic diversity.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

   Natural selection is the selection of species and organisms in a given region, or even different ecosystems that are in synergy between each other. Other mechanisms of species evolution include genetic drift, gene flow, mutations, and geographic isolation. The basic concept of natural selection is that favorable traits that are hereditary become more common in succeeding generations of a population of reproductive organisms, and that unfavorable traits that are hereditary become less common. Natural selection acts on the phenotype, or observable characteristics of an organism, such that individuals with favorable phenotypes are more likely to survive and reproduce than those with less favorable phenotypes. Gradually, the idea of ​​plurality of existing species was developed and obtained from the evolutionary process, where natural selection prioritized some intraspecific variations through the struggle for survival of the fittest.

  According to increase genetic diversity, we can infer that if a sort of animal species are isolated geographically, they are going to reproduce with by themselves, and then can orign such a new specie as the same specie, with the same characteristcs. In another hand, if you have a genetic drift, a gene flow or a mutation, it can changes throughout the species fenotypes and genotypes. Natural selection can force some populations to change their characteristics - to evolve. However, nothing compared to man-made selection triggered by ecological forces, such as selection under the conditions of environmental pollution.

  To answer and summarize this answer, one factor that may influence natural selection and genetic diversity is climate. However we have a lot of factor that can influence naturak selection and genetic diversity, like the region, the quantite of species are living there and mainly the human beings action.

due to the effect of bad weather like extreme cold, some organisms cant survive even in the same specie. For example, goats. The goats with thick fur survive because the weather favors them to live on thereby selecting them so the others die off. they reproduce stronger animals with thicker fur of different thickness and colors making the organisms different and better . ..and diversified.
