Plants perform two vital functions photosynthesis which is fixation of solar energy to chemical energy in the form of glucose. This process takes place in chloroplasts. At the same time plants need energy (infact all the living organisms need energy) for their growth and all metabolic processes. This energy is obtained by using glucose and oxygen. This process is known as respration which takes place in mitochiondria. Therefore both these cell organells are required by the plants.
Photosynthetic organisms like chloroplasts absorb billions of tons of CO2 every year!
Most of this carbon returns to the atmosphere via cellular respiration, but much of it remains locked in large tracts of forests and in long-term storage as fossil fuels buried deep under the Earth’s surface

Prompt 2: Please select 2 of the prompts below to discuss: • Compare prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Be sure to include at least 2 similarities and 2 differences. (USLO 2.1) • Identify structures specific to prokaryotic cells and discuss their importance. (USLO 2.2) • Discuss the differences between gram positive and gram negative cell walls. Why is this important information to understand? (USLO 2.3)
Explain the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Include a discussion on how cellular energy is created for the two different cell types.

2. Which of the cells shown above is an autotroph and which is a heterotroph? How can you tell? What organelle does an autotroph need? What process occurs in autotrophs that does not occur in heterotrophs? 3. Identify the organelles labeled A-E here and give one function of each organelle. Is this cell a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell - give one reason for your answer. 4. Which do you think evolved first, a prokaryotic or a eukaryotic cell? Why do...
Mitochondria and chloroplasts were once free-living bacteria that later migrated into eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria make energy while chloroplasts prepare their own food. How can a mitochondrion live by itself? Explain your answer by mentioning the specific processes that this organelle performs. What does a chloroplast do to survive in its free living condition? What important chemicals does it need froma sorrounding primordial soup to prepare its own food? Apart from the process by which chloroplasts prepare their own food, what...
biochemistry Question 2 [10] Tabulate the main differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic replication. Question 3 [10] Describe the basic principle governing Meselson and Stahl's experiment. What would the results of Meselson and Stahl have looked like if DNA replication were conservative? And what would it have looked like if DNA replication were dispersive? [8] Question 4 Describe in detail the structure of tRNA and its function in translation Question 5 [20] 5.1 List the two types of transcription termination mechanisms...
Thought Questions: 1. Why are plant and animal cells considered more closely related than prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? Give three reasons. 2. Although most cells have one nucleus, some have no nucleus while others have multiple nuclei. Name two cells (or cell types) that have no nucleus and two that are multi-nucleate.

please help ways in which fungi are different than bacteria? (Prokaryotic vs. eukaryotic DOESN'T about reproduction, nutrients, environmental conditions they can grow it, etc.) b) Why are 16. a) Explain two COUNT .Think nfections often harder to treat than bacterial infections? (Think about how similar human cells are to fungi and bacteria and how this determines possible treatments.) bacteria is uniellular is muth cellular.
