From a photosynthetic perspective, explain why plants need water. In other words, where in the plant cell and when is what used during photosynthesis.
In photosynthesis, the total reactions are classified as light reactions (light dependent reactions) and dark reactions (light independent reactions). All these reactions occur in chloroplast of the cell. During the light reactions the assimilatory power i.e. ATP and NADPH will be synthesized.
So, in the light reactions, when the sunlight hits the reaction center of photosystem I, it excites and releases electrons, these electrons passes through electron carriers. Later again after the sunilght hits the reaction center of photosystem II, again it releases the electrons, these will fill electron gaps of PS I reaction center. To fill the gap at reaction center of PS II, the hydrolysis the water takes place at OEC complex. The water produces 1/2O2, 2Protons and two electrons during hydrolysis. The oxygen will be released in to the atmosphere through stomata, those protons moves to stroma from lumen, and these two electrons transfer reaciton centre of the ps II.
This is the main role of water in photosynthesis.

When a plant grows, the atoms used come from carbon dioxide in the air and water. Plants are able to accomplish this through the process of photosynthesis, cellular respiration and biosynthesis of macromolecules. Briefly explain the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis: where does this take place, what are the reactants and what is produced? How do plants store excess product from these reactions?
Explain why photosynthesis generally produces a large amount of Rubisco. Explain from the perspective of an FBI why C4 plants keep rubisco in bundle sheath cells.
EXAM 3: CHAPTER 7 1. Why are photosynthetic organisms also considered autotrophic? What are heterotrophic organisms? How are both autotrophs and heterophs the same when it comes to the use of organic molecules to produce energy? 2. What is the particular part that oxygen plays in photosynthesis and cellular respiration? 3. Describe the structural aspects of photosynthesis. For example, where does photosynthesis take place and what parts inside the cell are used to carry out photosynthesis? What chemicals are necessary...
Need help with reviewing my lab report -- Question on Germinating Seeds Plants and plants have been studied for hundreds of years, dating back to the geological era of the Holocene, which began around 11,700 years ago. How to study its effects was by noting the effects of the plants on humans, i.e. herbal medicine, which is the doctrine of how to use herbs in various ways to promote health. Fast-forward to 1665 and using an early microscope to detect...
An extremely important process is called "CARBON FIXATION' What is carbon fixation? This is where plants incorporate CO_2 into organic compounds-the base of our food web This is where plants strip electrons from organic food molecules This is the stage in photosynthesis where glucose appears This is the stage in Calvin cycle where ribulose bisphosphate is regenerated, ready for a new cycle This is where photosynthetic species are eaten, moving their energy into the food web Plants couple tow photosystems...
3. Based on your results, how does light intensity effect photosynthesis? 4. Plants use photosynthesis to make for the plant. 5. What do plants need in order to perform photosynthesis? NELLE 6. How is the plant able to obtain each "ingredient?" 7. Identify the plant cell organelle in which photosynthesis takes place. 8. Summarize the process of photosynthesis. Water and carbon enter the chloroplast... 9. What happens to the oxygen that is produced as a result of photosynthesis? 10. Why...
During photosynthesis plants take in inorganic Co, and water converting them to organic compounds such as glucose. Glucose can be utilized to produce energy or become stored in the form of starch in different parts of the plant. Some scientists wanted to learning more about the transporting system of plants, so they labeled the carbon atoms in the Co, so that they can trace their path through the plant's body. Which part of the vascular tissue of the plant you...
Photosynthesis and Chloroplasts You will read that only plants, algae, and some bacteria are photosynthetic. There is an exception to this, however. One species of sea slug has found a way to steal chloroplasts, store them in glands lining its digestive tract, and live on the sugar that is produced (Milius, 2010). The sea slug has even commandeered the genes to help repair these chloroplasts to keep them working for 9 months—longer than the algae would (Fang, 2015)! What if...
For 8 marks, explain why networking components need more examination from an information security perspective than from a systems development perspective.
Bryophytes & Seedless vascular plants: Be able to define a true “plant” Know how plants differ from other photosynthetic organisms (green algae, cyanobacteria) Understand that land plants share a common ancestor with green algae Be familiar with the four stages in land plant evolution, and know that both bryophytes and seedless vascular plants arose in the first stage seedless vascular plants diversified and dominated the Earth in the second stage, during the Carboniferous Period (~350-300 MYA), when coal deposits were...
