What is the function of ATP in the light independent reaction?

What is the function of ATP in the light independent reaction? The light-independent reactions use the ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions to reduce carbon dioxide and convert the energy to the chemical bond energy in carbohydrates such as glucose. What raw materials are used in light-independent reactions? Practice In photosynthesis, oxygen, carbon dioxide, […]

What is the main function of integrated circuit?

What is the main function of integrated circuit? An integrated circuit, or IC, is small chip that can function as an amplifier, oscillator, timer, microprocessor, or even computer memory. An IC is a small wafer, usually made of silicon, that can hold anywhere from hundreds to millions of transistors, resistors, and capacitors. What are the […]

How does a photon interacts with matter?

How does a photon interacts with matter? In a pair-production interaction, the photon interacts with the nucleus in such a manner that its energy is converted into matter. The interaction produces a pair of particles, an electron and a positively charged positron. These two particles have the same mass, each equivalent to a rest mass […]

Why is energy released in a fission reaction?

Why is energy released in a fission reaction? Fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei (such as uranium) – in two smaller nuclei. This process needs less energy to ‘bind’ them together – so energy is released. The larger nuclei again needs less energy to hold it together – so energy is released. What is […]

How do you activate the ciliary muscles?

How do you activate the ciliary muscles? Activation of the M3 muscarinic receptors, acetylcholine receptors that are formed by G-protein complexes, trigger the contraction of the ciliary muscle and reduce the diameter of the ciliary muscle ring. Contraction allows the zonular fibers to relax and the lens becomes more spherical to improve near vision. What […]

What is the relationship between orchids and fungi?

What is the relationship between orchids and fungi? Luckily for the orchid and the fungi, the symbiosis they share is a sweet one, mostly mutual. Orchid mycorrhiza is the symbiotic process wherein juvenile orchids rely on special fungal symbionts to supply them with carbohydrates and in exchange the fungi receive moisture and access to organic […]

What makes a fast race car?

What makes a fast race car? Racing cars are designed to go fast, and any vehicle travelling at high speeds must be able to both reduce air resistance and generate downforce in order to stay stable on the road. Every car is covered in a variety of wings, splitters and diffusers, which direct air over […]
