6 0

Answer:

They are building blocks for larger polysaccharide which are important in structural rigidity of cells.

Polysaccharides such as Starch and Cellulose which are instrumental in cell structure and rigidity are formed from chains of monosaccharides.

They are also useful in the provision of energy which is used in cell functions (metabolism).

Monosaccharides such as Glucose, Sucrose are useful in provision of energy for physical and metabolic activities of the body.

Answer:

C. CALVIN CYCLE(LIGHT INDEPENDENT REACTIONS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their food (organic matters in form of glucose) from carbon IV oxide and water molecules in the presence of sunlight.

The glucose formed undergoes two purposes; provision of energy and in the fixing of carbon.

This process involved two steps : The light dependent process and the light independent (Calvin cycle).

The light dependent reaction takes place in the thylakoid membrane and requires supply of light energy.

ATP and NADPH are formed, water molecules are also formed.

The light independent reaction occurs in the stoma and does not require light energy. The process used the ATP and NADPH formed from the light dependent reaction to fix carbon and produce three carbon sugars.

So the Calvin cycle light independent reaction is involved in the fixing of carbon molecules into organic molecules in the absence of sunlight and the ATP and NADPH formed from the light dependent process of photosynthesis.

The all-or-none phenomenon as applied to nerve conduction states that the whole nerve cell must be stimulated for conduction to
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:True

Explanation:

Nerve impulse must reach a certain threshold in a neuron before action potential can be generated to intiate conduction of action potential.

Therefore if mutiple impulses are generated and these are not upto thresholds , no matter how strong the stimulI are-NO ACTION POTENTIAL WILL BE GENERATED.

THIS IS ALL OR NONE PRINCIPLE

The all or none hypotheses can be best explain with flushing of the water closet after using it. If required volume of water is not pumped into the water closet storage above, no matter how long the handle is push, FLUSHING WILL NOT TAKE PLACE.Thus the threshold volume of water must be met.

kramer
Answer:
            A tear in right rib muscles has caused the muscles to spasm it would prevent inspiration.

Reason:

               As it is cleared that during inspiration, the intercostal muscles contract, the ribs move upward. the diaphragm flattens and move downward. As a result the chest cavity become open and air move into it. However if the muscles of rib tears then rib will not raise. As a result there will be difficulty in inspiration/
