Answer:

Oxygen.

Explanation:

Oxygen molecule that is produced in the light dependent reactions. This shutting down of linear electron flow greatly affected the production of oxygen. Photosystem II gains replacement electrons from splitting of water molecules into hydrogen ions (H+) and oxygen atoms so if the electron flow is disturbed then oxygen production is greatly affected.

The increase in the concentration of contaminants in the tissues of animals high on the food chain is termed which of the follow
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

(A) Bioaccumulation

Explanation:

When the concentration of certain substances in the bodies of the organisms of various trophic levels keeps on increasing as they pass through the food chain, the process is called bioaccumulation or biomagnification.

Most of the organic non-biodegradable pollutants/chemicals exhibit bioaccumulation. Being insoluble in water, these chemicals are accumulated in the fat tissues of the organisms.

As the predator feeds on the prey having a non-biodegradable chemical in its tissues, the chemical enters the body of the predator.

As these chemicals pass through the food chain, there is a gradual increase in their concentration stored in the living tissues of the organisms. Therefore, the top consumers exhibit maximum bioaccumulation of contaminants in a food chain.

Strawberry DNA Extraction lab What was the purpose of the Sodium Chloride? Include a discussion of polarity and charged particle
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Sodium chloride removes proteins from DNA and helps in DNA precipitation.

Explanation:

The Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is negatively charged due to the highly polar phosphate groups that make up the phosphate backbone. The molecules of water are also highly polar and they have positive charge, thereby water molecules interact with the negative charges of the DNA. The sodium chloride generates temporary attraction forces between sodium (positive) ions and the DNA backbone (negative), thereby DNA can be disassociated from the aqueous layer. Moreover, sodium chloride helps to remove proteins (histones) that bound to DNA and also helps to maintain proteins in the aqueous layer.
