Herbicides are chemicals used to kill or inhibit the growth of unwanted plants and weeds. Many herbicides work by blocking elect

ron carriers, or reducing their ability to carry electrons, in the light dependent reactions. One such chemical is DCMU (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea). DCMU is an algaecide and herbicide that works by blocking the electron binding site of plastoquinone. This means that photosystem II is unable to transfer electrons from the splitting of water to plastoquinone. This effectively shuts down the linear flow of electrons in the light dependent reactions. a) Identify the molecule produced in the light dependent reactions that would be most affected by the shutting down of linear electron flow. b) Justify your reasoning with an explanation. c) Connect how the molecule affected in part (a) is used in the Calvin cycle. d) Describe what would effectively happen to the Calvin cycle as a result of exposure to DCMU

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.

01. Why are the birds discussed in this lab called Darwin's finches?​
lapo4ka [179]

Answer: The question is is incomplete, here are the options.

A.Loonand O Charles Darwin named them Geospiza leodarwini in honor of his son Leonard.

B. They come from the Darwin archipelago off the coast of Ecuador C. C. Charles Darwin collected the first scientific specimens.

D.John Gould placed them in the genus Darwinospiza

Correct option is C.

Explanation:

Charles Darwin collected the first scientific specimens.

Darwin's finches play vital role in the development of Darwin's theory of evolution and natural selection. This is because the birds called Darwin's finished have variable size and shape making them important for the development of the theory.

Theory of natural selection and evolution which was developed by Darwin states that organisms changes over time as a result in variation in it's characteristics or behavioral traits to survive , adapt and reproduce in it's environment.

How does the concentration of salt in water affect the rate of osmosis?
Nata [24]
The concentration of salt in water affects the rate of osmosis because it will determine how much water should be transported or excreted or to be taken in. The cellular process is keen to the salt concentration of its system thus making sure to maintain balance between the salt concentration the right amount of water must also be in its area of release for any expected occurences.
Osmosis then is the movement of water particles from which has water and from which has not and to provide it with the sufficient H2O.

When similar biological traits evolve in unrelated species due to similar environmental constraints, ____________ is said to hav
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Convergent Evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution occurs when two unrelated species that have no common ancestor evolve independently in order to adapt to a similar environmental constraints to ensure survival.

An example of convergent evolution can be seen in birds, bats, flight/wing insects. They all do not share a common ancestor, but have evolved, separately, a similar structure for flight.

Another example can be seen in dolphins and sharks. These two different species share similar physical characteristics that make them adapt well in marine habitat that helps them to predate .

Grand Canyon is getting wider every day. What is making the canyon wider?
ira [324]

The Grand Canyon of Arizona is one of world’s largest and steepest canyons. It ranges up to 277 miles long and 18 miles wide. Its formation is carved due to the erosive power of the water’s current.  As heavy rains continue to occur, more rocks and stones erode and fall which adds length and width to the Grand Canyon.
