Answer:

d. photosynthesis. e. photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is a biological process that reduces the efficiency of photosynthesis in some plants during hot summer periods and consumes oxygen (O2) and produces carbon dioxide (CO2) through the degradation of intermediate compounds in the Calvin cycle.

Many of these plants, including major crops such as soybeans, wheat and potatoes, do not yield as many carbohydrates from photosynthesis as expected, especially in very hot summer periods.  This is a consequence of the intermittent gas exchange between the plant's need for CO2 and its need to prevent water loss.

In these plants, during respiration and photorespiration processes, carbon dioxide is split to form oxygen gas and some carbon compounds.

Compare and contrast the two types of rainforests. Be sure to include information for both biotic and abiotic factors.
kolbaska11 [484]
The ecosystem of the forest is formed by the interaction between the abiotic and biotic factors. Abiotic factors are the non-living factors: water, temperature,light,cloud cover, and soil. Biotic factors oh the other hand are the living organisms. Tropical rain forests<span> are hot, moist forests found near Earth's equator.</span>
Temperate rain forests are cool and dry.
Abiotic factors in temperate rain forest:
1. Temperature:The climate in the temperate rain forests is mild.
2. Water: moist and lush.
3. Light: many clouds block the sunlight.
4. Soil: nutrition rich.
Biotic factors:<span>beavers, raccoons , cougars and black bears. </span>

Abiotic factors in tropical rain forest:
1. Temperature: hot, near the Earth's equator
2. Water:60 to 160 inches of precipitation

Biotic factors: the greatest biodiversity in the world<span>,
 rubber and bamboo trees, sloths, anteaters, poison dart frogs, </span>

In mitochondria, an electron transport chain pumps protons from the matrix into the intermembrane space, whereas in chloroplasts
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Thylakoid space to the stroma

Explanation:

Electron transport chain occurs in both the mitochondria and the chloroplast which is involved in the process of ATP formation in the cell. The enzyme which catalyzes the reaction of the ATP formation is ATP synthase. The ATP synthase is composed of two subunits the CF₀ and CF₁.

The CF₁ is involved in the conversion of ADP to ATP due to the rotation of the rotor in the CF₁ unit which derives its energy from the flow of protons.

In chloroplast during the electron transport chain, the proton gets accumulated in the thylakoid lumen. These accumulated protons flow back from the thylakoid lumen towards the stroma of the chloroplast through CF₀  subunit of ATP synthase.  

Thus, the selected option is correct.
