Why is an isotonic buffered extraction medium used to isolate the chloroplasts? 1.To gently lyse the chloroplasts, leaving the electron transport membranes intact, whilst allowing DCPIP access 2.To maintain a constant acidic pH and favourable hyper-osmotic conditions, to ensure that the chloroplasts remained intact and functional during extraction 3.To gently separate the chloroplasts from each other, leaving the electron transport membranes intact, whilst allowing DCPIP access 4.To maintain a constant physiological pH and favourable iso-osmotic conditions, to ensure that the chloroplasts remained intact and functional during extraction.
Many pelagic Bacteria can use light energy but arenot considered “phototrophs” in the same sense ascyanobacteria or purple bacteria. Explain.
You are culturing 2 algal species. Species A has a maximum photosynthetic output of 8 mg C mg-1 chl a h-1 and a half saturation constant of 20 µE m-2 s-1. Species B reaches a maximum photosynthetic output of 4 mg C mg-1 chl a h-1 and has half saturation constant of 18 µE m-2 s-1. Which species will be growing faster at a PAR light intensity of 80 µE m-2 s-1? Why?
Compost Microbe part 3 structures: The filaments growing into the agar are and function in enzymatic hyphae; digestion O vegetative hyphae; secretion of hydrolytic enzymes and absorbtion of nutrients O aerial hyphae; spore production O degredative hyphae; abosrptive nutrition
The main product of fossil fuel combustion is CO2 , and thisis the source of the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. Scientistshave proposed strategically situating containers of these algae near industrialplants or near highly congested city streets. Considering the process ofphotosynthesis, how does this arrangement make sense?
