ii. Ribose (a five-carbon sugar)
iii. Three phosphate groups in a linear chain[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What is meant by a cell’s energy currency?” state=”close”]
The major energy currency of a cell is a nucleotide called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It is the main energy source for the majority of the cellular functions like a synthesis of macromolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins) movement, the transmission of nerve impulses active transport, exocytosis, and endocytosis, etc.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”Define Photosynthesis?” state=”close”]
The process of synthesis of glucose from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll, with oxygen as a by-product is called photosynthesis.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What is meant by pigments?” state=”close”]
Pigments are substances that absorb visible light. Different pigments absorb light of different wavelength (colors) are called pigments.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”Define Limiting Factor?” state=”close”]
Any environmental factor the absence of deficiency of which can decrease the rate of a metabolic reaction is called a limiting factor for that reaction.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What are the locations for the occurrence of light and dark reactions?” state=”close”]
Light reactions take place on the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. The dark reaction takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”How much the leaf surface is covered by stomata?” state=”close”]
Stomata cover only 1-2% of the leaf surface.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”Define Osmosis?” state=”close”]
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of the dilute solution to the region of concentrated solution through a selectively permeable membrane.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What are the raw materials for photosynthesis?” state=”close”]
CO2 and water are the raw materials for photosynthesis.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What are redox reactions?” state=”close”]
Oxidation-reduction reactions (which involve the exchange of electrons occur simultaneously) are also called redox reactions.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What is Clavin Cycle?” state=”close”]
Clavin cycle is also called dark reaction. Dark reaction is the second phase of photosynthesis. It does not require light energy. In this reaction, glucose is synthesized in the absence of sunlight but the energy required is obtained by NADPH and ATP formed during light reaction.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”What is Chlorophyll?” state=”close”]
Chlorophyll is a green pigment inside the chloroplasts of plant cells. It enables plants to capture solar radiations to convert them into chemical energy of glucose.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”Define Co-enzyme A?” state=”close”]

[toggle title=”Can electrons be an energy source?” state=”close”]
Electrons can be an energy source. It depends upon their location and arrangements in atoms.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”How energy is recycled in a cell?” state=”close”]
Cells constantly recycle ADP by recombining it with Pi to form ATP. The synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi requires the expenditure of 7.3 KCal of energy per mole. The energy is obtained from the oxidation of foodstuff.[/toggle]
[toggle title=”How carbon dioxide is taken into plants through leaves?” state=”close”]
The air that enters the leaf through tiny pores (stomata) reaches into the air spaces present around mesophyll cells. This air carries carbon dioxide, which gets absorbed in the thin layer of water surrounding mesophyll cells. From here, the carbon dioxide diffuses into mesophyll cells.[/toggle]

[toggle title=”Why chloroplast is more in palisade mesophyll than spongy mesophyll?” state=”close”]
The chloroplast is more in palisade mesophyll than spongy mesophyll because the palisade cells are on the upper surface of the leaf and receive light so they contain more chloroplast to be able to absorb more light.[/toggle]
