which of following molecules get recycled during photosynthesis? a) NADPH and ATP b) CO2 and NADPH c) ATP and glucose d) water and glucose

OpenStudy (aaronq):

well photosynthesis uses sunlight to split H2O and pass on an electron pair to plastoquinone (photosynthesis II) and to NADP+ -> NADPH (photosynthesis I). Also phosphorylation of ADP to ATP.. idk what they mean by recycling.. it would be H2O and CO2 that they "recycle" if anything.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was my guess and i have no idea either about the recycling

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i would go with B, because they do recycle CO2.. and NADPH is just a cofactor so it does kind of just go back and forth, so it's not a true product

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in active transport does it matter more on the size of a molecule or its concetration?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

concentration; although big molecules can't get across membranes without active transporters...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well OK. the question is a chart and one answer has that the molecule is large but another molecule is a higher concentration inside the substance

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i would go with concentration

OpenStudy (aaronq):

active transport is needed if concentration is higher in the place it wants to go than where it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright thanks. you were right about all but the one posted here:)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

woo wel bio is my major

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wow. glad youre answering my questions then:) thanks again

OpenStudy (aaronq):

no prob! good luck with your studies

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks you too!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would go with ADP/ATP and NADP+/NADPH because they stay in the system. The question is vague though
