Photosynthesis Green plants absorb light energy using chlorophyll in their leaves. They use it to react carbon dioxide with water to make a sugar called glucose. The glucose is used in respiration‚ or converted into starch and stored. Oxygen is produced as a by-product. This process is called photosynthesis. Temperature‚ carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity are factors that can limit the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis summary Photosynthesis [photosynthesis: The chemical change

THE EFFECTS OF CIGARETTE SMOKE TO PHOTOSYNTHESIS Increased Carbon Dioxide Smoke of all kinds‚ including cigarette smoke‚ increases the amount of carbon dioxide where it is present (since smoke is itself produced via combustion). Plants use carbon dioxide to make sugars (during photosynthesis). Its increased abundance‚ therefore‚ makes it easier for the plant to obtain. Thus‚ smoking near a plant actually makes it easier for that plant to obtain much-needed carbon dioxide. Hampering Photosynthesis

1. Describe the mechanism by which green fluorescent protein (GFP) is able to emit fluorescent light and why ultraviolet light is required to visualise it. (5 marks) When GFP is hit with UV light‚ the chromophore is hit by a photon. This changes the chromophore from ground state (A) to A*‚ which is a highly excitable state. Due to such a highly excitable state not being able to remain so for very long‚ the A* state chromophore emits a proton‚ lowering its state to I*‚ the energetic I. This I* state

The green light presented in the novel by Scott Fitzgerald symbolizes Gatsby’s longing‚ hopes‚ and ambition of having Daisy and reclaiming her love. The “green light that burn[ed] all night at the end of [Daisy’s] dock” symbolized a his unattainable dream and the shattered‚ desolate fantasy at the end of the novel (99).
