Effects of some Inhibitors on the Rates of Photosynthesis and Respiration by Chlorella‚ knew that the rates of photosynthesis and respiration of many plants are affected by an adding chemicals. (Yaun and Daniels‚ 2000) The authors in this experiment would like to know in which ways different inhibitors affect photosynthesis and respiration distinctly. Objectives How certain inhibitors affect photosynthesis How certain inhibitors affect respiration Hypothesis The hypothesis of this study

Environmental Impacts on Ecosystems Introduction An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants‚ animals and microbes) in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air‚ water and mineral soil)‚ interacting as a system. These biotic and abiotic components are regarded as linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows. Ecosystems are controlled both by external and internal factors. Once outside factors affect these systems

Question 2 a.) Rubisco is a key component in photosynthesis. It is an enzyme involved in the fixation of atmospheric carbon dioxide. b.) Due to global warming‚ the increased temperature can influence Rubisco which can catalyses oxygenation over carboxylation. During carboxylation CO2 is fixed and raised temperature enhancing oxygenation. c.) Level of PGA depends on Rubisco with who is going to bind. Rubisco is an enzyme that reacts with CO2 and O2. The reaction with O2 competes with carboxylation

Photosynthesis (pron.: /foʊtoʊˈsɪnθəsɪs/; from the Greek φώτο- [photo-]‚ "light‚" and σύνθεσις [synthesis]‚ "putting together"‚ "composition") is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert the light energy captured from the sun into chemical energy that can be used to fuel the organism’s activities. Photosynthesis occurs in plants‚ algae‚ and many species of bacteria‚ but not in archaea. Photosynthetic organisms are called photoautotrophs‚ since they can create their own food. In plants

oD 4.1 Respiration Why organisms undergo respiration What is respiration and why do we need it? Respiration is the process whereby energy is released from food molecules (most usually glucose). It takes place inside living cells‚ both eukaryotic and prokaryotic. The process takes place inside the cytoplasm and the mitochondria. Energy is used to synthesise adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ which acts as a short-term energy store in cells. All living organisms need energy to drive their

Aquatic ecosystem An estuary mouth and coastal waters‚ part of an aquatic ecosystem. An aquatic ecosystem is an ecosystem located in a body of water. Communities of organisms that are dependent on each other and on their environment live in aquatic ecosystems. The two main types of aquatic ecosystems are marine ecosystems and freshwater ecosystems. What is an aquatic ecosystem? Aquatic systems are those that contain plants and animals that predominantly depend on a significant amount of water

3. Explain how the products of photosynthesis are transported‚ partitioned and allocated during plant growth and reproduction. Photosynthesis has been the focus of much attention than any other physiological process in flora physiology. Photosynthesis is a complex plant metabolic process‚ similar to respiration and fermentation‚ in which a plant can synthesize organic matter using light and chlorophyll. According to Kirk 1994: Photosynthesis is a complex physic-chemical process that is the central
