What are the peak absorbances of the chlorophyll according to your graph? Does this correlate with your predictions?

If the N and P content of some algae is as shown in the following table. The third column shows nutrient available in the water. Nutrient Nitrogen Phosphorus (a) (b) mg nutrient/g of algae Available, mg/L 0.62 80 6.9 0.15 What percent reduction in nitrogen is needed to control algal production to 1.0 mg/L? What percent reduction in phosphorus is needed to control algal production to 1.0 mg/L?

A microorganism is grown in a fermenter under steady-state conditions. The microorganism growth follows Monod kinetics and the following stoichiometric equation: C3H6O3 +a O2 +b NH3 → c biomass + d CO2 + e H₂O Given that the biomass yield is 0.415 grams of biomass per gram of substrate, determine the respiratory quotient.

What is the equation for photosynthesis showing the relationship between fluxes?

In a photosynthetic investigation, a student measured the following pH of the stroma and the inner thylakoid compartments of spinach leaf cells at the conclusion of the experiment.  Source of Fluid pH (mean) Standard Error of Mean (SEM) Stroma 8.2 0.75 Inner compartment of thylakoid 5.6 0.35 b. Construct an appropriately labeled graph to illustrate the sample means of the two locations to within 95% confidence (i.e. sample mean + 2 SEM).

If 120 calories are consumed with 5 prunes, how many calories are consumed with 15 prunes? show work with dimensional analaysis

Cell respiration and photosynthesis are distinct metabolic processes that take place in the mitochondrion and chloroplast, respectively.  While these two processes are separate, they share things in common.  When one looks at the overall equations for cell respiration and photosynthesis, one sees how they are near opposites in terms of the starting and ending materials.  In 300-400 words, describe this “near opposite” relationship between cell respiration and photosynthesis.  What are the starting and ending materials in each process, and what kind of energy transformation is taking place?

In the same oak leaf that absorbed 15,440 photons, how many CO2 molecules are fixed to produce the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate molecules that are used as building blocks for hexose sugars?

How can the physical properties of chlorophyll be used in measuring primary productivity in ecosystems? Hint: Can chlorophyll’s near infrared reflection be captured by special cameras?

One step of the cycle that incorporates CO2 into glyceraldehyde in plants is the production of two 3-phosphoglycerates. ΔG = -3.5 kJ/mol for thisreaction. Is this process endergonic or exergonic?
