Why, then, do seedlings that germinate in a fully darkened room grow taller than seedlings of the same species that germinate in full sun?arrow_forwardPlants have evolved by developing mechanisms that promote entry of CO, into the Calvin Cycle (CC) to limit photorespiration when environmental conditions tend to favor the latter. This is because photorespiration 1) is energetically inefficient (consuming more ATP than the CC alone) and 2) it does not produce any sugars that can be "fed" into cellular respiration to produce lots more ATP. A) Under what environmental conditions does photorespiration "outcompete" that of the CC? Specifically, what mechanism is responsible for committing the cell to photorespiration and what type of plant does not have any "safeguards" to ensure that the CC is performed rather than photorespiration? B) Describe the mechanisms employed by two types of plants to minimize photorespiration and ensure that the CC is carried out even when environmental conditions are not in their favor. Be sure to identify 1) the type of plant, 2) its natural environment and how it affects the plant's ability to perform the CC,…arrow_forward
- You continuously monitor the photosynthetic oxygen production from the leaf of a plant illuminated by white light.

A) electron carriers of the photosystem B) electron transport chain C) antenna complex of the photosystem D) reaction center of the photosystemarrow_forwardPhotosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts packed within the mesophyll cells. Summer leaves are green because they contain about 50 times more chlorophyll than carotenoids. But during the fall, carotenoids have their season of glory because chlorophyll breaks down first, revealing the striking orange and yellow colors of carotenoids, which were there all along. The changes that leaves undergo before they fall off allow the plant to reclaim nutrients from the leaves for storage and use the following spring. How do these nutrients leave the leaf ?arrow_forward
