fifty amino acid units
Each protein molecule is made of at least ______________.
-iron -sulfur -phosphorus -zinc -nitrogen
Elements in protein
proteins
Enzymes are...
-solar energy -storage of energy -release of O2 -ATP
List the associations of the "light phase" of photosynthesis
-CO2 intake -release of energy -release of water -forms carbohydrates
List the associations of the dark phase of photosynthesis
ribosomes in plants and animals
Proteins are made by...
both plant and animal cells
Ribosomes are found in...
produce a carbohydrate from CO2
The chemical energy stored in ATP during photosynthesis is released during the dark phase to:
Carbon dioxide
_______ levels above normal will increase plant growth if other factors are adequate.
protein
a food made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen
carbon dioxide fixation (dark reaction)
carbon as an atmospheric gas is locked into a food molecule (+ where does this take place?)
Van Niel
claimed that oxygen produced by photosynthesis comes from the splitting of the water molecule
oxygen
essential to aerobic respiration
green house
may be used to control temperature and CO2
fat
provides energy storage and structure for life
amino acids
