Biology Questions

Plants are producers, which means they make their own food. Chloroplasts are organelles found in eukaryotic and plant cells that conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant.

Plants use energy from sunlight to help make their food, but they need chloroplasts to do it.

Hence, in plants, chloroplasts are necessary for Photosynthesis.

Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic pathway that leads to the synthesis of glucose from pyruvate and other non-carbohydrate precursors, even in non-photosynthetic organisms.

It occurs in all microorganisms, fungi, plants and animals, and the reactions are essentially the same, leading to the synthesis of one glucose molecule from two pyruvate molecules. Therefore, it is in essence glycolysis in reverse, which instead goes from glucose to pyruvate, and shares seven enzymes with it.

Everyone of us have a blind spot which is a small portion within the visual field of every eye where the optic nerve and blood vessels leave the eyeball. Optic nerve is connected to brain ehich carries images of what we see.

All enzymes are proteins but all proteins are not enzymes since, enzymes are subset of proteins.

Protists are eukaryotic organisms that cannot be classified as a plant, animal, or fungus. They are mostly unicellular, but some, like algae, are multicellular.

Kelp, or 'seaweed,' is a large multicellular protist that provides food, shelter, and oxygen for numerous underwater ecosystems.
