Billy Bell How is ATP used in the light-independent reaction? ATP and NADPH are used to convert the six molecules of 3-PGA into six molecules of a chemical called glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P). This is a reduction reaction because it involves the gain of electrons by 3-PGA. Both of these molecules return to the proximal light-dependent interactions to … Read more
What does a prokaryotic cell do? Prokaryotes lack an organized nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic DNA is found in a central part of the cell called the nucleoid. The cell wall in prokaryotes acts as an extra layer of protection, helps maintain cell shape, and prevents dehydration. What is a prokaryotic cell and what … Read more
How many neutrons are in each atom? For all charge-free atoms, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The mass number, 40, is the sum of the protons and neutrons. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the number of protons from the mass number. Number of neutrons = 40−19 = … Read more
What can neutrinos be used for? It’s called a neutrino. Neutrinos have the potential to do amazing things like speed up global communication, detect the existence of nuclear weapons, and even confirm the existence of elusive dark matter. What is the purpose of neutrinos? Neutrinos play an important role in astrophysics because of their weak-matter … Read more
How do you find the main quantitative number of a subshell? We can assign a principal quantum number, n, and a particular subshell by combining the value of n with the name of the subgroup (which can be found using l). For example, 3p denotes the third major quantum number (n = 3) and the … Read more
