Question
Chapter 19, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The advantage of having an extensive set of thylakoid membranes in the chloroplasts should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The chloroplast consists of thylakoids which comprise of sac-like membranous structures (cisternae) whichcombinesto form stacks, known as grana. The granaare interconnected by Stromal lamella. The thylakoid is known o present inArabidopsis thaliana chloroplast.

Etiology? What does that mean? What does the fact that rotenone appears to increase the susceptibility to Parkinson disease indicate about the etiology of Parkinson disease?
Working at cross-purposes? Gluconeogenesis takes place during intense exercise, which seems counterintuitive. Why would an organism synthesize glucose and at the same time use glucose to generate energy?
