Question
Chapter 19, Problem 6P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason forhuman beings to not produce energy by photosynthesis, however, this process is critical to our survival needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Photosynthesis is a process that harnesses the energy in sunlight to make sugar from water and carbon dioxide in the presence of a green pigment called chlorophyll.

Question:-
List the different molecules, an electrons is part of, as it moves from NADPH through the light-independent phase of photosynthesis and is synthesized into a substrate that can feed it into a NADH molecule as part of aerobic cellular respiration. Provide 2 different options for NADH production.
The compound Carbonyl cyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenyl hydrazone (FCCP) acts as an uncoupler of electrochemical gradients (in both mitochondria and chloroplasts) by shuttling protons across membranes. Predict the effect of a high dose of FCCP on the synthesis of ATP and NADPH in photosynthesis. Rationalize your answersAnswer separately with prediction and reason please thank you so much
