WHAT IF? Some nighttime partygoers wear glow-inthe-dark necklaces. The necklaces start glowing oncethey are “activated” by snapping the necklace in a waythat allows two chemicals to react and emit light in theform of chemiluminescence. Is the chemical reactionexergonic or endergonic? Explain your answer.

What about the phototransduction pathway in these mice is true?
A. Transducin will not activate phosphodiesterase.
B. Opsin will not bind cis-retinal.
C. Photochemistry will not take place.
D. The plasma membrane will become hyperpolarized.

- Can someone help me understand this. A student set up an experiment to show the effect of light color on photosynthesis in Elodea plants. She filled two test tubes with distilled water and placed a piece of Elodea in each of the tubes. She added a drop of phenol red, which turns red in a basic solution and yellow in an acidic solution. She blew in each tube before placing the volumeters on the top of the tube. Why did she blow into the tube? to add oxygen to the tube to add carbon dioxide to the tube to add carbohydrates to the tube to add sodium bicarbonate to the tubearrow_forward.

- The green color of plants is explained by the wavelengths of light that are reflected, transmitted, and absorbed by the chlorophylls in the thylakoids. Which of the following statements is true? Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit yellow and green wavelengths of light, and absorb red and violet-blue wavelengths of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit red and blue wavelengths of light, and absorb yellow and green wavelengths of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit red and blue wavelengths of light, and absorb white wavelength of light. Plants appear green because chlorophylls reflect and transmit white wavelength of light, and absorb red and violet-blue wavelengths of light.arrow_forward27arrow_forwardPlace numbers beside the statements below to indicate the order of events occurring in the light reactions.
