(i) Describe a biological process by which carbon is removed from the atmosphere and converted to organic molecules (1 point for a correct description,
The cycle begins with the incorporation of CO2 into organic molecules, a process known as carbon fixation • The fixed carbon is reduced with electrons
B) produce organic molecules from inorganic molecules C) eat other organisms that use light energy to make food molecules D) include only the green plants
In the stroma, the Calvin cycle reactions use the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH to combine carbon dioxide from the air with organic molecules to form new
into organic molecules already present in the chloroplast This initial incorporation of carbon into organic compounds is known as carbon fixation
B) produce organic molecules from inorganic molecules C) eat other A) occurs when carbon and oxygen from CO2 are incorporated into an organic molecule
molecules) gets incorporated (or fixed) into the carbon skeletons of carbohydrate molecules that can then be used to form glucose or other organic molecules
dioxide and water are converted to organic compounds in the plant with the aid of light energy, liberating at the same time the gas oxygen, and therefore
and carbon dioxide into organic molecules using energy from the sun Cellular Do you think all possible pathways of carbon were included in this diagram?
energy in the plant's cells through photosynthesis The oxygen (O2) from the CO2 molecule was sent back into the atmosphere; the carbon atom (C) was
dissolves molecules of life, and allows Products can be added to fertilizers and pesticides to lower surface tension of the because the first organic molecule
chemical energy to be used in metabolism, and there is as able in organic compounds delivered by comets incorporated in primitive metabolic pathways
in two classes of organic systems: a) molecules playing roles in living Most of new methodologies developed in our group are incorporated into Newton-X
blocks to make the organic compounds necessary for life Organic compounds Organic compounds are molecules built around the element carbon (C)
organic molecules are seen in the warm gaz (~ 100 K) around nascent formation process, but they are likely destroyed, reformed, or incorporated into
which completely oxidized, or (+4), carbon is incorporated into the 6-carbon glucose 2 The possibility of loss of Cl1 by its entrance into organic molecules in
