Discuss the benefits and drawbacks of biofuels in comparison to solar and wind energy. Compare and contrast the MAGE and Wanner methods. What is the advantage to a plant of closed stomata when water is in short supply? What are the disadvantages? a) Whic...
The 1990s was a period of the discovery and characterization of regulatory genes that control synthesis of the photosystem in response to alterations in oxygen tension and light intensity. Although several photosynthetic organisms are mentioned for comparison and contrast, the focus of this minireview ...
PEP Carboxylase has “no discriminatory ability”. So, you’ll find an almost equal proportion of 12CO2 and 13CO2 getting fixed in C4 plants. So, in comparison to C3 plants, the chances of getting 13CO2 fixed are more in C4 plants....
A comparison of these figures with the theoretical maximum value indicates the existence of substantial reserves that can be used in the future. For certain agricultural crops the effective utilization of light energy has been increased under special conditions to 5–6 percent and even higher (in ...
In contrast, homoiohydric, terrestrial, vascular plants maintain their water status within fairly tight limits. Poikilohydry is exhibited by some ferns, club mosses, and even several phanerogams, but the major groups are algae, cyanobacteria (e.g., cyanobacterial mats), fungi and, of course,...

The average clustering coefficient of both enzyme and compound nodes are lower in chloroplasts, suggesting an overall loose network structure in chloroplast. We also conducted an in-depth comparison of the densities of enzyme networks in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria by analyzing the cores using Pajek...
Comparison of the Subunit Compositions of the PSILHCI Supercomplex and the LHCI in the Green Alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii The PSI-LHCI supercomplex contained all of the nine Lhca polypeptides (Lhca1-9) that are detected in wild-type thylakoids. In contrast, the LHCI ... Y Takahashi,TA ...
1), despite key input parameters such as grain size and impurity content not being measured directly. Fig. 1: Comparison between modelled and measured17 downward spectral solar irradiance in glacier ice on Earth as an analogue for ice on Mars, since these types of measurements have not yet ...
Earth's moon is notably large in comparison to its parent. The only other one of the inner planets with a moon is Mars, which has two, but they are just tiny asteroid fragments. Earth's moon is so large that, even though its gravitational force is far weaker than that of the planet...
