Photosynthesis is the process by which atmospheric carbon dioxide is assimilated and converted to glucose and oxygen is released. CO2... View Article
No, photosynthesis does not require oxygen, instead, oxygen is produced by photolysis of water and released in the atmosphere. Also... View Article
Yes, photosynthesis requires ATP. The ATP is produced during the light reaction of photosynthesis by chemiosmosis, which is utilised in... View Article
No, photosynthesis does not produce water, instead, water is split to give rise to oxygen and protons. Water splitting complex... View Article
Yes, plants produce oxygen during photosynthesis. Oxygen is produced by the photolysis of water. The water-splitting complex is associated with... View Article
The ATP is produced during the light reaction of photosynthesis by photophosphorylation. ATPs are produced towards the stromal side of... View Article
Yes, photosynthesis affects transpiration. When the rate of photosynthesis increases at a high light intensity, there occurs an increase in... View Article
The three main functions of cell division are reproduction, growth and gamete formation. Mitosis is required for asexual reproduction, growth,... View Article
Yes, mitosis replaces dead cells because mitosis doesn’t change the number of chromosomes in a cell after division. Mitosis results... View Article
Yes, mitosis produces diploid cells, given that the parent cell is also diploid. So it doesn’t change the number of... View Article
Yes, the rate of photosynthesis increases with an increase in temperature but within a specific range (10-20 ℃), any further... View Article
Yes, cytokinin promotes root growth. It is synthesised in the root apices and other parts of a plant such as... View Article
Yes, cytokinesis occurs in meiosis. Cytokinesis is the division of cytoplasm occurring in both types of cell division, viz., mitosis... View Article
Yes, chromatin contains RNA. It is an integral part of chromatin and plays a role in the structural organisation. Around... View Article
Yes, chromatin contains non-histone proteins. They play an important role in the compaction and organisation of chromosomes, DNA replication, cell... View Article
Yes, chemiosmosis occurs in photosynthesis and respiration. During photosynthesis, chemiosmosis occurs in the chloroplasts, whereas during respiration, chemiosmosis occurs in... View Article
No, C4 photosynthesis does not occur at night. The difference between C3 and C4 pathways is the initial step of... View Article
Yes, protists undergo mitosis. They undergo mitosis to give rise to two identical daughter cells. Here cell division is the... View Article
No, prokaryotes do not undergo mitosis or meiosis. Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission. It is similar to mitosis, which... View Article
