                  \n\"1st
                  \nElectron microscopic structure of the chloroplast Chlorophyll containing plastids is called Chloroplasts. They are present in the cells of all green plants and abundant in the leaf mesophyll cells. They are elliptical or oval in shape. Chloroplast is bounded by two membranes with the intermembrane space called peri plastidial space, containing peri plastidial fluid. It is made up of H20, mineral ions, proteins, etc. It is a lubricating fluid that avoids friction between the two membranes.<\/p>\n

                  The inner chamber is filled with a colorless proteinaceous fluid matrix called the stroma. Besides abundant proteins, stroma contains 70s ribosomes, circular DNA, and all the enzymes of the Calvin cycle. Embedded in the stroma, there are green-colored bodies called grana, which are interconnected by frets.<\/p>\n

                  Grana is the site of light reaction, each granum consists of a stack of lipoprotein membrane discs called Thylakoids. Each thylakoid contains several photosynthetic centers called Quantasomes. Each quantasome contains about 250 chlorophyll pigments and a few xanthophylls and carotenes.<\/p>\n

                  Only chlorophyll- a is capable of harvesting light energy into photosynthesis and hence it is called the primary photosynthetic pigment. All the other pigments, merely absorb light energy and pass it on to chlorophyll, and hence are called accessory photosynthetic pigments.<\/p>\n

                          \nDefinition: Proteins are the building block is of the living body, and make up the structure and functional component of the living system. They are polymers made up of monomers called amino acids, linked by peptide bonds.<\/p>\n

                          Protein structure:
                          \nThe protein structure is referred to as a three-dimensional structure or conformation, which determines the biological function. Four basic structural levels are assigned to proteins.<\/p>\n

                          They are primary structure, secondary structure, tertiary structure, and quaternary structure.
                          \n(a) Primary structure of protein: The primary structure of a protein refers to the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The amino acids are linked by polypeptide bonds only.<\/p>\n

                          (b) Secondary structure of protein: The folding of the polypeptide chain into a specific coiled three-dimensional structure like \u03b1 helix or \u03b2 sheet is called the secondary structure. The coiled configuration is produced by hydrogen bonding between carboxyl and amino groups of individual amino acids.<\/p>\n

                          (c) Tertiary structure of protein: The- helix of protein is further folded into specific loops and bends to produce specific three-dimensional configurations to carry out specialized functions.
                          \nThis is called the tertiary structure of the protein.<\/p>\n

                          The tertiary structure is stabilized by four kinds of bonds.<\/p>\n

                            \n
                          1. Hydrogen bonds.<\/li>\n
                          2. Hydrophobic bonds.<\/li>\n
                          3. Ionic or electrostatic bonds.<\/li>\n
                          4. Disulfide bonds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                            (d) Quaternary structure of protein: When a protein is made up of 2 or more polypeptide chains as in hemoglobin, it is known to possess a quaternary structure. The polypeptide chains are held together by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic or salt bonds, formed between amino acids.<\/p>\n

                            \nAnswer:
                            \nThe apoplast is the system of adjacent cell walls that is continuous throughout the plant, except at the Casparian strips of the endodermis in the rods. This movement exclusively through the intercellular spaces and cell walls. It does not involve crossing the cell membrane. This movement is dependent on the gradient water movement is through the mass flow of water occurs due to the adhesive cohesive properties of water.

                            \nAnswer:
                            \nBlackman’s Law of limiting Factors: The law states that \u201cWhen a process is conditioned to its rapidity by the number of separate factors the role of the process is limited by the pace of the slowest factor\u201d.<\/p>\n

                            Factors affecting photosynthesis: The following factors influence photosynthesis:
                            \n1. Light: Sunlight is used as a primary source of energy. Its three aspects affecting the process are:
                            \n(a) Light Intensity: Optimum light intensity for photosynthesis is 2000-2500 foot candles\/ Higher light intensity bleaches chlorophyll and is called solarisation.
                            \n(b) Light Quality: Photosynthetic rate is maximum in red light, next maximum in blue light, and least in green light.
                            \n(c) Duration: Photosynthetic rate is more efficient in intermittent light than in continuous light supply.<\/p>\n

                            2. CO2<\/sub>: Used as a raw material in photosynthesis. Its concentration in air is 0.03%. Its increase up to 0.5% increases the rate of the process but above 0.5% inhibits photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

                            3. O2<\/sub>: Liberated as a by-product in photosynthesis. Its increase above the normal 21% in air, decreases the rate of the process. It is called the Warburg effect.<\/p>\n

                            4. Temperature: It affects photosynthesis through its influence on the enzyme-controlled dark reaction. The optimum temperature is 18 – 40\u00b0C for photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

                            5. Water: Used as a raw material in photosynthesis. In the dehydrated state of cells, photosynthesis is inhibited.<\/p>\n
