... True/False Section 1. The wavelengths of light most effective in photosynthesis are those in the green part of the visible spectrum. 2. Bundle sheath cells are associated chiefly with C-3 photosynthesis and contain many chloroplasts. 3. CAM metabolism is chiefly associated with plants in cool, ...

... to give phosphate and oxaloacetate which is then reduced to malate in the mesophyll cell. then the malate goes to the bundle sheath cell, where it is "broken down" back to CO2. the CO2 can then be fixed by Rubisco with minimum photorespiration, because there is not ...

No. The myelin sheath doesn't let disperse for electric impulses. And the more myelin (the larger diameter of neuron) the faster electric impulses are conducted.

Hi there, We are currently studying about nerves/neurons. I heard that messages can travel along a neuron much quicker if we are warming up/exercising ... Does anyone know why this happens and how this is related to myelin sheaths? My only guess is that because the fatty layer of myelin becomes more...
