If green plant cells are incubated in the presence of CO2 molecules containing radioactive carbon atoms, the fate of the carbon atoms can be followed. In an experiment, radioactive CO2 was given for 1 minute to plant cells, and then the cells were examined after 1, 5, 10, 20, and 30 minutes. The following molecules were labeled with radioactive carbon at some point(s): glucose, glyceralde-hyde 3-phosphate, glycine (an amino acid), 3-phospho-glycerate, ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, and sucrose. Required:
List these molecules in the order in which they first become labeled.

Explanation:

The glycine, among other amino acids, helps to improve chlorophyll production and promotes the process of photosynthesis.  

Calvin cycle

During the carbon fixation phase, a CO² molecule combinate with a ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate to form 6-carbonated molecules, which will divide into two 3-phosphoglycerate molecules.  

During the reduction phase, NADPH donates its electrons to reduce 3-phosphoglycerate molecules, and turn them into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.

During the regeneration phase, a glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecule leaves the cycle and goes to the cytosol to form glucose. This step can be done when three CO² enter the cycle and produce six glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules. One of them leaves the cycle to form glucose, while the other five are recycled.

Cytosol:

Once in the cytosol, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules are used to form glucose and fructose. These two molecules are the monosaccharides that form the sucrose.

Once sucrose is formed, it is transported from the photosynthetic tissues to different parts of the plant by the phloem.  

the potatoes have high sugar concentrations and although these potatoes were different we could seethe effects that their sugar concentrations had in different environments. for example, the potatoes in sample a, were placed in pure water. this created a hypertonic environment and caused the potatoes to draw in water from its surroundings. we saw the opposite happen with the potatoes in sample b when placed in the sodium chloride solution. the potatoes in this case were in a hypotonic solution and therefore lost water to their surroundings.

the circled areas are referred to   as sunspots.   the sunspots are cooler than the   surrounding area.

sunspots are temporary phenomena on the photosphere of the sun that appear visibly as dark spots compared to surrounding regions. they correspond to concentrations of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection and result in reduced surface temperature compared to the surrounding photosphere.
