(a)
To predict: The way in which the noncyclic electron flow was affected in the hcef mutant plants as compared to normal Arabidopsis plants.
Introduction: A mutant of the Arabidopsis thaliana plant has been isolated by Livingston et al. This mutant plant, called the hcef plant because it has a higher flow of electrons in the cyclic process around the photosystem I.
(b)
To predict: The effect of mutation on the light-driven proton flux across the thylakoid membrane.
Introduction: A mutant of the Arabidopsis thaliana plant has been isolated by Livingston et al. This mutant plant, called the hcef plant because it has a higher flow of electrons in the cyclic process around the photosystem I.
(c)
To predict: The effect of the mutation on the activity of PSII.
Introduction: A mutant of the Arabidopsis thaliana plant has been isolated by Livingston et al. This mutant plant, called the hcef plant because it has a higher flow of electrons in the cyclic process around the photosystem I.
(d)
To predict: The enzyme which is defective in the mutant hcef plant that is causing a large increase in the level of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate in the stroma of the mutant plant.
Introduction: A mutant of the Arabidopsis thaliana plant has been isolated by Livingston et al. This mutant plant, called the hcef plant because it has a higher flow of electrons in the cyclic process around the photosystem I.
(e)
To predict: The way in which the starch synthesis in the stroma is affected in mutant hcef plants as compared to normal Arabidopsis plants.
Introduction: A mutant of the Arabidopsis thaliana plant has been isolated by Livingston et al. This mutant plant, called the hcef plant because it has a higher flow of electrons in the cyclic process around the photosystem I.

Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7. A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups could bond together. Once you are satisfied, staple or tape the amino acids in place and label the bond that you formed between the two R groups. - Polar covalent Bond - Red - Non polar Covalent boND- yellow - Ionic BonD - PINK Hydrogen Bonn - Purple Hydrophobic interaction-green O=C-N H I.
