Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Conclusions about the photosynthesis on the basis of the given experiments is to be stated.
Concept introduction: Glucose is made in the process of photosynthesis which is used by the cells to obtain energy. The process includes absorption of light, electron transport to produce NADPH, generation of ATP followed by conversion of carbon dioxide to form carbohydrates.

If the plants are consuming 72 grams of water during photosynthesis, how many grams of oxygen are produced?
Assume a coal has a proximate analysis of C52H41S0.5N0.2O5. This coal is burned at a power plant to generate electricity. What are two types of NOx formation you would expect from using this coal as an energy source? For each ton (2,000 lbs) of this coal is combusted, what is the total mass potential for SO2 emission? Please provide your answer in SO2 pounds per ton of coal.
3) Carbon-14 is constantly being produced in the upper atmosphere, and the amount is in
equilibrium. As long as an organism is alive, it keeps its carbon isotopes in balance with the
atmosphere, but at soon as it dies, it stops taking up new 14C, and so the geologic clock starts.
You found a shell buried in sedimentary layers, which has 6% of its original 14C left.
Determine the age of the shell. Show your work.

- The age of wine can be determined by measuring the trace amount of radioactive tritium, 3H, present in a sample. Tritium is formed from hydrogen in water vapor in the upper atmosphere by cosmic bombardment, so all naturally ocurring water contains a small amount of this isotope. Once the water is in a bottle of wine, however, the formation of additional tritium from the water is negligible, so the tritium initially present gradually diminishes by a first-order radioactive decay with a half-life of 12.5 years. If a bottle of wine is found to have a tritium concentration that is 0.184 that of freshly bottled wine (i.e. [3H]t = 0.184 [3H]0), what is the age of the wine?arrow_forwardThe age of wine can be determined by measuring the trace amount of radioactive tritium, ³H, present in a sample.
