M. Euglena is trapped in a crowded area and must be able to move to a less populated area to live. The biological processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration allow it to do this. Through these two processes, energy is given to the kinetosome, which then allows M. Euglena's flagellum to move it to a less busy area. Euglena is aware that he must move to a less populated area to live. However, he waits patiently for the sun to gradually rise higher in the sky. He believes that if he waits for enough sunlight, the process of photosynthesis will occur in his chloroplasts to make glucose molecules. This is the start of the process of photosynthesis, which is the production of glucose in the chloroplasts of cells. In his situation, Mr. Euglena waits for the sun to rise higher in the sky because it needs enough sunlight to convert into energy in photosynthesis. The light reaction is the first step in photosynthesis that requires light. With sunlight, four pigments in its chloroplasts absorb sunlight. These four pigments are carotenes, xanthophylls I and II and chlorophyll b. These pigments will then convert sunlight into chemical energy, which is then transferred to chlorophyll a. Chlorophyll a then splits six water molecules (6 H2O) into twelve hydrogen atoms (12 H) and three oxygen molecules (3 O2). The coenzyme NADP then retains the product of twelve hydrogen atoms (12 H) in the form of 6 NADPH2 to pass on to the next process. The three oxygen molecules (3 O2) are then released into the air as a byproduct. The light reaction must occur a second time for the second phase of photosynthesis, the dark reaction, to occur. The same light reaction cycle then takes place. The result of two lig...... middle of paper ......or the dark reaction and the brake on aerobic respiration. This allows the production of numerous ATPs, allowing the kinetosomes to anchor the M. Euglena flagellum across the cell membrane. This anchor allows the flagellum to function, which will move Mr. Euglena to a less populated area to live. In short, Mr. Euglena will survive the difficult situation of a crowded area while waiting for the sun to rise higher in the sky. . In the meantime, its chloroplasts will absorb sunlight, allowing photosynthesis. When photosynthesis produces a glucose molecule, the glucose molecule is transferred to the cristae for the process of aerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration then produces ATP which will release energy to the kinetosome. This energy will allow the kinetosome to anchor the flagellum so that it can function to move M. Euglena to a less populated area to live..
