1: Explain why cellular respiration releases energy as an overall chemical reaction.

Biology
1 answer:
Brums [2.3K]2 years ago
4 0

Cellular respiration is the metabolic reaction inside the cell to convert chemical energy into ATP. Biomass is the total mass of organisms at a trophic level.

<h3>What is exothermic reaction?</h3>

The type of reaction in which releases energy after its completion.

  • Cellular respiration releases energy because it is an exothermic process in which energy is released as a by-product of the reaction.

  • Organisms are larger in size at higher trophic levels, but their smaller numbers result in less biomass.

Thus, being exothermic in nature, cellular respiration releases energy and because of less numbers, there is less biomass at high trophic levels.

How does using killed or weakened bacteria in an immunization help the body prevent infections
snow_lady [41]
<span>Basically, the body needs to know what it is defending against. Your body can still (usually) fight off infection, even without an immunization, but it takes longer. Basically, your body creates cells with a receptor for a specific disease. When this cell finds the disease it is programmed for, it will send out signals to the "killer" cells to come and kill it. If your body doesn't have the "seeker" cells, it can't fight off the infection until it does. The opposite end are autoimmune diseases, where your immune system starts attacking itself.

The sole of a gecko's foot is covered with millions and millions of small, dry "hairs" that make direct contact with surfaces, a
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: Van der Waals forces

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces that depend on the distance between two particles. They are caused by correlations in the change in polarization between two nearby particles. To put it in other words, when a particle changes its polarization (becomes more positive on one end and more negative on the other), so does the adjacent particle, and the next one, and so on. This causes these particles to stick together weakly.

The tiny "hairs" increase the surface area of the gecko's feet in contact with the wall, which makes the bond stronger and allows it to support all of its weight.

Because experiments have shown that geckos stick well to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, we can assume there aren't any hydrogen bonds present.

Ionic bonds can't be present either because geckos wouldn't stick to electrically neutral surfaces, as these bonds require charged molecules.

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate, ATP hydrolyzed to ADP and Phosphate and the Myos
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate

Explanation:

Muscle contraction results from myosin heads adhering to actin and attracting it inwards. It uses ATP. Myosin adhers to actin at a binding site of its globular actin protein and adheres at another binding site for ATP (hydrolyzed ATP to ADP, Pi  and energy)

ATP binding prompts myosin to detach from actin, ATP is changed to ADP and inorganic phosphate, Pi by ATPase. The energy formed at this process orientates myosin head to a “cocked” direction.

The myosin head goes in the direction of the M line, holding the actin with it in the process causing the filaments to orientate nearly 10 nm in the direction of the M line--- power stroke (force is produced), the sarcomere reduces in length and the muscle contracts.

Note: The power stroke is seen when ADP and phosphate disattaches itself from the myosin head.

At the terminal point of the power stroke, the myosin head as low-energy, followed by ADP release.

The attached image shows the cross-bridge muscle contraction cycle, which is activated  by Ca2+ sticking to the actin active site. And how actin moves in relation to myosin.
