With the equation of cellular respiration C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂+ 6H₂O, gaseous exchange takes place, glucose reacts with oxygen forming Adenosine Triphosphate used by cells.

About 21% of oxygen and 0.4% of carbon dioxide of air is inhaled while the air we breathe out contains 16.4% of oxygen and 4.4% of carbon dioxide because cells use oxygen inhaled to release energy and carbon dioxide as byproduct.

<h3>How does Cellular Respiration work?</h3>

Cellular respiration is how organisms convert fuel into energy and nutrients by combining oxygen with food molecules, sending the chemical energy for life sustaining activities while expelling carbon dioxide and water.

We inhale 21% of oxygen and 0.4% of carbon dioxide and exhale 16.4% of oxygen and 4.4% of carbon dioxide as by product during the process of cellular respiration.

What would be the best negative control to use when testing for any organic compounds
ra1l [238]

Explanation:

A similar question was asked online, here is the answer it gave:

'“Negative control” is a treatment that by definition is expected not to have any effect (neither positive effect, nor negative effect). “Positive control” is treatment with a well-known chemical that is known to produce the expected effect with the assay that you are studying. Application of an antagonist is not a negative control in your case. “Negative control” is condition that should be treated with the same solutions or buffers as your “treatment” condition, with the only difference that instead of the chemical that you investigate you should add just the solvent that was used to dissolve you chemical in the respective final concentration that you have in the “experimental treatment” condition. For example if your chemical is dissolved in DMSO – than the correct negative control will be to add to the medium/buffer just DMSO in the same final concentration that you reach with your “treatment” condition. One of the reasons of using such negative control is to verify that the solvent is having no effect in your assay. Note that among all treatment conditions (“negative control”, “positive control”, “experimental treatment you are investigating”) the volumes and the composition of the treatments that you are doing should be uniform: always treat with the same volume of medium or buffer, always containing the same concentration of the used solvent (e.g., DMSO). The only difference should be the presence or absence of the defined compound-treatments (agonist, antagonist, the chemical for the experimental investigation etc.).'

My best advice is to use the textbook you have, or use examples of a negative control when testing organic compounds because you have to find something that you can assign, like a worm in a box of dirt, the worm could have enough food to survive, so that is your negative control, but when it comes to finding the best, that would have to rely on something within the parameters of being self sufficient like a plant getting its energy from photosynthesis, etc.

Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation? a. Disruptive selection b. Stabilizing selection c. Directional sel
OleMash [197]

Answer: A- Disruptive selection

Explanation: Disruptive selection increases genetic variation as the population begins to be more different when selection existing in nature chooses multiple phenotypes reaching the highest degree which each have particular benefits. However, they tend to make single-celled life form that has interposed characteristics to produce smaller offspring while allowing the organisms that have the highest degree of characteristics to produce more offspring.
