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.

dsp73

Answer:

C. Bases

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid, commonly known as DNA, is the a type of nucleic acid that serves as the genetic material in living organisms. DNA holds information or instructions needed for the synthesis of useful products like proteins that is responsible for growth, reproduction, and general survival of organisms. Hence, it is referred to as the "BLUEPRINT OF LIFE".

However, in the structure the of the DNA molecule, it contains certain monomeric building blocks called NUCLEOTIDES. These nucleotide bases are of four types namely: Adenine, Thymine, Guanine and Cytosine. It is upon these order of nucleotide bases that instructions, or 'code', in our DNA is dependent upon.

Bad White [126]

<u>Answer:</u>

"G-Factor" is associated with a theory of intelligence proposing a singular underlying aptitude or intellectual competence of intelligence.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An English psychologist Charles Edward Spearman was highlighted for his work in statistics as a pioneer of factor analysis. He speculated that humans had "G-Factor" i.e general intelligence (established in 1904 by Charles Spearman) from very early in the measurement of intelligence in history.

G-factor is a singular underlying aptitude or intellectual ability in many fields which include verbal, reasoning and spatial abilities. The general intelligence tests the level of expertise in applying logic to solve work-related problems by measuring the basic cognitive abilities regarding specific skills like memorization, arithmetic and common global knowledge.
