Hi there!

This process is known as cellular respiration. It is essential for all living to survive because it allows aerobic organisms to convert food into energy - without cellular respiration, we would not be able to produce energy, making it impossible to perform bodily functions that are important for life. 

The word equation for cellular respiration is:
Glucose (energy) + Oxygen + Water ⇒ Carbon Dioxide + Water 

The balanced chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C₆H₁₂O₆+6O₂+6H₂O⇒6CO₂+12H₂O

Hope this helps!

In a population of plants, the allele for long stems (S) is completely dominant over the allele for short stems (s). If 35% of t
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be 48 percent.

It can be solved by using the Hardy-Weinberg equation.

p² +  2pq+ q²  = 1

p + q = 1

where, p² represents homozygous dominant's frequency that is, SS in this case,

q² represents homozygous recessive's frequency that is, ss in this case,

2pq represents heterozygous dominant's frequency that is, Ss in this case.

p represents dominant allele's frequency and q represents the recessive allele's frequency.

Now, the percentage of homozygous recessive or short stems is 35%. Therefore, the frequency of homozygous recessive would be 0.35.

Thus, the value of q² = 0.35

So, q = \sqrt{0.35} = 0.59 which is approximately equals to 0.6.

As p + q = 1 so, q = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

The frequency of heterozygous (Ss) = 2pq = 2(0.6)(0.4) = 0.48

Hence, the frequency of heterozygous would be 48 percent.

Which best defferentiates between chemical digestion mechanical digestion
Nimfa-mama [501]

Mechanical digestion is the breaking down of food into smaller pieces physically. Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth as the food is chewed.

but in the case of chemical digestion, it breaks the food into simpler nutrients that can be used by the cells. Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva.
