Answer: (c) It generates ATP, which cells can use to do work.

(d) It generates chemical gradients, which have potential energy.

Explanation:

The overall process of Cellular respiration is the aerobic break down of organic compounds (food) with the release of CO2, water and energy in form of ATP which drives most cellular work.

Organic compound + oxygen --------> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP + heat)

In cellular respiration during the break down of food in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, chemical energy (NADH and FADH) are extracted from each cellular process and transported to the electron transport chain built in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The chemical energy harvested from food is transformed into a proton-motive force, a gradient of H+ across the membrane. When this H+ election fall from their gradient via ATP synthase, Chemiosmosis couples this proton motive force to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP.

Ipatiy [6.2K]
The answer to this question would be: frequency

The higher intensity of the stimulus, the higher frequency of the action potential will be sent. The nerve can't send a higher action potential, so it firing at higher at higher intensity instead. So when you felt an intense pain, that means the pain receptor is firing more stimulus per second compared to low or mild pain.

Positive ways that humans can impact the environment
NeX [460]
Oh boy, there's many, many, many, many...
(many x100)
many ways!

One way is to take shorter showers and conserve water wherever you go, at home, at a restaurant, hotel, etc.

Another way is to not litter on the streets.

Or, spread the word and tell everyone to conserve water, not litter, or just anything to help the environment!
