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.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Hamilton rules state that any trait that helps in benefiting others, B, is multiplied by genetic relatedness, R, which is greater than cot to self, C, it is favored by the process of natural selection.

As indicated by Hamilton's rule, the kin selection makes qualities increment in recurrence when the hereditary relatedness of a beneficiary to an actor multiplied by the advantage to the beneficiary is more noteworthy than the regenerative expense to the actor.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
