Which molecules are reactants in cellular respiration? Cellular respiration uses oxygen as a reactant and photosynthesis does no

t.
Biology

valkas [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer

Hi,

The reactants in cellular respiration are oxygen and glucose

Explanation

The process of cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria. The reactants are oxygen and glucose and the main product is ATP energy. The waste products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water. In photosynthesis, the reactants are light energy, water, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll to produce oxygen, water and glucose.

Best wishes!

The sequence of subunits in a protein is most directly dependent on the
kumpel [21]

The sequence of sub units in a protein is most directly dependent on the DNA in the chromosomes in a cell

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Any life events that takes place in a cell depends upon the central dogma of life that is the DNA getting transcribed into RNA and the RNA getting translated into protein, therefore we can conclude that the sequences of amino acids are based on the sequences of DNA that are present inside the chromosomes that are packed in a nucleus of a  cell.

What specific key factor starts the breathing process in a newborn infant?
kvv77 [185]
Chemical factors: This is due to internal stimuli. Changes in the blood such as decrease in O2, increase in CO2 and decrease in PH cause impulse in the carotid artery which stimulates the respiratory centers in the medulla and cause breathing.

Mechanical factors: also called external stimuli. Compression of the fetal chest during delivery forces small amount of lung fluid out of the lungs. This increase in pressure in the chest draws air into the lungs.

Compare and contrast the mechanisms of getting material across the plasma membranes of cells. Tells me what the mechanisms are i
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Materials get transported from the cell by some mechanisms such as Active Transport, Passive Transport, Diffusion, etc.

Explanation:

Active Transport :

It is a process by which, materials are transported from the extracellular membrane to the intracellular membrane with the help of ATP. It has a few types :  

Primary Active Transport :  

This system is standing upon the sodium-potassium pump. It moves out   Na⁺ from the cell and allows the entry of K⁺ into the cell. In this process ATP is a source of energy. E.g, Sodium-potassium pump.

Secondary Active Transport :

It is mainly standing upon Primary Active Transport. In this process, the main key point is the concentration gradient. There is already a concentration gradient set up by the primary active transport. This system uses that up and moves other substances against their own gradient concentration. E.g, assuming, there is a high concentration of sodium outside the cell,  if a route such as a channel or a carrier protein is open then sodium ions will move into the cell.  In this transport system, some cotransporters are used who move in the sodium ion into the sodium gradient.  

Passive transport :

It is a process by which, substances cross the plasma membrane without acquiring any energy from the cell. Here, no energy is needed because the substances are moving from higher concentration to its lower concentration. E.g, cell membrane or plasma membrane works as a permeable or semipermeable membrane.  

Diffusion :

It is the movement of a substance across a membrane, due to the concentration gradient, without any help from other molecules. E.g, movement of the gaseous molecule from cell to cell.

Discribe how a sedementary rock such as sandstone is formed
lilavasa [31]
Sedimentary rocks are formedwhen sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension. This sediment is often formed when weathering and erosion break down a rockinto loose material in a source area.
