Cellular respiration is the process by which living organisms convert their chemical energy from nutrients into ATP. Cellular respiration is one of the major ways by which living organisms release chemical energy to drive chemical activities. Cellular respiration cause loss in dry weight. This is because, during cellular respiration there is release of energy from the living organism, carbon dioxide and oxygen are also exchanged. The energy that has to be spent during respiration is responsible for the loss in mass in living organisms.

<span>Cellular respiration involves the breaking down of organic fuels such as glucose. This process uses an electron transport chain, and the harvesting of energy from fats, amino acids, glucose and other organic molecules takes away from the mass of the organism. So as more energy is produced, will mass loss occurs as the process of conversion continues.</span>

Does nonpolar mean hydrophobic or hydrophilic

Lesechka [4]

no hydrophobic and hydrophilic refer to phospholipids in the cells membrane. A nonpolar molecule is a molecule which has no separation of charge, so no positive or negative poles are formed. In other words, the electrical charges of nonpolar molecules are evenly distributed across the molecule.

Which aquifer listed below would be the most effective in purifying polluted groundwater, and why?

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The aquifer which will be most effective in purifying polluted ground water is AN AQUIFER COMPOSED MAINLY OF SAND.
An aquifer refers to a zone of permeable rock strata which transmit ground water freely. An aquifer must be permeable and porous. Ground water can be extracted from an aquifer by using a water well.
