A. Metabolism this is the process of taking food and making it energy
Anaerobic condition refers to an environmental condition where oxygen is absent. In case of Electron Transport System (ETS) and ATP production, oxygen acts as the final acceptor of electrons. As oxygen is a reactant in ETS and ATP production, unavailability of oxygen can cause no oxidation of the coenzymes or the carriers such as NAPH and FADH2 and no ATP will be produced. Thus, both Electron Transport System and ATP production will stop in the absence of oxygen.
<span>A. abiotic component</span>
An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.
The daughter cells produced from Meiosis are genetically different from each other due to the process of Crossing Over in the stage of Prophase I.
In Mitosis, there is no Crossing Over involved, since it is intended to help the body in growth and repair, not in reproduction.
Genetic Variation is important for reproduction so that not all offspring look exactly like each other or so that they do not look exactly like their parents.
