Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

Pentose phosphate pathway is the alternative pathway taking place in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes parallel to the glycolysis.

The pentose phosphate pathway forms the electron carriers called NADPH and the ribose-5 phosphate.

The NADPH is formed in large amounts through this pathway which contains a very high amount of energy. NADPH can donate its hydride ions, therefore, it can be involved in the reaction where it can donate energy in the form of hydrogen and electron.

The NADPH is therefore involved in the formation of reducing biosynthetic pathways like fatty acid synthesis, cholesterol synthesis, and bile acid synthesis.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

​which biological factor is not known to contribute to aggressive behavior?
denpristay [2]

The correct answer is option b, that is, circadian rhythms.  

A roughly 24-hour cycle in the physiological procedures of living beings, comprising animals, plants, fungi, and cyanobacteria is known as a circadian rhythm. In a strict sense, circadian rhythms are produced endogenously, however, they can be modulated by external cues like temperature and sunlight.  

The circadian rhythms can affect the release of the hormone, sleep-wake cycles, digestion and eating habits, the temperature of the body, and other essential functions of the body.

Scientist claims that Elysia chlorotica, a species of Sea slug, is capable of photosynthesis. which of the following observation
joja [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - B) Elysia Chlorotica grows when exposed to light in the absence of other food sources

Explanation:

If placing Elysia Chlorotica in presence of the food sources in the presence or absence of light it still grows as normal. However, if placing in the light in absence of the food sources it should not grow if it is not able to perform photosynthesis but it does which means there is a photosynthesis process also involve in the Elysia.

Photosynthesis is the process that involves the production of energy and nutrition in presence of light with water and atmospheric carbon dioxide.

1)magnification goes by 10x (read 10 times), 100x,1000x and some goes 10,000x 

2)Always focus first using lowest power possible first, switch to medium power (100x) after it's focused on low power(10x), on 100x, use the small knob to focus it more. DO NOT touch the bigger nob when in medium or high power. Switch to high power (100x) when it is focused on medium power, again focus again using the small knob on high power. 

3) So it doesn't gather dust and fog up the lense? that one should be self explanatory
