Oxidative Phosphorylation is the metabolic process needed
to provide energy for the cell. It is the final stage in the process of
cellular respiration, where acetyl CoA produce energy precursors that leads to the
phosphorylation of ADP, producing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and in return
provide energy. Moreover, when the body lacks oxygen, fermentation happens.
During glycolysis, only two ATP molecules are produce and the pyruvate is
reduce to NADH forming lactate. Meanwhile, in alcoholic fermentation pyruvate
is converted to ethanol, releasing CO2. Lastly, the co-enzyme that is involved
in photosynthesis is NADP+ where extra phosphate group is attached.

Answer:
Choice C., High blood glucose levels can result from an overproduction of insulin
Explanation:
Blood sugar levels are regulated by two pancreatic hormones—insulin and glucagon. When blood sugar levels increase, insulin is released (beta cells of the pancreas), it binds to its receptors and consequently increase glucose uptake by cells, which effectively lowers blood glucose levels. On the other hand, when blood sugar levels decrease, glucagon is released (alpha cells of the pancreas), it binds to its cell receptors, and causes glucose to be released into circulation, thereby increasing blood glucose levels.
Answer:
Amino acid are the monomers of protein.
Many amino acids link together by peptide bonds, forming proteins.
