When an organism breaks down organic molecules, some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat. this

happens because when an organism breaks down organic molecules, some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat. this happens because every energy transfer or transformation increases entropy. the enzymes in photosynthesis are inefficient. the enzymes in cellular respiration are inefficient. chemical energy can only be converted to heat energy.\?

<span>The right answer is: *some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat.

Breaking down an organic molecule into smaller ones is part metabolism of all the living organisms. It is called catabolism.

Catabolism is the set of reactions of molecular degradation of the organism considered. It is the opposite of anabolism, all synthesis reactions. Catabolism and anabolism are the two components of metabolism.Catabolism reactions are oxidations (or dehydrogenations) and they are thermodynamically favorable, that is they are exergonic (yielding chemical energy, producing energy). A part of this energy is used for biological activities, like moving, building or binding molecules together. The other part is released as heat. (You can take an example in the real life like running, the energy lets you moving and produces by the way heat)</span>

Which statement directly describes the cells produced by meiosis
kogti [31]

Answer:

The statement '<em>the genetic material of the original cell is divided among the new cells</em>' describes how cells are produced in meiosis process.

<u>Explanation: </u>

<em>In meiosis a single cell is divided into twice to form four cells and it contains the original half amount of 'genetic information'.</em> In meiosis, the two cells are called daughter cells are produced, and each identical cells to the parent cell meiosis are produced four haploid cells and mitosis are produced two diploid cells.

<em>The meiosis cell division is to reduces the number of 'chromosomes' in the parent cell by its half portion and also they produce four gamete cells.</em> In this process they required to produce 'eggs and sperm' cells for the sexual reproduction .It is the main aim to make a daughter cells with same half so many 'chromosomes' as the starting cell.
