Yes. In the beginning, glycolysis requires 2 ATP molecules.
One ATP allows for the phosphorylation of the glucose molecule to fructose-6-phosphate and another phosphorylation to fructose-1,
6-biphosphate. The fructose-1, 6- bisphosphate
is then cleaved into two glyceraldehyde-3-phosphates that then enter the energy
generating part of the glycolysis biochemical reaction.
An organism adapting to its environment leads it to be more ‘equipped’ for survival.
Competition is when other species fight for the same resources that another species needs. Also, it would produce offspring with these adaptations.
An example (to help you better understand);
A blue jay has great eyesight, strong wings, and sharp beak. (Better adapted organism) Another blue jay has great eyesight, weak wings, and dull beak. (The competitor/unadapted)
Both birds find the same food source and are now competing for it. The first bird has sharp beams, which is better for breaking, and ‘chomping’ the seeds/food. The second bird would struggle to consume its food (seed) unless it’s worms.
So which one is better adapted? The first blue jay.
And i hope this helped show how competition can be reduced.
This is false. Organisms may play several important roles in an ecosystem. Consider for example and ocean shore environment occupied by a particular species of crab. The crabs are scavengers and eat any organic matter they encounter. They therefore play an important role in the cycling of nutrients in the ecosystem. The crabs are however also an important source of food for a range of other species occupying the same habitat, including octopi, certain fishes and sea otters. Therefore, the crabs are an important part of the food web in the ecosystem. Many species similarly occupy multiple important roles in an ecosystem.
Molecules brought in and used in the calvin cycle - Carbon dioxide , Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)
Molecules produced during the calvin cycle that leave the cycle - a few of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), NADP+
Molecules used and regenerated within the calvin cycle - most of the Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) , NADPH
<u>Explanation:</u>
Calvin cycle is the light independent reaction that takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast. Calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH produced during the light reaction. Calvin cycle occurs in 3 steps, they are:
1. Carbon fixation - combines with Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to form 2 molecules of 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA).
2. Reduction - ATP and NADPH is used to convert 3-PGA into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P).
3. Regeneration - some G3P molecule form glucose while other regenerates to form RuBP acceptor.
The correct answer is option D
Both are made up of the same nucleotide, but in a different sequence
DNA is made up of same set of nucleotide only the sequence is different which generates different set of amino acids forming the proteins of different types.Proteins are the building blocks of DNA which are responsible for different characteristics of an individual.
