What is a difference between the oxidation of coal when it is burned and the oxidation of glucose during cellular respiration?

Ans. (D). Energy is produced and stored during cellular respiration.

Oxidation of glucose during cellular respiration is better than burning of coal in the presence of oxygen. It is because burning coal generates heat, which is not generally useful and cannot be captured by cells as energy source.

On the other hand, cellular respiration involves complete oxidation of glucose, which provides so much energy. This energy is stored by the cell for its cellular activities.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Does health insurance system in the US affect the work of health scientists? Why or why not?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

pretty sure that health scientists, assuming they understand pharmaceutical actions and reactions, get paid either way & possibly get cheaper h insurance for their expertise.

Explanation:

No, does not affect their work because they get paid to test new drugs on lab rats, chimps, dogs, etc. to see if there is an effect on subjects they give a medical condition to. As unfair as it seems, once lab subjects are tested for years, and they witness if they're theories are justified or not; then they determine a trial run on human test subjects. this process can take up 2 10 years or longer.

Read Changes on Earth and Changes in Life. Explain how changes in Earth's systems affect the growth of life on Earth.
wolverine [178]

Answer: The presence of small amounts of heat-trapping greenhouse gases in the atmosphere warms Earth's surface, resulting in a planet that sustains liquid water and life. Changes in climate conditions can affect the health and function of ecosystems and the survival of entire species. Changes in Earth's system affects the growth of life on Earth. ... Life on Earth includes all the living things such as plants animals humans microbes etc. All take part in different cycles such as carbon cycle and nitrogen cycle and can influence global climate by changing chemical composition of atmosphere.

Life Cycle


Mealworms that birds, reptiles, and other animals love aren’t really worms. They are the larvae of darkling beetles. There are over 20,000 different types of darkling beetles and mealworms come from the species Tenebrio molitor.

A darkling beetle experiences complete metamorphosis which means that it has four distinct stages of life. The four stages are egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The amount of time a darkling beetle spends in each stage can vary greatly due to environmental factors like temperature, humidity, food, and water.

Egg
The first stage of life is spent as an egg. The white bean-shaped egg is tiny and about the size of a speck of dust. The egg is sticky and is quickly concealed by dirt, dust, and substrate. It will take around one to four weeks for an egg to hatch and the larva to emerge.

Larva
The second stage of life lasts about eight to ten weeks and is spent as a brown larva. This is the stage where the insect is a mealworm. When first hatched, it is quite small but will grow to one to one and a half inches long.

Since it has a hard exoskeleton, the worm will need to molt and shed its hard outer shell in order to grow. Molts will occur ten to twenty times during this stage of life. A recently molted worm will be soft and white, but the exoskeleton will quickly harden.

A mealworm spends its time eating and growing in order to save up energy for the next transformation.

Pupa
During a mealworm’s last molt it will turn into a white alien-like pupa. It has no mouth or anus so does not eat. It does have leg and wing buds, but they do not function. The pupa is quite helpless and the only movement it can do is wiggle. This stage of life will last one to three weeks as the pupa transforms its organs and body into an adult.

Adult
The final stage of the insect’s life is as the darkling beetle and lasts one to three months. The beetle will be white with a soft exoskeleton. As the outer shell hardens, it will turn brown and then black. The beetle does have hard wings, but it is unable to fly.

After about one to two weeks of adult life, beetles will begin to mate and reproduce. A few days after mating, female beetles will burrow into soil or substrate and lay eggs. Darkling beetles are prolific breeders and females can lay hundreds of eggs during their adult lives.
