Answer:
Glucose enters the mitochondria for production of ATP.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is the process through which solar energy is used to make glucose.
To generate chemical energy for cellular processes, glucose is broken down through cellular respiration in the mitochondria. This generates large amounts of ATP, which acts a source of energy to power reactions in the cell.
Excess glucose is stored as starch in plant cells
Answer:
There are several environmental factors that causes changes in the ecosystem and the population of that area such as invasive species, extreme weather, land use change, pollution and disease.
Lets take invasive species as environmental factor. Introduction of invasive species can cause a huge change in the ecosystem and affects the native population in that area. it increases the competition for food resources and decreases the survival rate of their preys.
For example: Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes). It is an invasive plant species that has very bad impact of native population as well as other population, like it reduces biological diversity, oxygen loss, decreased phytoplankton productivity, eliminate plants that animals use for nesting, and alter animal communities by blocking access to the water.
Thus invasive population can affect population by reducing biodiversity, water shortages, decreasing availability and quality of key natural resources, disturb the food chain and can cause natural calamities.
Invasive species affect the resources that native species are using and that decreases the carrying capacity of the native population as it disturbs the whole food chain.
A. Polysaccharide, this is because polysaccharides have cellulose which make the grass stand up.
<span>The correct answer is c. In terms of energy storage, glycogen is to animals what starch is to plants.</span> Glycogen is a form of energy storage in animals and it is the main storage of glucose in the body. <span>Starch also have a large number of glucose units and it is produced by plants.</span>
Answer:
B) Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle)
Explanation:
Glycolysis breaks glucose into two pyruvate molecules. Pyruvate is decarboxylated into acetyl CoA and the reaction occurs in the matrix of mitochondria. In the mitochondrial matrix, acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle and is broken down into CO2 and H2O. For one molecule of acetyl CoA, two molecules of CO2 are released as a by-product. Therefore, out of three carbon atoms of pyruvate, two are released as CO2 during Kreb's cycle.
