Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

They probably use aerobic respiration.

Explanation:

A travel distance of 11.500 kilometers in 9 days covered by flying surely requires a lot of energy.

  • If cells are fermenting, the ATP (energy) they generate only comes from glycolysis, which produces 2 ATP molecules.

  • If they are using aerobic respiration, glucose is completely oxidized to CO₂ through glycolysis and the Citric Acid Cycle, and the electrons enter the electron transport chain to finally reduce oxygen into water. In the complete process, up to 36 ATP molecules are produced.

In sum, aerobic respiration is much more efficient to generate energy than fermentation, so it's probably the main metabolism of the flight muscles in bar-tailed godwits.

Why is sickle cell anemia so prevalent in people of African descent?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

In heterozygotic individuals, the gene for sickle cell anemia is protective against malaria.

Explanation:

Through the same mechanism that the mutation associated with sickle cell anemia produces the disease (altered hemoglobin structure), having a single copy of the mutation (that is, being heterozygotic) provides protection against malaria. This is believed to be due to the altered structure causing difficulty for the malaria parasite when it attempts to enter red blood cells as part of its life cycle.

Today, there are medications to successfully treat malaria, but it still killed 627,000 people in 2020. This represents a significant evolutionary pressure for genes that would prevent serious malarial illnesses. As malaria  was and still is common in African regions, the result was a higher prevalence of sickle cell anemia in those of African descent.
