The correct answer would be that the mass of the shoot is reduced. This might be the consequence of predation (if there is an increase in predator population) or death (caused by decreases in food and other life resources) which reduce the population of the shoot more than its growing rate.
Biomass is the total mass of a specific organism in the area and it is a renewable source of energy (contains stored energy from the sun).
The most basic building block of all organisms are cells.
Cells are most of the time microscopic units composed by organelles and other things. The cells have many functions in life, such as the one of an egg, or building tissues for example.
There are two cell divisions and two basic types of cells.
→The two main divisions are eukaryotic (have a nucleus, that encloses DNA) and prokaryotic (DNA floats through the cytoplasm, since there is no nucleus).
→The two basic cell types are the animal and plant cells that difere in shape, functions, organelles to give some examples. Animal cells are found in all animals including humans, and plant cells are found in plants and trees.
Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
Answer:
D. oxygen is the final electron acceptor.
Explanation:
Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in aerobic cellular respiration. The whole pathway includes glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 formed during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle through electron transport chain during oxidative phosphorylation includes molecular oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor.
The proton motive force generated during the electron transfer from NADH and FADH2 to oxygen gas drives phosphorylation of a large number of ADPs into ATPs.
