Fully explain how cellular respiration is a chemical process whereby the bonds of food molecules and oxygen molecules are broken
Marianna [84]
Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.


As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

How are the products represented in the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
Liula [17]
The correct option is D.
During the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water react together in the presence of sunlight energy to form glucose and oxygen. Glucose and oxygen are the product of photosynthesis. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6 and that of oxygen is O2.

Which pair shows the chromosome numbers in human cells both before and after meiosis?
VladimirAG [237]
Each chromosome has 46 in mitosis whereas meiosis has 23 pairs from each gametes (egg cells and sperm) from the parents which are called daughter cells so the answer is 23 and 23 one from the mother and the other from the father

Explain how you determined the genotype of Maria and Juanita, even though you did not text their D a
elixir [45]

The answer is a pedigree chart.

<span>Pedigree charts are used to explain the occurrence of particular genes from one generation to the next. It gives enough information about family disease history. They are used in families to find out the probability of inheriting some disease. So, if Maria and Juanita are cousins and the genotypes of other members of their family are known, the pedigree chart could predict their genotypes. Still, it is not as precisely as DNA test.</span>
