The answer is ‘panthers will become extinct due to the lack of genetic diversity’. The population will enter what is referred to an extinction vortex. This is when environmental, demographic and genetic factors interact and reinforce each other in a downward spiral of a species. The lack of genetic diversity in the population causes inbreeding and lack of diversity on which natural selection can act upon for the population to adapt.

oee [108]


Food molecules contain chemical energy which is released when its chemical bonds are broken.

Food undergoes  digestion in the digestive system and is broken down into its monomer units. Carbohydrates, which are the principal source of energy, are broken down into glucose. Glucose is the monomer unit of carbohydrates.

Glucose then is taken up by cells and is used in cellular respiration, which involves three main stages namely glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, through which a glucose molecule is processed to form at least 36 molecules of ATP.

ATP is the form of energy that cells use.

Explanation:

In general, photosynthesis in cyanobacteria uses water as an electron donor and produces oxygen as a byproduct, though some may also use hydrogen sulfide a process which occurs among other photosynthetic bacteria such as the purple sulfur bacteria. Carbon dioxide is reduced to form carbohydrates via the Calvin cycle.
