<span>He is at an increased risk for sudden infant death. Since he is sleeping on a mattress that might inhibit his breathing, as well as having respiratory issues that might do the same (along with parents who are smoking, which will only inhibit proper respiration further), he will need to be constantly checked to make sure he is sleeping properly.</span>

Explain how scientists think about fitness
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Scientists believe that fitness is not only the ability to have physical fitness but it also refers to the adaptations that make an organism survive in its environment.

According to biological studies, biologists believe that the ability of an organism to survive in a particular area and to pass on its characteristics to its offspring is fitness.

The health scientists define fitness as the ability of an individual to be physically fit and to move without pain.

The scientists which study psychology believe that fitness is the well functioning of a person;s body as well as his/her mind.

Anaerobes carry on whereas aerobes carry on cellular respiration
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Anaerobes carry on cellular respiration in the absence of oxygen, whereas aerobes carry on cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen.        

Explanation:

Many of the cell processes needed need some energy to occur. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells degrade organic compounds and turn them into energy. Cellular respiration follows two ways, which depend on the presence or absence of oxygen, and both of them begin with the process of glycolysis, which occurs in the cytoplasm and does not need oxygen to occur.

<u>Aerobic Respiration</u>

  1. Occurs in the presence of free oxygen.
  2. Series of reactions by which pyruvic acid (product of glycolysis) turns into CO₂ and H₂O, producing many ATP molecules.
  3. Respiration occurs in the mitochondria.
  4. Takes place in two steps or stages: Krebs cycle and electron transporter chain.
  5. Glycolysis and Krebs cycle produce electrons, which then travel along the electron transporter chain while releasing energy, and ATP is produced.

<u>Anaerobic Respiration </u>

  1. Occurs in the absence of free oxygen
  2. Series of reactions by which using pyruvate (product of glycolysis) 2 ATP molecules van be produced.
  3. There are two ways in which anaerobic respiration can be produced: lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation.
  4. Lactic fermentation produces lactic acid and 2 ATP
  5. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in two steps, and the final products are ethylic alcohol, 2ATP, and 2 CO₂
  6. The whole anaerobic process occurs outside the mitochondria.
