MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: The correct answer is Kreb cycle.

Cellular respiration is defined as the oxidation of food into CO₂ ( cabon dioxide) and H₂O ( water) in order to produce energy in the form of ATP ( adenosine triphosphate).

It occurs in three stages that is Glycolysis, Kreb cycle, and Electron transport chain.

Kreb cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria. It includes the oxidation of a two carbon compound that is Acetyl- CoA in order to generate a pool of chemical energy in the form of ATP, NADH, FADH₂.

On the contrary, glycolysis and fermentation occur in the cytoplasm.

Which phrase listed below best describes the function of the digestive system?
xz_007 [3.2K]


The best answer is C - to break down food into nutrients.

The digestive system  breaks down food  into its simplest form that cell are able to utilize  for energy.  Food is broken down into its monomer units. Proteins are broken down into amino acids, lipids are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol and carbohydrates are broken down into glucose.

Glucose is then absorbed into the blood and transported to every cell in the body. The cells take in glucose and use it as fuel and raw material  in the process of cellular respiration. From one molecule of glucose, 36 to 38 molecules of ATP ( the form of energy used by cells) are produced.

Explanation:

  • An alternative stable state is one which suggests the discrete states are sperate by an ecological threshold and in opposition to the ecosystem that is changing and thereby stating that the ecosystem can exist in a variety of alternative state.  
  • The first species after origin grows develops and then declines. This community of species may be disturbed in middle such as by a fire or flood and forms the secondary community which is more diamine and resistant. The changes are known as seres in biomes.
