Answer:
             The energy stored in food molecule (glucose) is released in he process of respiration. 

Explanation:                     Respiration is a cellular process in which glucose molecule is broken down into carbon dioxide, water and ATP is produced as end product. Respiration consists of following main steps:
1. Glycolysis:                It occurs in the cytoplasm of cell, and each glucose molecule is converted into two pyruvates with help of ATP.
2. Formation of Acetyl coenzyme A:                                                        It is a connecting link reaction between glycolysis and Kreb cycle. In this phase Each pyruvate react with Coenzyme A to become acetyl coenzyme A.
3. Kreb Cycle:                   It occurs inside mitochondria. In this cycle each acetyl coenzyme A with fixed with CO to produce citrate which undergo in a cyclic reaction to produce ATP and NADH. . 
4. Electron transport chain:                                           It is the last step of respiration which complete in mitochondrial membrane. In this phase most of the energy is produced along with H₂O as by product.

Which of these statements describes some aspect of facilitated diffusion?a.Facilitated diffusion is another name for osmosis.b.F
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion is a form of passive transport hence no energy is required by the cell. This means that while the molecules are moving down a concentration gradient – line normal diffusion – the movement of the molecules needs to be facilitated (in this case by a transmembrane protein) either because the molecule is polar and can't pass through the hydrophobic region of the cell membrane, or the molecule is too big to passively pass through the small natural pores of the cell membrane.

2. A cell in the leaf of a green plant performs both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, often at the same time. Which stat
quester [9]
<h3>♫ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~Hello There!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ♫</h3>

➷ The correct answer would be D. Products of one process are used as some of the reactants for the other processes.

As you may know, the formula for photosynthesis is:

carbon dioxide + water ==> oxygen + glucose

And the formula for respiration is:

oxygen + glucose ==> carbon dioxide + water

The reactants for one are the products for the other and vice versa. This is why it would be the correct option.
