Hello
the answer is sickelle cell disese
have a nice day
Answer:
Explanation: step 1 Carbon enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from respiration (breathing) and combustion (burning). The Carbon Cycle Step 2 Carbon dioxide is absorbed.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Question: Why do organisms without oxygen need to convert pyruvate to lactate?
A) because pyruvate is toxic to the cells
B) in order to regenerate NAD+
C) in order to use lactate in the citric acid cycle
D) because lactate is needed to produce ATP
Answer:
B) in order to regenerate NAD+
Explanation:
Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain (ETC) are the aerobic stages of cellular respiration. ETC regenerates NAD+ and FAD+ by oxidation of NADH and FADH2 produced during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. Here, oxygen serves as the terminal electron acceptor.
Glycolytic reactions use NAD+ as an electron acceptor and produce NADH. Therefore, a constant supply of NAD+ is required to sustain glycolysis. In absence of oxygen, ETC cannot occur and organisms convert pyruvate into lactate. Pyruvate is reduced in lactate and NADH serves as the electron donor. Thereby, lactate fermentation regenerates NAD+ to continue the process of glycolysis.
The body would start to shut down, reactions would become weaker and slower, you would begin to get tireder and you's slowly be dying. If no fod is onsued within 2-3 weeks, then the brain will have no nutrients and will die
