Answer:

A (Oxygen, Sugars)

Explanation:

All living organisms need energy for their life processes. This energy is obtained by the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION. Cellular respiration is a metabolic (catabolic) process common to all living organisms. Cellular respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy (ATP) by combining oxygen and glucose, a sugar found in the food we eat, resulting in the release of carbondioxide (CO2) and water.

Our (Human) body cells need oxygen to undergo this process of cellular respiration, although other organisms like yeast, bacteria etc. don't always need it. Food we eat are broken down into simpler organic molecules (carbohydrates) during digestion and stored as glucose (energy storage molecule). This glucose enters our cell via the blood and broken down. The energy stored in this glucose molecule is freed and used to power our movement and physiological functioning.

Aerobic (oxygen-involving) respiration involves: Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation, where a total of 36 ATP molecules are produced.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Which statement is FALSE about spontaneous generation theory? Group of answer choices When microbes grew in Needham's flask of b
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Redi proved spontaneous generation theory by showing that maggots come from meat, not from other flies.

Explanation:

As rightly stated in the options of this question, the theory of Spontaneous generation is a theory that life forms can be generated from non-living or inanimate objects. Several scientists including Needham, Redi, Pasteur contributed to this theory experimentally by either proving or disproving it. Their contribution are as follows:

- John Needham boiled a broth containing living matter but noticed cloudy appearance representing microbial growth. Hence, when microbes grew in Needham's flask of broth, he proposed it was an example of spontaneous generation occurring in microorganisms.

- Francesco Redi, on the contrary, disproved the theory by conducting an experiment using meat. Redi DISPROVED the theory by concluding that flies were responsible for appearance of maggots on the meat. Hence, the statement that "Redi proved spontaneous generation theory by showing that maggots come from meat, not from other flies" is FALSE.

- Loius Pasteur also disproved the theory of spontaneous generation by using swan-necked flasks. His swan-neck flask experiment demonstrated that spontaneous generation does not occur

What are the definitions for them? Pls help​
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

plate:  a disk formed in the phragmoplast of a dividing plant cell that eventually forms the middle lamella of the wall between the daughter cells.

plate boundary: Plate boundaries are the edges where two plates meet. Most geologic activities, including volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building, take place at plate boundaries. ... Convergent plate boundaries: the two plates move towards each other. Transform plate boundaries: the two plates slip past each other

earthquake: An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of stored energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. ... An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground. The strain becomes so great that rocks give way by breaking and sliding along fault planes.

convirgent: In evolutionary biology, convergence pertains to an evolutionary process wherein organisms evolve structures that have similar (analogous) structures or functions in spite of their evolutionary ancestors being very dissimilar or unrelated.
