Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (the currency of energy in cells).

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Which statement most accurately describes the process of respiration?

a. It occurs only in plants during the daylight hours and usually involves the exchange of gases. b. It occurs only in plants during the daylight hours and involves the taking in of preformed organic molecules. c. It occurs continuously in the cells of all organisms and involves the synthesis of carbohydrate molecules. d. It occurs continuously in the cells of all organisms and often involves an exchange of gases."

Answer:

d. It occurs continuously in the cells of all organisms and often involves an exchange of gases.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a process in which the cell produces energy from glucose and in the presence of oxygen. This process, which occurs in the cytoplasm and mitochondria, is extremely important and complex, being responsible for the complete oxidation of glucose, which obeys the following reaction: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ENERGY

Cellular respiration occurs continuously in the cells of all organisms and often involves an exchange of gases, as you can see in the equation above.

Explanation:

if we look at this question; it looks glaring that it correlates with a fill in the blank type of question.

So, from the question:

Frank counts 56 maple trees living on a 20-acre tract of land, and the data allows him to calculate the population density of the maple trees on the land.

In an ecological succession, population density refer to species of a common genera in specific geographical setting. It helps to measure the exact number of organism inhabitant a unit area of a place.

He observes that most of the maple trees grow closely together in groups of 6 to 8 trees, which describes the population distribution.

Population distribution is the spread of organism over a region in a geographic ecological setting. The pattern of distribution of organism may be uniform , in some organism they are largely dispersed and in some they are clumped together.

The age structure of the maple trees shows the percentages of trees of different ages.

The age structure is also a term used in ecology which is normally use to predict the proportion of growth of organisms. Age structure of species in the environment speaks volume about their distribution of age.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Water and temperature

Explanation:

Water and temperature are the two most important factors that regulate the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. Water is required for survival by living beings. The availability of water is limited in many habitats such as desert habitats. In such land habitats with water scarcity, the organisms adapted to withstand the limited water availability are found.

Likewise, temperature also affects the distribution of organisms in terrestrial habitats. The presence of temperature conditions below and above the tolerance range of the organisms restricts their geographical distribution. Temperature regulates the enzyme kinetics. Metabolic pathways are catalyzed by enzymes that function under optimal temperature conditions only. Water serves as a medium for metabolic reactions and also regulates body temperature.
