Food molecules contain chemical energy which is released when its chemical bonds are broken.

Food undergoes  digestion in the digestive system and is broken down into its monomer units. Carbohydrates, which are the principal source of energy, are broken down into glucose. Glucose is the monomer unit of carbohydrates.

Glucose then is taken up by cells and is used in cellular respiration, which involves three main stages namely glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, through which a glucose molecule is processed to form at least 36 molecules of ATP.

ATP is the form of energy that cells use.

Organ where carbohydrate absorption occurs
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: Small intestines

Explanation: Digestion of carbohydrates begins in the mouth mechanically and through salivary amylase. It passes down to the stomach by parastalsis, digested further and goes to the small intestines where their absorption begins. Carbohydrates are a source of glucose, that most organs use as their primary energy source. Indigestible carbohydrates and fibers travels down to the large intestines where they are digested by bacteria or eliminated as waste through the anus.

The small intestines consist of microvilli that increase surface area for maximum nutrient absorption. Carbohydrates are absorbed by the small intestines via the jejunum, taken to the blood stream then transported to the liver where glycolysis and most metabolic pathways take place, for energy production.

Why is blood type considerd a form of codominace​
Radda [10]

HEY I THINK THIS WILL HELP?

<u>they inherited a recessive O allele from both parents. The A and B alleles are </u><u>codominant</u>.<u> Therefore, if an A is inherited from one parent and a B from the other, the phenotype will be AB. Agglutination tests will show that these individuals have the characteristics of both type A and type B blood.</u>

Describe the means by which Hershey and Chase established that only the DNA of a phage enters an E. coli cell. What conclusions
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Harshey and chase labeled T2 bacteriophage with radioactive sulfur and radioactive phosphorus. As DNA contains phosphorus, not protein and protein contain sulfur, not phosphorus, therefore, the presence of radioactivity in cell can determine which is the genetic material .

Then Harshey and Chase infected <em>E.coli</em> with T2 bacteriophage and centrifuged the cell. They found radioactive phosphorus in cell pellet and radioactive sulfur in supernatant.

So by this experiment, they concluded and proved that DNA is the genetic material that gets transfer from one generation to another.
