Answer;

-ADP

When ATP loses a phosphate, energy is released and ADP is formed

Explanation;

In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP.

The most common is a molecule that we call ATP (Adenosine triphosphate). ATP is a nucleic acid containing three high energy phosphate groups. It breaks off these groups to release measured amounts of energy.

When ATP loses one phosphate group, it becomes Adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is ADP ( adenosine diphosphate).

ATP is the energy currency of the cell. It stores energy in its high energy phosphoanhydride bond, which are present between phosphate. During ATP hydrolysis, the high energy bond is broken down and the large amount of stored energy is liberated. Therefore, ATP loses a phosphate and gets converted into ADP and inorganic phosphate.

Thus, ADP is formed when ATP loses a phosphate.

Answer:

Genetic drift

Explanation:

Genetic drift can also be referred to as allelic drift, it refers to the variation in allelic frequencies within a particular population over a period of time. It can also be referred to as the random fluctuations in the number of genotypes within a population. Genetic drift is not influenced by the environment and is usually more pronounced in a small population of organisms.

For example, a population of birds can consist of green feathers and blue feathers with the green feathers as the dominant allele, but as a result of random fluctuations, the offspring may all be with green feathers and hence could eliminate or reduce the allele responsible for blue feathers over time.

Which of the following terms describes the movement of water from the surface to the atmosphere?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The answer is evaporation.

Explanation:

Runoff is not right because runoff is water that hits the surface of the earth, then runs down into natural bodies of water. It is not condensation either. That is because condensation is when cool water vapor comes into contact with humid, warm air causes water droplets to appear on the surface of what is containing the cool water vapor. Finally, precipitation is when water comes down from the atmosphere to the surface of the earth, therefore this is incorrect. Evaporation however is when water from the surface of the earth turns into water vapor and goes into the atmosphere. Therefore it is the right answer.

What are check points and why are they important in the cell cycle
pentagon [3]
Hmm this is a rough explanations but because to be sure cells are made properly and not misfunctioning or going Rouge.

Cancer cells is an example of this, a cell goes rouge and starts doing it's function on it's own but outside of it's brother cells function slightly different turning into a growth or etc. The body thinks it is normal during the check body it's composed of the dna that passes this check.

viruses and other things don't pass this check and things like white blood cella come shut it down.

that's why doctors poison the area they find the cancer. to send white blood cells there to shut the area down not passing the check.
