Answer:
The chemical reaction that represents the process of aerobic cell respiration is oxygen + glucose → water + carbon dioxide + energy
Explanation:
Cell respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions in which energy in the form of ATP molecules is obtained from a glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen.
<u>Glucose is the main energetic substrate</u> to be able to synthesize energy in the form of ATP, through oxidative phosphorylation. At the end of the process ATP is obtained as products, and as waste compounds water and carbon dioxide, which can be schematized in the following chemical reaction:
<em> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6H₂O + 6CO₂ + ATP ↑</em>
<em> Glucose + Oxygen → Water + Carbon dioxide + Energy ↑</em>
This reaction summarizes what happens in aerobic cellular breathing, which is necessary to synthesize energy for cellular functions.
The other reactions:
- <em>oxygen + water </em><em>→</em><em> glucose + lactose
</em>
- <em>glucose + lactose </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + water
</em>
- <em>water + carbon dioxide + energy </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + glucose</em>

Answer:
Two adaptations of Darwin's Finches that helped them to survive are:
- Behavioral adaptations to use tools for foraging.
Explanation:
There are fourteen species of Darwin's finches that originated from a single species of ground dwelling seed eating finch.
These Finches occupied different niche in the Galapagos island and were widely studied by Darwin.
These finches are one of the best Examples of Adaptive radiation.
Studies state that during severe drought in Galapagos island most vegetation dried out and a few softer seeds were left.
These few seeds were quickly fed upon by the birds and only dry , hard seeds were left.
Only birds who had large and hard beaks could feed on these hard dry seeds.
To Ensure survival the Finches developed adaptations which resulted in hard and large beaks so that they can feed on those dried hard seed.
Some groups started feeding on insects and got their beaks adapted to capture and kill insects.
Second line of adaptation included changes in behaviour and cognitive intelligence where birds started using tools for foraging.
Its true that the cerebral cortex is the highest portion of the brain.
The Phytoplankton <span>support nutrients in water and from the base of many aquatic ecosystems.</span>
They appear to be green because of the chloroplast in the cells.
