Imagine that a plant cell has a damaged large central vacuole that is not functioning. which statement best describes how damage
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

The primary function of the large central vacuole in a plant cell is to maintain turgor pressure against the cell wall of the plant. This vacuole also perform other functions such as storage (water and other nutrients) and waste disposal. When this vacuole is damaged in plant cells, the cells may no longer be able maintain turgor pressure and store materials (water inclusive). Also, <u>If the cell cannot store raw materials via the large central vacuole, the chloroplast will lack the raw materials required for photosynthesis</u>.

Select all the correct answers.<br> Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
Ghella [55]

Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?

It is synthesized toward the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.

It is synthesized away from the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.

Answer:

The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"

Explanation:

Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.

In which process CO2, is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

B) Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle)

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks glucose into two pyruvate molecules. Pyruvate is decarboxylated into acetyl CoA and the reaction occurs in the matrix of mitochondria. In the mitochondrial matrix, acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle and is broken down into CO2 and H2O. For one molecule of acetyl CoA, two molecules of CO2 are released as a by-product. Therefore, out of three carbon atoms of pyruvate, two are released as CO2 during Kreb's cycle.
