What’s the smallest muscle in the human body?
The stapedius, in your middle ear, measures about 1mm in size (or
1/26 of an inch). Connected to the stapes bone, it contracts to pull
back the stapes and help protect your inner ear from loud noises. The
stapedius also contracts to keep your own voice from sounding too loud
in your head.
What’s the smallest bone in the human body?
Conveniently, that would be the stapes. It is one of three tiny bones
in the middle ear that convey sound from the outer ear to the inner
ear. Collectively called the ossicles, these bones are individually
known as the malleus, incus, and stapes. Those are Latin words for the
shapes the bones resemble: a hammer, anvil, and stirrup.
What’s the smallest organ in the human body?
You’ll find the pineal gland near the center of the brain, in a
groove between the hemispheres. It’s not an organ like those in the
abdominal cavity. It’s the human body’s smallest endocrine gland, and it
produces melatonin, a hormone (derived from serotonin) that affects how
we sleep, wake up, and react to seasonal changes. It’s called pineal
because it’s shaped like a little pinecone.
What’s the smallest blood vessel in the human body?
<span>Capillaries, the smallest, thinnest-walled blood vessels in the body,
connect veins and arteries. They can be as small as 5-10 micrometers
wide — or 50 times thinner than a baby’s hair. Each of us contains about
10 billion of them, with the average adult body containing about 25,000
miles of capillaries.</span>
Answer:
The correct order would be
- Glucose
- ATP→ADP
- H₂O
- Pyruvate
- CO₂
Explanation:
Following reactions occur in Glycolysis and Kreb's Cycle
- Phosphorylation of Glucose- In the first step of glycolysis, Glucose is converted into Glucose-6-Phosphate using 1 ATP molecule by Hexokinase enzyme. One phosphate group from ATP is attached to glucose by the enzyme, thus forming ADP.
- Dehydration- In the ninth step of Glycolysis, each of two molecules of 2-Phosphoglycerate are converted to Phosphoenol Pyruvate, by Enolase enzyme, releasing two H₂O molecules.
- Formation of Pyruvate- In the last or tenth step of Glycolysis, each of two molecules of Phosphoenol Pyruvate are converted to Pyrutave using an ATP by the enzyme Pyruvate Kinase.
- Oxidation Of Pyruvate to Acetyl-CoA- Before the Kreb's Cycle starts, the Pyruvate molecule obtained from the Glycolysis undergoes oxidative decarboxylation producing Acetyl-CoA and release of CO₂ and NADH.
Is the letter A) sunlinght and nutrient availability
The answer to your question is flowering plants are the most recently evolved of the major groups of plants, arising only about 130 million years ago. Despite their geological youthfulness, angiosperms are the dominant plants of the world today: about 80% of all living plant species are flowering plants. Furthermore, they occupy a greater variety of habitats than any other group of plants. The ancestors of flowering plants are the gymnosperms , which are the other major group of plants that produce seeds. The gymnosperms, however, produce their seeds on the surface of leaf-like structures, which makes the seeds vulnerable to mechanical damage when winds whip the branches back and forth, and to drying out. Most importantly, conifer seeds are vulnerable to insects and other animals, which view seeds as nutritious, energy packed treats. In angiosperms, the margins of the seed-bearing leaves have become inrolled and fused, so the seeds are no longer exposed but are more safely tucked inside the newly evolved "vessel," which is the ovary.
The other major advance of the angiosperms over the gymnosperms was the evolution of the flower, which is the structure responsible for sexual reproduction in these plants. The function of sexual reproduction is to bring together genetic material from two individuals of differing ancestry, so that the offspring will have a new genetic makeup.
