How would you expect the number of mitochondria in a cell to be related to the amount of active transport it carries out?

The greater the amount of active transport carried out by a cell, the greater the amount of mitochondria would be found in the cell.

Active transport uses energy. Mitochondria undergoes aerobic respiration to release large amounts of energy. If the cell is found to be lacking in energy needed for active transport, the cell would adapt by synthesizing more mitochondrion to ensure that it's demand of energy is met.

If green plant cells are incubated in the presence of CO2 molecules containing radioactive carbon atoms, the fate of the carbon
stellarik [79]

Answer:

  1. Glycine
  2. Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate
  3. 3-phosphoglycerate
  4. Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
  5. Glucose
  6. Sucrose

Explanation:

The glycine, among other amino acids, helps to improve chlorophyll production and promotes the process of photosynthesis.  

<u>Calvin cycle</u>

During the carbon fixation phase, a CO² molecule combinate with a ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate to form 6-carbonated molecules, which will divide into two 3-phosphoglycerate molecules.  

During the reduction phase, NADPH donates its electrons to reduce 3-phosphoglycerate molecules, and turn them into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.

During the regeneration phase, a glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecule leaves the cycle and goes to the cytosol to form glucose. This step can be done when three CO² enter the cycle and produce six glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules. One of them leaves the cycle to form glucose, while the other five are recycled.

<u>Cytosol: </u>

Once in the cytosol, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules are used to form glucose and fructose. These two molecules are the monosaccharides that form the sucrose.

Once sucrose is formed, it is transported from the photosynthetic tissues to different parts of the plant by the phloem.

Is DNA synthesized continually during the cell cycle
vagabundo [1.1K]
  <span>No 
DNA is synthesized in the middle part of Interphase, which is usually denoted S in the series G1 - S - G2  </span><span>"There are 3 stages of interphase: G1 in which the cell grows and functions normally. Once it grows too large it enters the synthesis (S) phase. In S phase the cell makes exact copies of its DNA. It is now ready for G2 phase where it makes sure all of its chromosomes and organelles are ready for mitosis."</span>
