How are homeostasis and cellular respiration mutually dependent on one another?
Arturiano [62]

Cellular respiration describes the process of oxygen and glucose and converting into water and carbon dioxide. Homeostasis is a term which refers to biological processes in which living things must maintain stable and equal conditions for survival. Cellular respiration which uses oxygen and glucose must be able to sustain life by releasing energy which is called ATP, the ATP which is produced enables many biological processes that keeps organisms alive. Cells need energy to grow, move, and function. The process of homeostasis enables cellular respiration to produce enough molecules which can sustain the development of the cell. Without homeostasis cellular respiration would cease to function and without cellular respiration the process of homeostasis would not occur. Homeostasis regulates how much molecules have to be expended in order to produce energy for the process of cellular respiration.

Rudiy27

Answer:

Compound Umbel.

Explanation:

Celery is more of an annual crop which is a herbaceous plant usually 60 to 120 cm high with white Flowers.

The Celery plant belongs to the Apiaceae and they are known to be mainly Annual.

Morphology or the shape of the Celery plant is that of a Compound Umbel, in which all Umbel inflorescences arises from a common point and appears to be at the same level.They change from

elongated axes (racemes and panicles) to flattened axes (corymbs and umbels) which results in inflorescences thereby making the flowers been arranged closely together. This close association encourages efficient pollination,and the extreme condensation of the inflorescences, as in the

head, gives rise to an inflorescence that appears

to be a single flower and example of such happen to be the sunflowers commonly found around us.
