Answer:

ii) A catabolic path way.

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.

Why doesnt plants and bacteria expand when it reaches water
kap26 [50]

When the plants and bacteria reach water, they get into a hypotonic solution means, the concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside of it. When the plant and bacteria are placed in water, they take up water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting. The plant cell become turgid. Turgidity means the cells are swollen and hard. The increase in pressure makes the cell rigid. This is why they do not expand and burst.

Which statements describe analogous structures? Select three options. Analogous structures indicate a common ancestor. Analogous
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

Analogous structures do not indicate a common ancestor. Analogous structures have the same function but a different structure. An example of an analogous structure is the wing of a bat and a butterfly.

Explanation:

Analogous structures are the structures that have a similar function in various organisms but their anatomic structure is different from one another in reality. Analogous structures are do not indicate a common ancestor.

An analogous structures example is the wings of the bat and butterfly as they are both used for flying but their structure is different anatomically from one another.
