Answer:
Anaerobic respiration or fermentation
Explanation:
The metabolic pathway shown in the question is the summary of anaerobic respiration (fermentation) during which pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde, followed by the formation of alcohol (ethanol), along with the release of NADH and NAD molecules. This mechanism occurs in the absence of oxygen and is thus used by organisms to generate energy (ATP) molecules.
Answer:
Option D, a test for the presence of cells that contain DNA
Explanation:
As we know all living organisms are made up of cells and DNA is the basic genetic material that codes for protein and traits with an organism. If even a single cell with DNA is detected on the extraterrestrial planet then it will be clear that it has life on it or the environmental conditions are favorable to support life. Cells are microscopic and hence can be seen through microscope which can be installed easily on a probe.
Hence, option D is correct
Answer:
endosymbiosis.
Explanation:
By the beginning of the 20th century, researchers thought that plastids and mitochondria could come from bacteria. These would have been ingested by primitive cells and live within them in symbiosis.
Answer:
Decrease
Explanation:
The carbon footprint is <u>the amount of carbon (in terms of greenhouse gases) being emitted by human activities</u>. In a situation where <u>social distancing is encouraged, human activity would reduce significantly</u>. Very few people will be outside and the causative agents of pollution (anthropogenic) will be significantly reduced. Further, nature would be able to minimize the impacts of pollution when human activities are less than the threshold capacity.
Let's take an example of coronavirus spread globally this year. The social distancing of 2 meters has significantly reduced the number of people going outside. Ultimately, there are fewer automobiles on the roads and a few industries are running. The result is that the air quality index has been significantly improved. For example, in India, people from 300 km away, can see the Himalayan mountain range very clearly (see image attached). This has not happened in decades after modern industrialization.
Answer:
Internal environmental factors are events that occur within an organization. External environmental factors are events that take place outside of the organization and are harder to predict and control.
