The right answer is A. glucose.

The term "oxidation" more broadly refers to a reaction in which a reagent loses one or more electrons.

The oxidation of the glucose molecule occurs during glycolysis by losing its electrons and transmitting them to NAD + to give NADH:

Glucose + 2 ADP + 2 Pi + 2 NAD + -----> 2 pyruvate + 2 ATP + 2 H2O + 2 NADH.

A cloud directly above you is about 10° across. From the weather report, you know that the cloud is at an altitude of 2200 m. Ho

Vikentia [17]

The width of the cloud is : 384 m

<u>Given data :</u>

Cloud altitude = 2200 m

Temperature = 10°

<h3></h3><h3>Determine how wide the cloud is </h3>

applying the equation below

I = d $(\frac{\alpha }{57.3})$

where : I = linear size , d = 2200 m , $\alpha = 10^{o}$

therefore :

I = 2200 ( 10 / 57.3 )

= 383.94 m

≈ 384 m

Hence we can conclude that the width of the cloud is : 384 m

Explain the connection between natural selection, survival

trapecia [35]

Natural selection is the idea that species that acquire adaptations favorable for their environment will pass those adaptations to their offspring. Eventually, only individuals with those favorable adaptations will survive.
