That would be a true statement

8 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

As per the second law of thermodynamics , there is an increase in  the entropy of an isolated system  as the isolated system moves towards thermal equilibrium i.e the maximum entropy state of the system. In other words the entropy of a system always increases and it can never decrease. Thus. a system never yields as much energy as was put in. This increase in entropy happens because the more and more energy is transferred or changed from one form to the other, the more and more energy is wasted and released which then adds to the total entropy of the system.

Hence, given statement is true

If all cells come from other cells, briefly name and describe this process
alukav5142 [94]
I learned this long ago, I think it's either Mitosis or cell division, this is when one cell divides to make 2 cells and those 2 cell divide to make 4 cells and those 4 cells divide to make 8 cells and so on.

A new antibiotic is produced that inhibits the synthesis of acetyl-CoA and the electron transport chain in bacteria. For each gl
meriva

Answer:

36 ATPs

Explanation:

Cellular respiration starts with glycolysis wherein glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate. The process of glycolysis forms two molecules of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation for each glucose molecule. Both pyruvate molecules are converted into acetyl CoA to enter into the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle forms two ATP molecules by substrate-level phosphorylation. NADH and FADH2 formed during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle are oxidized by the electron transport chain. This process also forms as many as 34 ATP molecules. If acetyl CoA is not formed, the total ATP gain per glucose will be only 2 ATP molecules (from glycolysis only) which is 38-2= 36 less than the total.

Because most nerve cells do not typically undergo mitosis, they are generally not capable of which of the following?a.producing
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

B. generating more nerve cells

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process whereby a cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells. It is way through which living cells reproduce and multiply themselves.

Hence, a nerve cell that do not typically undergo mitosis will be incapable of replicating/multiplying itself, hence, unable to generate more nerve cells.
