If plants need oxygen for cellular respiration, then why do plants release oxygen into the atmosphere? A. More oxygen is produce

d during photosynthesis than the plant needs for cellular respiration, so the plant needs to release the extra oxygen.
B. Plants need to collect more oxygen from the atmosphere because photosynthesis does not produce enough oxygen to meet their needs.
C. Plants need to release oxygen into the atmosphere so more carbon dioxide can enter the plant for photosynthesis.
D. Plants release oxygen into the atmosphere because the release of oxygen prevents the evaporation.

The correct answer is option A

A plant cell performs both the processes, cellular respiration and photosynthesis. Photosynthesis releases oxygen into the environment and cellular respiration requires oxygen.

The oxygen produced by the plants during the process of photosynthesis is much more than the amount of oxygen required for the cellular respiration.

So, the oxygen that is left after the process of cellular respiration is released into the environment.

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

M phase

Explanation:

While there are many checkpoints within the cell cycle, the specific checkpoint you are referring to most likely takes place in the M (mitosis) phase.

Before the M phase (which includes the G1, S, and G2 phases), the cell grows, the number of organelles increases, and DNA replicates. After the G2 phase, the M phase begins. At the beginning of this phase, the DNA condenses, lines up in the center of the cell, attaches to spindle fibers, and is pulled to opposite ends of the cell. If this checkpoint receives the proper signal, the actual division of the cell will occur.

What is the difference between predation and competition
WARRIOR [948]

In predation, one population is the resource of the other. One can conceptualize competition as occurring horizonatally on the same resource level, while predation takes place vertically between different resource levels. Competition and predation comprise environmental pressures on the interacting populations.

What does anaerobic in anaerobic respiration mean?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: In anaerobic respiration, glucose breaks down without oxygen. The chemical reaction transfers energy from glucose to the cell. Anaerobic respiration produces lactic acid, rather than carbon dioxide and water.

How does a bacteriophage work.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

A bacteriophage attaches itself to a susceptible bacterium and infects the host cell. Following infection, the bacteriophage hijacks the bacterium's cellular machinery to prevent it from producing bacterial components and instead forces the cell to produce viral components.
