What is released when sugar is broken down

Biology
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago
5 0
Mainly there's 3 types of respiration (the breakdown of sugar to release energy). Aerobic respiration, anaerobic respiration in muscles and anaerobic respiration in organisms such as yeast.

Aerobic respiration is to use oxygen and glucose to release water and carbon dioxide. Most of our cells undergo aerobic respiration to generate energy.

Anaerobic respiration in muscles is to only use glucose to generate lactic acid and energy (not carbon dioxide). Anaerobic respiration only happens when we have lack of oxygen, such as during vigorous exercises. Note that this kind of respiration creates a oxygen debt.

Anaerobic respiration in yeasts is to use glucose and release ethanol and carbon dioxide. Since they release ethanol, this respiration is commonly used in wine brewing. And due to that they also release carbon dioxide, they're used in baking bread (alcohol evaporates by the time the bread bakes).

Which statements describe steps taking place in the nitrogen cycle shown above?
astraxan [27]

The statements that describe steps taking place in the nitrogen cycle are

  • Many biotic and abiotic factors play a role in recycling nitrogen ( A )
  • Farming practices and chemicals lead to a build-up of nitrates in the soil ( E )

Nitrogen cycle is biochemical process whereby nitrogen is converted to various chemical forms as it passes through the atmosphere, Marine and terrestrial ecosystems .

Nitrogen cycle undergoes four ( 4 ) important processes which are :  

  • Fixation
  • Ammonification
  • Nitrification and
  • Denitrification

Hence we can conclude that The statements that describe steps taking place in the nitrogen cycle are :

Many biotic and abiotic factors play a role in recycling nitrogen and

Farming practices and chemicals lead to a build-up of nitrates in the soil

Contrast potential and kinetic energy. Give an example of potential being changed to kinetic energy.
loris [4]

Answer:

First, the raised hammer has more potential energy since it has the potential to go higher or lower. Second, when you hit the hammer on the table, the stored potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the hammer is falling. (It's the falling hammer that has kinetic energy)

Explanation:

Another example-When rolling a ball down a ramp the ball at its highest point has potential energy but when it rolls down the ramp it converts to kinetic energy

Hope this helps :)

In ________and ________ no energy is used. Which one needs a helper to get things across?__________
MissTica
In DIFFUSION AND FACILITATED DIFFUSION no energy is used. The one that needs a helper to get thing across is FACILITATED DIFFUSION.<span> Facilitated diffusion involves the diffusion of materials across the cell plasma membrane with the aid of membrane proteins such as carriers and channels. The process of diffusion does not need a carrier, the molecules to be transported just move on their own from the area of high concentration to the region of low concentration until the concentration in the space become uniform.</span>
