What is released when sugar is broken down

Biology
1 answer:
Lilit [14]2 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).

Living cells cannot use heat to provide the activation energy for biochemical reactions because ________. Which choice(s) comple
postnew [5]

Considering the following;

I. Heat is not readily available to all living cells.

II. Heat at excessive amounts denatures proteins.

III. Heat does not provide the activation energy for their reactions.

IV. When a critical temperature is reached, proteins no longer function

Answer;

I and IV

Explanation;

Living cells cannot use heat to provide the activation energy for biochemical reactions because heat is not readily available to all living cells and also when a critical temperature is reached, proteins no longer function.

Too much heat can kill an organism by rendering its organelles, cells, tissues and organs permanently inoperable and un-salvageable. The same process can be observed in tissues at low temperatures, and is the cause of frostbite. This is because enzymes are denatured by high temperature and inactivated by low.

What is systematics and why is it a less arbitrary and more natural approach to categorizing living organisms?
klio [65]
Systematics is the study of the units of biodiversity. Systematics differs from ecology in that the latter is concerned with the interactions of individuals (and therefore species) in a particular time.
