Answer:
Energy is stored in <u>glucose</u> molecules <u>C6H12O6</u>
<u />
Explanation:
Producers make sugars stored as monomers bonded together to form polysaccharides, long chain hydrocarbon molecules as a result of the process of <u>photosynthesis</u>. These molecules, like the monosaccharide glucose, store converted solar energy as stable chemical energy in covalent bonds. In covalent bonding, the elements share electrons with each other.
These high-energy bonds are stable and not easily destabilized or broken. The energy is retrieved the the process of respiration in the mitochondria.
Glucose is broken down, while energy is transferred to bonds between ADP and inorganic phosphate, to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Eg. for aerobic respiration...
C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
glucose+ oxygen → carbon dioxide+ water+ energy
Answer:
Catabolite repression
Explanation:
Catabolite repression is characteristic for prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and this is the way to control metabolism.
It is called repression, because enzymes that are involved in other sugar's metabolism are inhibited (repressed). The system of catabolite repression have components such as:
- sensory systems-detects ratios of glycolytic intermediates,
- global regulators-control the expression of genes that encode for enzymes.
Earth’s axis passes through the North and South Poles. It takes Earth 24 hours to rotate once around its axis. Earth revolves once around the Sun in 365 days during a non-leap year.
Answer:
The best evidence for the three domain system is
Sensitivity to Antibiotics
Explanation:
The three domains of life includes :
Archaea - oldest known domain, ancient forms of bacteria.
Bacteria - all other bacteria that are not included in the Archaea domain.
Eukarya - all the organisms that are eukaryotic or contain membrane-bound organelles and nuclei.
Types of evidences for the three domain system are:
1) differences in the sequences of nucleotides in the cell's robosomal RNAs (rRNA)
2) the cells's membrane lipid structure.
3) its sensitivity to antibiotics.
