In the cell, which organelle has the function of using oxygen in the breakdown of glucose, releasing energy and carbon dioxide?

2 answers:

6 0

Aerobic cellular respiration uses oxygen and yields many more ATP molecules than anaerobic cellular respiration, which does not use oxygen and yields only 2 ATP molecules. There are three stages in the process of transforming glucose to ATP: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.

How does eukaryotic cellular division differ from prokaryotic?

Feliz [49]

Prokaryotic cells are simpler than eukaryotic cells. This is because prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome, no nucleus, and few other organelles. Eukaryotic cells have many chromosomes inside a nucleus, and they also have more organelles.

What are some good and bad results on irradiation being used on seeds

malfutka [58]

Explanation:

The effects of gamma radiation are investigated by studying plant germination, growth and development, and biochemical characteristics of maize. Maize dry seeds are exposed to a gamma source at doses ranging from 0.1 to 1 kGy. Our results show that the germination potential, expressed through the final germination percentage and the germination index, as well as the physiological parameters of maize seedlings (root and shoot lengths) decreased by increasing the irradiation dose. Moreover, plants derived from seeds exposed at higher doses did not survive more than 10 days. Biochemical differences based on photosynthetic pigment (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotenoids) content revealed an inversely proportional relationship to doses of exposure. Furthermore, the concentration of chlorophyll a was higher than chlorophyll b in both irradiated and non-irradiated seedlings. Electron spin resonance spectroscopy used to evaluate the amount of free radicals induced by gamma ray treatment demonstrates that the relative concentration of radiation-induced free radicals depends linearly on the absorbed

The crispr system involves the cas9 enzyme, which identifies specific nucleotides to be cut using a(n) ________ molecule as a gu

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

RNA

Explanation:

CRISPR system was discovered by a Japanese scientist. Naturally bacteria and many other prokaryotes have CRISPR system in their genome which they use as a self defense against a pathogen which is invading them. It consists of inter spaced, short palindromic nucleotide repeats which encode a guide RNA (gRNA). This guide RNA (gRNA) recognizes the target sequence on the pathogen. The gRNA is followed by Cas9 enzyme which along with the gRNA plays a very important role in breaking genome of the pathogen. Once the target gene is cut down the rest of the DNA can be rejoined by non homologous end joining.

But nowadays, scientists are using this system for genome editing and incorporating desired gene between the two ends which are cut down by CRISPR Cas9 system.
