The site above can help. It says that... "Without oxygen, cellular respiration could not occur because oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport system. The electron transport system would therefore not be available. Glycolysis can occur without oxygen. Although glycolysis does not require oxygen, it does require NAD+. Cells without oxygen available need to regenerate NAD+ from NADH so that in the absence of oxygen, at least some ATP can be made by glycolysis

Answer: Cellular respiration is the process by which the glucose is broken down and energy is produced in the form of adenosine triphosphte in the presence of oxygen.

Explanation: During this process hydrogen and its bonding electrons exchange its partners.

The hydrogen and its bonding electrons move from glucose to the oxygen which forms water and adenosine tri phosphate.

This hydrogen transfer to oxygen makes it so useful in cellular respiration.

artcher [175]

The answer is auxin can move to the shady side of the stem.

Phototropism is a reaction to environmental factors. It is a plant's response to sunlight in the form of movement. In plants, phototropism is very prevalent. In actuality, it is necessary for plant growth. Other plant movements also occur in response to touch, water, gravity, and other factors. Phototropism was discovered due to well-known experiments by Charles Darwin and Boysen Jensen.

There are two types of phototropism:

Positive phototropism

Negative phototropism.
