     The prediction Redi made was that Maggots weren't going to rise on the jars fully covered, he wasn't a scientist that actually suported the hypothesis that life was generated spontaneouly, that's why he made this experiment.

      Although many scientists didn't agree with him, it was a very importante experiment for the new hypothesis to come because he was one of the first ones to present it to the world. The hypothesis accepted for some people at that time was that life could rise spontaneously because of rotten food. To prove them wrong, Redi took 8 jars containing meat inside of them, half of them were fully sealed, and the rest was let into the open air. You know what happened right? The ones that were sealed didn't grow up maggots, but the others did.

Answer:

He disproved the Theory of Spontaneous Generation and predicted the All Life comes from life.

Explanation:

The theory of Spontaneous Generation of life states that life can come from non living matter or material without the processes of reproduction.

Francesco Redi an Italian Scientist decided to carry out an experiment in 1668 to test the hypothesis that maggots arose via spontaneous generation from rotting meat

He placed meat in two jars, one of the jars was open while this other jar was covered tightly, the open jar had maggots in the rotten meat. For the second jar , he decided to use a gauze or a cloth to cover the jar, the smell of the meat attracted the flies and the meat in the jar didn't have any maggot present but the gauze did have maggot on them.

This proved that maggots did not just come from the rotting meat spontaneously instead, they came from when flies laid eggs on the meat or on the gauze.

Francesco Redi experiment proved or predicted that All life comes from life.

How is the ATP produced in glycolysis like earning a return on an investment?
daser333 [38]

Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration - the process comprised of series of reactions in which energy is extracted from glucose molecules. The process of glycolysis is almost same in all living organisms.

If we quickly overview the process of glycolysis, we see that it is a process of earning ATPs as a return on ATP investment, why?

  • 2 ATP molecules are invested during the first or preparatory phase pf glycolysis.
  • 2 ATP molecules are formed for each glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecule. Therefore, total four ATP molecules are produced.
  • Other than ATP, 1 NADH + H+ is also produced for each molecule of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
  • Therefore,total amount of 2 NADH and  4ATP molecules are produced.

But since, there was an investment of two ATPs during the preparatory phase of glycolysis. Therefore, a total of  4-2=2 ATPs is formed/ So it is like an earning on an investment.

Hope it help!

Answer:

1/4 suffer from hemophilia

1/4 are heterozygous

Explanation:

So since they are normal but their son isn't it is assumed that the mom is the carrier since the dad has to be X^HY

X^HY x  X^HX^h

Set up a pedigree

X^HX^H X^HX^h

X^HY     X^hY

1/4 suffer from hemophilia (X^h)

1/4 are heterozygous (X^HX^h)

joja [24]
Hello, our reflexes are governed by the spinal cord since these actions happen quickly thus needing to bypass the brain. The other functions, meanwhile, are controlled by the brain itself, with motor skills and involuntary functions such as respiration being controlled by different parts of the brain.
