The cells of a plant help the plant maintain its life functions. What part of a plant cell has the function of producing sugar i
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

CHLOROPLAST

Explanation:

As stated in this question, plant cells are capable of producing their own food in form of sugar (glucose) using energy from sunlight in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and other certain organisms synthesize their own food using light energy.

The ability to carry out this photosynthetic function is embedded in a structure found in plant cells called CHLOROPLAST. Chloroplast contains a pigment called CHLOROPHYLL, which captures light energy from the sun. Generally, the the function of producing sugar in the presence of sunlight (photosynthesis) occurs in the CHLOROPLAST.

Fully explain how cellular respiration is a chemical process whereby the bonds of food molecules and oxygen molecules are broken
Marianna [84]
Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.


As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

Why we need to monitor and effectively manage earth's resources
stiv31 [10]
Because it's vital to the survival of all species, not just human, that we have resources such as food and water. Also that those resources be clean and healthy. We also need to manage resources such as oil to make sure there are fewer wars like the ones happening in the Middle East. If you need anything else just message me.
