The answer is (1)


In the cell of the body, oxygen is used in a process that releases energy. Oxygen is used in the last and most important step in cellular respiration namely the electron transport chain.

In this process electrons are passed from one electron carrier to another and as they are  thus transferred, energy is released. Toward the final step, electrons are transferred  to oxygen which is the final acceptor of the electrons. By the time the process ends, 34 ATP molecules are produced.

Start with the P generation with the following genotypes (AA x aa). Based on classical Mendelian inheritance, how will a cross b
vampirchik [111]

Answer: The genotype of the generation resulting from the given P ( parental generation) is Aa that is all offsprings in the first generation will be heterozygous dominant.  

The genotype of the parents is AA and aa and the gametes produced by these parents are A and a respectively.

When these gametes fuse, they result in the offsprings with genotype Aa. This represents a dominant phenotype due to the presence of dominant gene  (  a gene that masks the expression of recessive gene and expresses itself), which is A in this case.

An important challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species was the observation that seemingly dissimilar organisms, su
choli [55]

Answer:

these seemingly dissimilar organisms might have evolved from a distant

Explanation:

Evolution deals with history of organism survival on Earth.

The evolutionary biologists makes use of fossils as proves to give light to having a clear view of how species survived in past times.

Before the theory of natural selection by Charles Darwin, Evolutionary Biologists were filled with questions about why the type of skeletal structural specimens collected were equal and different in dissimilar organisms as it does not exhibit the links seen between these species.

The theory of evolution proposed the mechanism of divergent evolution as a solution to these questions.

Therefore, we conclude that "these seemingly dissimilar organisms might have evolved from a distant" is the right answer.
