Answer:

Pit

Explanation:

Pit are one of the organs in rattlesnake that allows them to detect infrared radiation. The other organ that functions in a similar manner is their eyes.

The pit organ acts like a pin hole camera, allowing radiation to pass though its opening and eventually hitting and warming the back wall.

<em>The ability to detect infrared heat radiation enables rattlesnakes to locate its prey in any environmental condition, especially in the dark. Rattlesnake's preys are usually warm blooded, hence, the relevance of the infrared heat radiation detecting pit.</em>

Which of the following statements regarding glycolysis is FALSE?
Levart [38]

Answer:

c. Glycolysis evolved in an oxygen-rich environment.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the pathway that breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. It is a common pathway that is performed by both aerobic and anaerobic organisms. In aerobic organisms, glycolysis is followed by Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain. In anaerobic organisms, alcohol or lactic acid fermentation regenerate the NAD+ which is required to sustain glycolysis.

Therefore, glycolysis is independent of oxygen availability and can be performed under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This means that the pathway of glycolysis evolved under anaerobic conditions.
