Glucose is a six-carbon sugar that is directly metabolized by cells to provide energy. The cells along your small intestine absorb glucose along with other nutrients from the food you eat. A glucose molecule is too large to pass through a cell membrane via simple diffusion. Instead, cells assist glucose diffusion through facilitated diffusion and two types of active transport

They transport themselves across cell membranes by facilitated diffusion and active transport.

Fireflies emit flashes of light because of chemical reactions, which occur in their abdomens. The rate of the chemical reactions
damaskus [11]

Since the rate of flashing depends on the rate of reaction, it means that fireflies will flash slower during cold weather.

<h3>How does temperature affect rate of reactions?</h3>

Temperature affects the rate of reaction such that reactions are faster at high temperatures and slower at low temperatures.

Thus, since the rate of flashing in fireflies depends on the rate of reaction, cold temperature means that the rate of flashing will be low as compared to warm temperature.

In other words, fireflies will flash lower during cold weather and vice versa.

Describe the ATP molecule and its function within a cell.
geniusboy [140]
ATP stores and transports energy in the cells, usually in the mitochondria. Energy is released by hydrolysis (carbohydrates being broken down into sugar molecules), which eventually results in forming ADP (adenosine diphosphate) that absorbs the energy and recharges the phosphate group and ATP

What happens to energy when molecules are built
a_sh-v [17]
The major food molecule in living organisms is a sugar called glucose. Most carbohydrates (sugars and starches) are converted into glucose before they are broken down in the cytosol to release energy. ... If oxygen is present, then glucose can be broken all the way down into carbon dioxide and water.

What is the lithosphere pressure
miskamm [114]

Answer:

What is the pressure on the Lithospheric Mantle? The density of the lithosphere varies depending on temperature, depth and age. At about 50 kilometers (30 miles) below the Earth's surface, density measurements reach 200,000 pounds per square inch (13,790 bars)

Phalloidin is a toxin from a toadstool (mushroom). You are studying actin dynamics and the effect of phalloidin. You add G-actin
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Dissociation of actin subunits occurs.

Explanation:

When we add phalloidin to a solution containing G-actin, the phalloidin binds to actin filaments more tightly as compared to actin monomers which leads to a decrease in the constant rate of dissociation of actin subunits from the ends of the filament. This dissociation stabilizes the actin filaments through the prevention of filament depolymerization. So we can conclude that addition of phalloidin to actin leads to stabilizing of actin filaments.
