Energy transfers in cellular respiration are different from those in photosynthesis because in cellular respiration

Biology
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago

The answer is;  In cellular respiration, chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy; in photosynthesis, radiant energy is transformed into chemical energy.


Cellular respiration involves the breakdown of organic molecules (such as glucose) that store chemical energy in their chemical bonds. This energy is harnessed and converted to ATP (another chemical energy storage) ATP is then used to power cellular activities in the cell such as contraction of muscle fibers (this is transformation of chemical to mechanical energy).

Photosynthesis harnesses the radiant energy from the photos of sunlight to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen ions. The hydrogen is then used to reduce carbon dioxide to organic compounds such as glucose that store the harnessed energy in their chemical bonds.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

d. being diploid means that humans cannot mask the effects of recessive alleles. humans always show both alleles in their phenotypes and genotypes

Explanation:

Being diploid means humans carry two sets of chromosomes. Since we have both dominant and recessive gene types, humans can mask the effect of recessive alleles since the dominant trait will be seen in the phenotype or genotype since it is a dominant gene. The effect of the recessive allele will show up only if both diploid genes are recessive.
