Answer:Their strongly hydrophobic nature allows them to function as water repellents on the leaves of some plants, on feathers, and on the cuticles of certain insects. Waxes also serve as energy-storage substances in plankton (microscopic aquatic plants and animals) and in higher members of the aquatic food chain.

When comparing the yield of ATP from the different stages of cellular respiration, which produces the greatest number of ATP

REY [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - electron transport system.

Explanation:

There are 3 main stages of cellular respiration (aerobic) that are Glycolysis, the Kreb's Cycle and the ETS or Electron Transport Chain. The formation of energy in ATPare as follows:

Glycolysis - glucose > 2 Pyretic Acid Molecules =>2 ATP and Hydrogen

The Krebs Cycle - Citric Acid (a derivative of Pyruvic Acid) > 2 ATP in 4 cycles and Hydrogen, carbon dioxide and water.

The Electron Transport Chain > electron carrying Hydrogens > releases the energy as 4 ATP and water

Thus, the correct answer is - The Electron Transport Chain is the stage that produces most of the ATP during cellular respiration.
