liubo4ka [24]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>This is an example of transduction. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Sound from the external environment is collected by the outer ear.</em> It then passes through <em>the auditory canal and reaches the tympanum. </em>

The <em>tympanum then vibrates</em> and these vibrations are then sent to the middle ear which consists of three small bones called malleus, incus and stapes. The sound is amplified  by these<em> tiny bones and the amplified sound is sent to the inner ear. </em>

From the inner ear the sound signals are converted into electrical signals and the auditory nerve sends these signals to the brain. <em>What takes place here is transduction . </em>

The correct sequence for aerobic metabolic breakdown of glucose is
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

a. glycolysis—preparatory reaction--cirtric acid cycle--electron transport system

Explanation:

  • Glycolysis is the first stage of cellular respiration that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. During glycolysis one 6 carbon glucose is converted into two molecules of 3 carbon pyruvic acid or pyruvate.
  • In the preparatory reaction, the pyruvate converted into a two-carbon molecule called acetyl CoA. In this reaction, a carbon dioxide molecule is released and a molecule of NADH is released.
  • The citric acid cycle begins with the reaction of the acetyl CoA with a four-carbon molecule in the mitochondrisl matrix. It goes through a cycle of reactions regenerating the four-carbon starting molecule. ATP, NADH and FADH₂ are produced.
  • The electron transport system is the terminal step of aerobic respiration that operates on the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH₂ move along electron transport system release high-energy electrons and produce ATP.

what happens to an ecosystem as biodiversity increase? are there impacts to human? economies or survival? explain​
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

But certain stressors, most of them human-caused or human-influenced, threaten or reduce biodiversity. Because the creatures and plants in ecosystems are interdependent, the loss of even one species can have profound effects on the entire ecosystem, can affect other ecosystems and can endanger people as well.
