Answer:
Plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Explanation:
- Cellular respiration is the conversion of glucose into ATP and energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2 along with water and oxygen and carbon dioxide as by-products.
- Cellular respiration is a process that occurs both in autotrophs and heterotrophs.
- Only the final stage of cellular respiration i.e. oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
- Heterotrophic cells don't take in carbondioxide, they utilize glucose obtained through food.
Answer:
Part A: Proteins are made from amino acid monomers. There are 20 different types of amino acids which make up all the proteins of the body. The amino acids are made up of a carbon atom which is joined to an amino group, a carboxyl group and a variant group, known as R. Nucleic acids are made up of 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases. Hence, nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.
Part B: Protiens are important molecule which carry out various functions of the body. They are involved in regulation of various body process. Some proteins are involved in the transportation of various molecules. Other type of proteins are involved in various immune functions and hence protect the body. For example, antibodies are proteins which defend the body against pathogens.
Nucleic acids are involved in the storing and expressing of genetic information. They also direct the body for protein synthesis.
Answer:
The eukaryotic plant animal cells are differ having some cell organelles in it.
Explanation:
The first difference is the cell wall, which is present in all eukaryotic plants. It gives shape and rigidity to the plants. But all the animal cell the outer covering is cell membrane. They lack cell wall.
All the plant cell have chlorophyll pigment. It helps them to photosynthesis. In animal cell, chlorophyll molecule are absent. So they depend on plants for their food.
The eukaryotic plant cell more space is occupied by the vacuoles. It stores food and water for the plants. However, animal cells have no vacuole or if present, it is very small in size.
All animal cells have lysosomes, which help in digestion of various materials in the cell. Plants does not contain lysosomes.
Besides this organelles all other structure of plant and animals are similar. They both have nucleus, DNA, cytoplasm, mitochondria, etc.
Answer:
Broad-spectrum antibiotics can cause antibiotic resistance.
Explanation:
- Antibiotics are the substances that inhibit the growth of or kill the bacteria and hence, these are used as medications for the treatment of a lot of bacterial diseases.
- These antibiotics can either be of broad-spectrum or the narrow spectrum.
- The broad-spectrum antibiotics are the ones that are effective against a variety of bacteria, both gram-positive and negative whereas the narrow-spectrum antibiotics are the ones that target only a specific type of bacteria.
- Since the bacteria can mutate very fast and hence, develop antibiotic resistance, the doctors usually avoid prescribing broad-spectrum antibiotics and only use them when the causal bacteria is completely unknown.
- Hence, in the given case the provider prescribes separate medications for both types of bacteria.
