Answer:

D) Radioactive sulfur.

Explanation:

The process begins by labelling the yeast with the radioactive sulfur and then it is incorporated into the peptides. Then the scientists can detect and isolate small portions of it.

Radioactive sulfur is preferred  for this process because it is short-lived.

Agonist/antagonist
 Agonist are drugs that bind and activate a receptor with effecting the response.If the effect results in maximum response it is considered as full agonist. However if the drug that binds to the receptor results only into partial efficacy in relation to the full activation of the receptor, this is considered as partial agonist.

Antagonist are drugs that blocks a biologic response of a hormone or another drug. They usually have affinity to the receptors but has no efficacy. This drug will just inhibit the activation of the receptors by the aganist.

With the equation of cellular respiration C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂+ 6H₂O, gaseous exchange takes place, glucose reacts with oxygen forming Adenosine Triphosphate used by cells.

About 21% of oxygen and 0.4% of carbon dioxide of air is inhaled while the air we breathe out contains 16.4% of oxygen and 4.4% of carbon dioxide because cells use oxygen inhaled to release energy and carbon dioxide as byproduct.

<h3>How does Cellular Respiration work?</h3>

Cellular respiration is how organisms convert fuel into energy and nutrients by combining oxygen with food molecules, sending the chemical energy for life sustaining activities while expelling carbon dioxide and water.

We inhale 21% of oxygen and 0.4% of carbon dioxide and exhale 16.4% of oxygen and 4.4% of carbon dioxide as by product during the process of cellular respiration.
