Answer:

The correct answer will be: are the largest of the four main biological macromolecules, consist of DNA and RNA and whether an organism is a bacterium, tree, mouse, or human.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are the macromolecules which act as genetic material of organisms.Two types of nucleic acids-DNA and RNA act as genetic material.

The structure of these nucleic acids are long chains formed by the bonding of nucleotide units. These nucleotides are made up of 5-C sugar, phosphate and nitrogenous base which make up the long chains of molecule and forms one of the largest biological macromolecule.

The order of nitrogenous bases (adenine,guanine, cytosine, thymine) in the functional part of DNA also called genes decides the fate of cell as they code for proteins. The sequence of these bases in genes is highly conserved among organisms giving uniqueness to the organism but the variation in the sequence of DNA or nitrogenous bases leads to the formation of new organism or new species.

Thus, these options are the correct answer.

Describe how the process of photosynthesis led to an increase in cellular respiration and more complex cells

koban [17]

Answer:

BRIEF EXPLANATION

Photosynthesis is the anabolic process of building up glucose and making O2 from CO2 and water while cellular respiration is the opposite catabolic process of breaking down glucose by oxidizing it with O2 to get CO2 and water.

Explanation:

MAIN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION.

Photosynthesis is like when you’re trying to gain muscle and you eat tuna and eggs to turn it into muscle tissue. This takes energy in the form of food just like how photosynthesis requires sunlight for energy.

Cellular respiration is like when impoverished people starve for a week because they don’t have sufficient food to eat for nutrients. They have to get them from somewhere else. So the body breaks down glycogen, body fat and muscle tissue to provide the energy.

_____ are chemical signals that, instead of being secreted into the bloodstream, are introduced by animals into their habitats.

Oduvanchick [21]

Pheromones is your answer. Pheromones are hormones that can act outside of the body - they they are mostly used by humans and insects in order to attract mates. There are several different pheromones, in fact, that have an effect on behavior.
