Which of the following is true of metabolism in its entirety in all organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
musickatia [10]3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is: C) Metabolism consists of all the energy transformation reactions in an organism.

Metabolism can be defined as the sum of all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms. The functions of metabolism include:  

• the conversion of food to energy necessary for proper cell function (transformation of the chemical energy stored in food molecules into energy that can be used for cellular processes)

•  the conversion of food to building blocks (amino acids, free fatty acids, nucleotides, monosaccharaides) for macromolecules (proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, carbohydrates)  

• the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.

Reactions of metabolism can be catabolic (breaking down) or anabolic (synthesis) and also spontaneous (energy release) and non-spontaneous (require energy).

The genetic technique in the above statement describes an ethical issue of: C. transgenic organisms.

<h3>What is a transgenic organism?</h3>

A transgenic organism can be defined as a type of organism which has been modified with genetic materials obtained from other species of organisms.

Generally, transgenic organisms are typically used in the following areas:

  • Agriculture growth.
  • Biotechnology.

In conclusion, we can infer and logically deduce that the modification of organisms through the use of transgenic organisms may contaminate the natural, wild populations.

A 6,000 kg train car is moving to the right at 10 m/s and connects to a 4,000-kg train car that wasn't moving. What is the veloc
SIZIF [17.4K]

6 m/s

This type of collision is a <u>Inelastic collision </u>

Explanation:

We begin by finding the momentum of the initial train car;

Remember that momentum is given by the formulae mass (kg) * velocity (m/s)

Therefore;

Momentum = 6000 * 10

= 60,000 kg⋅m/s

The other car has zero momentum because;

4000 * 0

= 0

When the two train cars collide, the total momentum will be;

60,000 + 0 = 60,000

Therefore to find the velocity, well use the same formulae;

p = mv  whereby;

p – momentum

m – mass

v – velocity

60,000 = (6000 + 4000) * v

v = 60,000 / 10,000

v = 6

= 6 m/s

This is an elastic collision because we are assuming that no energy is lost in the collision. Most collisions, however, are not elastic but rather inelastic. In inelastic collision some of the kinetic energy is lost to the environment in some other form of energy such as heat energy.
