What’s the function of cellular respiration
mamaluj [8]
Cellular respiration is the process by which cells in plants and animals break down sugar and turn it into energy, which is then used to perform work at the cellular level. The purpose of cellular respiration is simple: it provides cells with the energy they need to function. If living things could not get the energy they need out of food, it would be absolutely worthless. All living things would eventually die, no matter the quality and amount of food.

Based on the name of this organism, what can you predict about its morphology?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

<em>S. aureus</em> is spherical and arranged in clusters

Explanation:

<em>Staphylococcus aureus </em>is a gram positive bacteria that forms a part of our body microbiota. It is usually found on skin and in upper respiratory tract. The genus name of this organism is <em>Staphylococcus </em>which tells a lot about its morphology. Cocci or coccus is the name given to bacteria who appear spherical. Staph points out to their arrangement which is in clusters. Had it been <em>Streptococcus</em>, it would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in long chains. Similarly, <em>Diplococcus</em> would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in groups of two. Hence from the name <em>Staphylococcus aureus </em> we can say that it is spherical and arranged in clusters.
