Answer:
Amino acids
Explanation:
Proteins are made up of amino acids which come together to form polypeptide chains.
Answer:
Explanation:
Biological membranes have three primary functions: (1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell; (2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the
The correct answer here is C. A molecule that has both polar and
nonpolar regions is called ampipathic. The polar end of the molecule is
water-loving, or hydrophilic, and the nonpolar end of the molecule will
be water-repelling, or hydrophobic. This means the molecules are able to
connect both to other water molecules, and to molecules of other
substances.
Answer:
1. Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
3. 36 ATPs
4. 2 ATPs
Explanation:
According to the diagram attached to this question, the process of cellular respiration is described. Based on whether OXYGEN is present or not, cellular respiration can be divided into two:
- Aerobic respiration is the respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen. As shown in the top process, aerobic respiration starts with glycolysis → krebs cycle → Electron transport chain (ETC). At the end of these three steps, 36 ATP molecules results.
- Anaerobic respiration is the respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen. As described in the bottom process of the diagram, anaerobic respiration starts with glycolysis and enters alcoholic or lactic acid fermentation depending on which product is formed (alcohol or lactic acid). At the end of the process, only 2 ATP molecules is synthesized.
The correct answer is emphysema.
Emphysema is the enlargement of air sacs in the lungs.
It is a long-term, progressive disease of the lungs that primarily causes shortness of breath. People who have emphysema, their air sacs in the lungs (alveoli) is damaged. Over a period of time, the inner walls of the air sacs weaken and rupture creating larger spaces instead of many small ones. Normally, the lung tissue holds these small airways called bronchioles, open, allowing air to leave the lungs on exhalation. However, when the lung tissue is damaged like in the case of emphysema, these airway collapse, making it difficult for the lungs to empty and the air (gases) becomes trapped in the alveoli thus causing impaired gas exchange.
