The energy from cellular respiration comes from food and air. The reactants first cellular respiration are oxygen and glucose. Glucose is a form of sugar and comes from food, and oxygen is found in air.
The main reactants or cellular respiration, as stated above, are oxygen and glucose.
During the first stage of cellular respiration, which takes place in the cytoplasm, a small amount of energy is produced when glucose is broken down into smaller particles.
Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.
Explanation:
The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.
The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.
Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac

Answer:
DNA is also called deoxyribonucleic acid which is made up of two chains which wind around each other to form a double helix model. The 2 DNA strands are also called polynucleotides and they are made up of monomeric units known as nucleotides. These nucleotides are made up of one of four nitrogen-containing nucleobases: cytosine, guanine, adenine and thymine, a phosphate group, and sugar known as deoxyribose.
Nitrogen bases present on the two separate polynucleotides strands are bound together with the help of base pairing (such as adenine with Thymine) and with hydrogen bonds to form double-stranded DNA.
So, adenine in DNA is complementary to thymine.
Answer AND Explanation:
Darwin describes natural selection as a process whereby nature selects those organisms that have favourable characteristics to be parents of the next generation. The individuals possessing the favourable traits are better suited to the prevailing environmental conditions. This enables them to stand a better chance to survive in the struggle for existence due to limited resources.
Answer:
1. Fats contain mostly C-H bonds, it has less oxygen therefore making it a high energy compound
2. mRNA plays a vital role in protein synthesis. It's a single stranded RNA molecule that contains genetic information that can be taken outside the nucleus (unlike DNA which cannot leave the nucleus). Its created during transcrption, and is used during translation to create proteins
