Explanation:

the Krebs cycle occurs on the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of chemical energy from the oxidation of pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis. pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses carbon dioxide to form acetyl-CoA, a 2-carbon molecule

The different ways pulse rate can be used to measure fitness?

Stels [109]

A normal heart rate ranges between 60-100 beats per minute. The higher the heart rate is, the faster the blood is pumping through the heart. When exercising a persons heart will be higher because the brain and the muscles in the body are in need of oxygen so the heart needs to pump faster in order to sustain optimal performance.

Contrast the genetic content and the origin of sister versus nonsister chromatids during their earliest appearance in prophase I

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Sister chromatids are identical forms of chromatids of a chromosomes. They are mostly formed by semi-conservative replication of DNA molecule of a single chromosome.Thus they are like 'photocopies' of original parent chromosomes; joined together at the Centromere.

They are exactly similar in all ramification; with the same gene and allele compositions..

However; slight differences arise between the two identical sisters due to mutation from errors at replication;and also in the length of telomere repeats.

Non-sister chromatids are dissimilar forms of chromatids of a chromosomes formed when each half of a chromosome at fertilisation from separate haploid sex-cells, of each parent. fused.They contain different genetic composition;because they are not on the same homologous chromosomes.Therefore crossing -over ensure variation.

However, they are genetically similar in composition; if they are contained in homologous chromosomes. This is because Synapsis of bivalent of these chromosomes allow genetic material to be shared by chromosomal crossing-over between the non-sister chromatids on the chromosomes ; therefore identical genetic characteristics are shared .

Which organism releases a toxin that causes muscle relaxation?

valentinak56 [21]

Clostridium botulinum is an anaerobic, spore-forming, bacterium organism that releases a toxin that causes muscle relaxation. The toxin that is released is a neurotoxic protein: Botulinum toxin (BTX) and is produced only in an anaerobic environment. This toxin is used as a a medicine to treat overactive muscle movement.

Which is NOT a PROTOZOAN? A flagellate B ciliate C sporozoan algae D algae

Colt1911 [192]

The answer is D, algae.

—Evidence—
•] Protozoan definition: a single-celled microscopic animal of a group of phyla of the kingdom Protista, such as an amoeba, flagellate, ciliate, or sporozoan.
•] it does not feature algae, therefore it’s D.
