The best answer is ATP (Adenosine triphosphate).

Metabolism is a term referring to the overall processes by which  energy is obtained by an organism. In man it begins with the digestion process, and ends with cellular respiration.

Food molecules are broken down into their monomer units through the digestive process. Carbohydrates are broken into glucose units. Glucose is taken in by cells and used in cellular respiration to produce ATP, which is the form of energy that cells use.

Cellular respiration involves three stages namely glycolysis , Krebs cycle and electron transport chain.  From one molecule of glucose, the number of ATP molecules generated through cellular respiration  is 36 to 38 molecules.

Answer:

option c punctuated equilibrium

Explanation:

Punctuated equilibrium occurs in a process whereby evolutionary changes occurs in some organisms in a rapid burst of time rather the conceived gradual changes that occurs over a long period of time. this burst of time might be in about 500,000 years. It is assumed that the organism has maintained/lives in stasis for a long period without a need for change, but then, once the change takes place (most of the time, due to an environmental factor), the organism quickly adapts to its new environment with this new adaptation.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 1, 2, and 4

Explanation:

Option no 1 is true because before maturity, the mosquitoes will not be able to cause malaria and will be easier to kill.

Option no 2 is true because in order to ensure a safe control, the Brachiola gambiae shouldn't be dangerous to other animals or insects.

Option No 3 is not true because Mosquito larvae will contain the male larvae also. As the male larvae are not harmful, hence their growth shouldn't be stopped or they should not be killed.

Option No 4 is correct because before applying any controlling measures for a problem, it should always be kept in mind that it should not have negative effects on other food systems.

Answer No 5 is false because as the females Anopheles are harmful, they should be killed. The male Anopheles are not harmful hence, they should not be killed.

How does cellular respiration occur in animals? Please include the formula. Thank you very much. I need it bad because I'm in sc
Crank

The formula for aerobic respiration in animals can be shown by the equation below. A glucose molecule is broken down by enzymes in the presence of oxygen to make carbon dioxide, water, and ATPs. Carbon IV oxide is expelled by the lungs.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + 38 ATP

This process occurs in two stages. Glycolysis (that does not require oxygen) occurs in the cytoplasm of cells. The products of the glucose breakdown in this stage is pyruvate, CO₂ and 2 net ATPs. The pyruvate is then converted to acetyl-CoA that enters the second stage called Citric/Krebs cycle. This second stage happens in the mitochondria. The products are CO₂, H₂O and 34 ATPs

Brainliest involved!! Help please and thank you
Alecsey [184]

Answer

D

Glycolysis is the process, which occurs in cytoplasm of cell. This is the process which involves the breakdown of glucose to pyruvate. Citric acid cycle and beta oxidation of fatty acids occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, electron transport chain and  oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the oxysomes. So, it is NOT a.

It has to be 2 and 3, which is D.
