Answer:
a, e, f, g
Explanation:
e. An increase in the number of predators in a community correlates with a decrease in the number of grazers (sea urchins in this case).
a. Species diversity generally increases in marine reserves.
f. Organism size increased by about 30% after the establishment of this reserve.
g. Kelp forest recovery in marine reserves is likely due to an increase in predators.
The biosynthesis of fatty acids and lipids meets two imperatives in the
cell :
- supply of fatty acids necessary for the synthesis of structural lipids;
- storage of energy.
The synthesis of fatty acids goes through a dehydration step during its synthesis. and its catabolism goes through a hydration stage, which shows the importance of H2O molecules to build lipids (even cholesterol).
Synthesis of the fatty acid:
firstly, acetyl-ACP and malonyl-ACP were condensed, followed by reduction of acetoacetyl-ACP to β-hydroxybutyryl-ACP, followed by dehydration of β-hydroxyacyl-ACP, and finally reduction of the double bond by NADPH + H
Catabolism:
The reverse steps will occur: a beta oxidation, a hydration of the molecule, and finally another oxidation.
Answer:
1) Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same in size and shape and control the same characteristics; occur in pairs in higher animals and plants
2) Internal fertilization is a mating pattern in which the male and female come close together, the male introduces the sperm into the body of the female, and fertilization occurs. It is practiced by mammals like goat, sheep etc
3) Pollination is the transfer of pollen from male to female cones in gymnosperms, or from anther to stigma in flowering plants. It is effected by insects, birds, bats and the wind.
4) Zygote is the result of fertilization in which two gametes have fused together; often simply called a fertilized egg.
Answer: (c) It generates ATP, which cells can use to do work.
(d) It generates chemical gradients, which have potential energy.
Explanation:
The overall process of Cellular respiration is the aerobic break down of organic compounds (food) with the release of CO2, water and energy in form of ATP which drives most cellular work.
Organic compound + oxygen --------> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP + heat)
In cellular respiration during the break down of food in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, chemical energy (NADH and FADH) are extracted from each cellular process and transported to the electron transport chain built in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The chemical energy harvested from food is transformed into a proton-motive force, a gradient of H+ across the membrane. When this H+ election fall from their gradient via ATP synthase, Chemiosmosis couples this proton motive force to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP.
