Biology

Bond [772]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer is: B) "All roads lead to Rome"

Citric acid cycle also called tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and Krebs cycle is a central process in cellular respiration. Citric acid cycle that connects carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism so “all the roads” from the different metabolic pathways come to this cycle.

Acetyl-CoA which is produced through the oxidation of pyruvate (pyruvate is a product of glycolysis) enters the cycle which then produces reduced electron carriers NADH, FAD2 and energy molecule ATP. These electron carriers will then pass their electrons into the electron transport chain and, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation, will produce more ATP.

Consider the evidence that explains how physical separation of two populations of a species can cause speciation. What effect do
Tom [10]

Answer:

  • Interruption in the genetic flow between separated groups
  • The emergence of new mutations in each of the groups, and their accumulation in time. Slow and gradual differentiation between populations.
  • Genetic divergence by natural selection and reproductive isolation
  • Prezigotic isolation mechanisms

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation consists of the geographic separation of a continuous genetic background that can give place to two or more new geographically isolated populations. These separations might be due to migration, extinction of geographically intermediate populations, or geological events. In this speciation, some barriers impede genetic interchange, or genetic flux, as the two new groups that are separated can not get together and mate anymore. These barriers might be geographical or ecological.

The process of allopatric speciation involves different steps that affect organisms:

  • The emergence of the barrier.
  • Interruption in the genetic interchange
  • The occurrence of new mutations and their accumulation in time in each population. Slow and gradual differentiation.
  • Genetic divergence by natural selection and reproductive isolation makes it impossible for the two groups to mate even if the barrier disappears.
  • Prezigotic isolation mechanisms will be favored by selection if occurs a secondary contact between the new species in formation.

What stores the most energy?
stich3 [128]
In terms of macromolecules, needed and utilized by organisms to carry out essential metabolic chemical reactions and for maintaining structure would be Lipids.

Lipid based molecules or Fats tend to store the most energy, as breaking chemical bonds connecting fatty acid chains of long hydrocarbons releases quite a bit of energy.
