What is energy coupling?

Biology
1 answer:
vagabundo [1.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

c: the use of energy released from an exergonic reaction to drive an endergonic reaction.

Explanation:

<em>Energy coupling is a process involving two reactions whereby one of the reactions generate energy, and the generated energy is used to drive the other reaction. </em>

A reaction during which energy is generated is referred to as exergonic reaction while one in which energy is consumed is known as endergonic reaction. Hence, energy coupling can also be viewed as a process linking exergonic and endergonic reactions whereby the energy released in the former is used up by the latter.

A good example is illustrated by the light dependent and light independent reactions of photosynthesis during which the ATP and NADPH produced during the light dependent reaction is used to fix carbon dioxide in the light independent reaction.

<em>The correct answer is C.</em>

What is the function of ciliary muscles ?
Hatshy [7]
<span>Assists in the accommodation of light from the external environment that penetrates thru our pupil and proceeds in our lens.


Evolutionarily, the eye structure was designed to be at the head specfically superior to the nose, posterior to the skill and distal to the brain and is anteriorly plastered to avoid environmental threats like predators, natural disasters and etc. This way in a functionalist view, the eye has a wider range in getting information from one's environment especially in humans since the eyes in people are the most efficient and powerful sensory organs than the others. In a structural view, the eyes are build in two not only to be able to see one's environment and maximise it but also because the eyes have binocular disparity this means that the eyes will be able to locate an object more cearly and that when one eye is dysfunctional the other can assist the visual imagery of the individual.<span>

Why does natural selection act on phenotype rather than genotype of an organism?
Nimfa-mama [501]
By definition, the phenotype is the actual physical manifestation of an organism's genotype, so the way an organism looks or behaves is what is being selected on. For example, if ladybugs have red (R) shells or yellow (r) shells and ladybug-eating birds only eat the ones with red shells, any red-shelled ladybugs will be selected against based only on their phenotype. The birds do not know whether each bug is RR, Rr, of rr, so phenotype, not genotype, is what is affected by natural selection.
