A toxin has been developed that specifically denatures respiratory enzymes found in the matrix of the mitochondria. What will ha

ppen to an animal that ingests the toxin? anaerobic respiration will not take place, and the animal will lose small amounts of atp. aerobic respiration will not take place, and the animal will lose large amounts of atp. the light-dependent reactions will not take place, and the animal will lose small amounts of atp. the light-independent reactions will not take place, and the animal will lose large amounts of atp.

Answer: Aerobic respiration will not take place and the animal will lose large amounts of ATP.

Explanation:

Mitochondria is the powerhouse that converts product of glycolysis that occurs in the cytoplasm into energy and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. In the presence of oxygen (aerobic), products of glycolysis such as pyruvate enters the mitochondria, joins the kreb cycle and the electron transport chain yielding a large amount of energy or ATP.

Aerobic respiration that yield large amounts of ATP strictly occus in the mitochondrial matrix whereas anearobic respiration occurs in the cytoplasm.

You are a farmer who has been noticing that many of your crops are getting destroyed as a result of pests. You hear about a new
quester [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

the advantages include:

disease and drought resistant crops that require fewer environmental resources for them to grow

higher yields harvested as the crops are not attacked by pests resulting in humans receiving more food as well as generating more money from the trading of their crops

increased supply of food at a cheaper life and the crops could have a longer shelf life

crops bound to be healthy as they ae not constantly treated by pesticides that could harm people

reduce the use of pesticides that might be a great move for the betterment of the food supply

they reduce the use of toxins that could harm the environment as well as the animals and people

disadvantages

unexpected or harmful genetic changes that could result in humans health being threatened

the process of genetically modifying the crops is quite expensive

due to the plants becoming pest resistant the pests are bound to have no food hence could die leading to some helpful pests such as beetles or ladybugs that actually benefit the environment going extinct

the production of genetically modified crops results in the disruption of biodiversity as you are favouring one specific organism hence resulting in the disruption of the natural gene flow

the crops are modified hence biotech foods may be a threat to the human health

sdas [7]
Hypothesis: Daphnias can increase in population at a room
temperature, rather than a colder or warmer temperature.

Control group will be at a room temperature water. The experimental will be tested in cold and warmer waters.

Independent variable: change of water temperature.

The data will be the amount of growth in which the water fleas population increases or decreases, a bar graph would work.
