ATP is produced during the process of cellular respiration. Which is the order of the steps of cellular respiration?
laiz [17]
The answer is <span>C. glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport</span>

Cellular respiration includes glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain (ETC), in that order. The main function of ETC is a production of ATP.  In this series of oxidation-reduction reactions, electrons from the previous stages of cellular respiration are taken and transported to the oxygen which is the final acceptor of electrons. As the result, water and ATP are produced.

Seema knows the mass of a basketball. What other information is needed to find the ball’s potential energy?
evablogger [386]
I think this is actually a physics question- 
gravitational potential energy = mass*g*height. We know mass and g is constant, so all we need to know is the height of the basketball.

Hope this helps :)

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>recessive</u>.

Explanation:

As the rare inherited trait can pass to some of the children and is suppressed in the rest it is most likely to be transferred by recessive alleles of either of the parent.

A recessive trait can be described as a trait that gets masked by a dominant trait. For a person to show a recessive trait in their phenotype, the genotype of the person must contain two recessive alleles for that trait.
