Why must all living things carry on respiration

Biology
2 answers:
Sloan [31]4 years ago

<u>Answer:</u>

To break down food molecules and turn it into energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

All living organisms must carry on releasing the energy stored in food molecules through a chemical process known as the respiration.

The main purpose of respiration by the living things is to break down the sugar (glucose) and turn it into energy, in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is then used to perform some essential activities of life.

The main reason is to convert glucose into energy. When organisms consume food, the body targets glucose molecules for conversion to energy. However, respiration must first occur to transform these molecules into adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.

Hope this helps :)

Nadusha1986 [10]

Since, the options have not been given, the question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

When Alexander Fleming discovered what was to become penicillin, he noticed that wherever mold was growing on plates of Staphylococus sp., there was a zone of inhibition of bacterial growth around the fungi. What type of symbiotic relationship does this describe?

A) Amensalistic

B) Cooperative

C) Mutualistic

Answer: A) Amensalistic

Explanation:

Amensalism is a symbiotic relationship between organisms that belong to different species, in this one organism is destroyed or inhibited in terms of growth and distribution but the other organism remains unaffected.

The given situation is the result of amensalism this is because of the fact that penicillin contains a fungal formulation which is likely to destroy the bacterial cells of Staphylococus sp. by creating a zone of inhibiting. Here, the fungal species will remain unaffected but the bacterial species will be inhibited.
