Answer: During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose
Explanation:
Answer:
In eukaryotes, thousands of chemical reactions are able to take place in separate compartments called organelles.
Explanation:
Organelles are specific cellular structures that are the means of compartmentalizing the various functions that occur within cells.
Examples of organelles and their functions are:
- <u>Nucleus</u>: contains DNA and in it occur the replication of this molecule and its transcription into RNA.
- <u>Rough endoplasmic reticulum</u>: protein synthesis and conjugation of these molecules occurs.
- <u>Mitochondrion</u>: houses all oxidative phosphorylation reactions and the electron transport chain for ATP synthesis to occur.
The organelles are then the structures that allow the development of the multiple functions that a cell has.
The other options are not correct because:
- <em><u>Bacteria</u></em><em> is a prokaryotic organism.
</em>
- <em><u>Prokaryote</u></em><em> refers to simple organisms that lack organelles.
</em>
- <em><u>Proteins</u></em><em> are biomolecules that allow the structure and function of living beings.</em>
