In order for an impulse to cross the synaptic gap between
the neurons, the impulse must be converted into a chemical signal as this will
allow it to exert effects and to be able to travel in distances such as having
to cross the synaptic gap between the neurons.
Albinism is a recessive trait characterized by an absence of pigment melanin responsible for skin and hair color. Actually, albinism is caused by a defect in gene for enzyme which synthesizes melanin. The central dogma of molecular biology explains that the sequence of DNA specifies the sequence of mRNA, which, further, specifies codes for the sequence of proteins. Since a gene is a segment of DNA, altered gene will cause altered mRNA which will cause altered protein. Thus, <span>defect in gene for enzyme which synthesizes melanin will cause the absence of melanin and consequently, albinism.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is - Control microcosms did not contain living moss, while experimental microcosms did contain living moss.
Explanation:
The difference between the control microcosms and experiment Microcosms is, the presence of the living moss in the experimental group whereas the control group does not contain living moss.
The independent variable in this research setting is the presence or absence of the living moss and for the control group, the mosses are filtered out and only added the water.
Answer:
<em>Aerobic respiration occurs in the steps:</em>
Glycolysis--> respiration--> ETC
<em>(see images for flow chart)</em>
<em />
Explanation:
The mitochondria inside the cell's cytoplasm is an organelle. It consists of a gel-like material comprising an outer membrane, an inner membrane, and a matrix. In mitochondria, cells break down sugars in the form of glucose during aerobic respiration, in the presence of oxygen...
This occurs via glycolysis, the Kreb's cyle, and the electron transport chain (ETC)
C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide+ water+ energy
Answer:
Reduce or stop the production of energy molecule i.e ATP
Explanation:
Proton is an essential ingredient to carry out light reactions successfully and the proton requirement is fulfilled through the proton gradient formed along the membrane. A chemical that blocks the flow of electrons thereby hindering the flow of proton will adversely affect the electron transport chain reactions thereby causing reduced/no conversion of ADP to ATP.
