Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots?
Vikentia [17]
Maggots consume dead or decaying organisms so they are classified as a decomposer.

Decomposition is a process by which organic substances, like leaves or dead animals, are broken down into simpler matter.
A lot of different types of organisms, called the decomposers, will consume the organic substances and continue an essential part of the nutrient cycle. These organisms can be both bacteria, fungi but can also be insects.

This is important for recycling the organic matter that occupies space in the biosphere and that way, continues the movement of energy and matter in ecosystems.

I am trying to determine reactants going into the electron transport chain. Is this right?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Yes, this is correct.

Explanation:

  • In each glycolytic pathway, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase produces 1 molecules of NADH as a result of reduction of NAD+.
  • Pyruvate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate to Acetyl CoA producing 1 molecule of NADH per pyruvate oxidized.
  • In Kreb's cycle, isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and malate dehydrogenase reactions produce 1 molecule of NADH each. Furthermore, succinate dehydrogenase reaction produces a single molecule of FADH2 per FAD reduced.
  • Since, we began with 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, we  multiply the above figures by 2 and get a total of 10 NADH and 2 FADH2.
