Answer:
C. ATP is generated
Explanation:
The Entner-Doudoroff pathway is one of the three glycolytic pathways that breakdown glucose into pyruvate. The Entner-Doudoroff pathway is the most common glycolytic pathway in microbes present in the soil such as <em>Rhizobium, Azotobacter,</em> etc.
The Entner-Doudoroff pathway forms glucose 6-phosphate from glucose which in turn is oxidized into 6-phosphogluconate. The 6-phosphogluconate finally forms pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate through a series of reactions. The glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate can enter the Embden-Meyerhof pathway to form one more molecule of pyruvate. During the Entner-Doudoroff pathway, one molecule of ATP and one NADPH are formed along with the formation of one molecule of each pyruvate and glyceraldehyde.
True because the surface of the water table may vary due to seasonal change
<span>The trick here is to understand the definition of each of the cellular transport or function mechanisms listed. These are some interesting (and strange) analogies!
Facilitated Diffusion
This is when a mechanism assists in diffusing (spreading) some material into an environment. The dog on the wagon going through a spring loaded door would shoot it out into the environment. This is an odd analogy but Point 3 would be the one.
Active Transport
Is when energy is expended to transport molecules somewhere against a concentration gradient or some other barrier. Examples include transporting molecules across a cell wall. The best analogy is the dog being dragged into a bathtub (Point 1).
Phagocytosis
This is when a larger cell consumes a molecule often like eating. This matches to point 2 - the child eating the doughnut.
Passive Diffusion
Is when a concentration of molecules naturally diffuse into an environment. This suits point 5 - the crowded room full of people.
Pinocytosis
Is the budding of cell membranes to consume liquid in the surrounding environment. I guess a woman drinking tea is the closest analogy listed (Point 4).</span>
<span>This behavior is an example of B. overproduction. The frog lays thousands of eggs, which is much more than it needs, or would need in perfect conditions. However, most of those eggs doesn't survive, and little frogs are never born in that case. This is why it has to have a lot of eggs so as to ensure that a decent number of offspring survives so as to continue the species.</span>
