Brine shrimp live in salt water, but the level of salt in the water where they reside can differ dramatically from day to day or

longer time scales. In very high salt concentrations, a brine shrimp _____ salt across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is _____ relative to the water where it lives. In lower salt concentrations, a brine shrimp _____ salt water across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is _____ relative to the water where it lives.

Answer:

The correct answer is "excretes; hypotonic; absorbs, hypertonic".

Explanation:

Cell's homeostasis is only conserved in an isotonic solution, since cells that are in an hypertonic solution (high salt concentration) tend to loss water, and in hypotonic solution (low salt concentration) tend to absorb water. Brine shrimp lives in waters that are both, hypertonic and hypotonic and has adapted to overcome this issue by excreting and absorbing salt across its gills. In very high salt concentrations, a brine shrimp "excretes" salt across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is "hypotonic" relative to the water where it lives. In lower salt concentrations, a brine shrimp "absorbs" salt water across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is "hypertonic" relative to the water where it lives.

In the absence of oxygen, what is the net gain of ATP for each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis?
Naily [24]

Answer:

2 molecules of ATP

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the anaerobic process (no oxygen required) used in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy. It occurs in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It is the first step of cellular respiration.

Glycolysis is subdivided into two phases: the first phase uses energy (ATP), while the second phase produces it together with pyruvate and NADH.

Two molecules of ATP are required for the first stage of glycolysis, while 4 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules are formed in the second stage.

How do ETS reactions produce ATP?
Norma-Jean [14]

ATP synthesization -  Simple and complex lipids or carbohydrates are used to produce ATP through redox reactions. After the hydrolysis of complex carbohydrates, glucose and fructose are formed and the triglycerides are metabolized to form glycerol and fatty acids. ATP is then synthesized by oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation during the energy production with in the living organisms. ATP production usually takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.  The important pathways by which ATP is generated are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (or the Kreb’s cycle), and the electron transport chain (or the oxidative phosphorylation pathway).  In these three cycles of  cellular respiration  adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is converted  to ATP and energy is released  from molecules.
