One of the "triggers" proposed for the Cambrian explosion is a dramatic rise in oxygen concentrations that occurred in the ocean
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

1. Oxygen is an effective final electron acceptor in cellular respiration because of its high electronegativity.

2. Organisms that use it as a final electron acceptor can produce more usable energy than organisms that do not use oxygen, but only if it is available.

3. With more available energy, aerobic organisms can grow larger and move faster.

Explanation:

1. Cellular respiration is an aerobic pathway because oxygen is an electron acceptor. This process produces 38 molecules of ATP per glucose. The atomic elements that are positioned at the right of the periodic table have high electronegativities because they tend to be electron acceptors.  

2. The efficiency of energy production of aerobic respiration is much higher compared to the anaerobic respiration because this metabolic pathway (aerobic respiration) can produce 38 molecules of ATPs per glucose molecule, while anaerobic respiration produces only 2 ATPs by glucose.

3. A higher amount of available energy improves the metabolic profile of the organisms with aerobic respiration.

Pretend that you are a carbon atom. Write a creative short story (around two paragraphs) that describes your journey through the
Pani-rosa [81]
<span>I am a Carbon atom and I took birth in the air. I had spend a memorable time in a molecule and there were two very nice oxygen atoms too. I just got into the air and I am very excited that I had my complete incoming box of electrons. I am a carbon atom and I have six electrons. Right now I am in a carbon dioxide molecule and I am just wondering in air. While i was enjoying my journey I waved to my friends like oxygen gas which is a molecule of two oxygen atoms.Oxygen atom is my best friend. I’ve heard stories of becoming solids and many different things when i was too young, but now I just like the air and I am loving it.</span>
