Answer:

3 (Cells carry out the respiration process)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a metabolic (catabolic) process common to all living things as all living things need energy for their life processes.

Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by breaking down organic molecules in presence or absence of oxygen (aerobic or anaerobic) resulting in the release of Carbondioxide (CO2), water and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Food molecules (containing stored energy in their chemical bonds) absorbed after digestion are broken down and the energy within their molecules are freed. This freed energy in form of ATP, is used to power the organism's movement and physiological functions.

Note that, ATP is an energy carrying molecule and a usable form of energy by cells. This is so because ATP releases energy quickly. Energy is released from ATP when the end phosphate (Pi) is removed to become ADP (adenosine diphosphate), which is a low energy molecule.

Aerobic cellular respiration consists of Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation. A total of 38 ATP molecules is produced in the cytosol of prokaryotes while a total of 36 ATP molecules is produced in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.

Which of the following statements about a prokaryotic cell is NOT true?
Gemiola [76]

The right option is; A. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus

''Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus'' is the statement about prokaryotic cells that is NOT true.

Prokaryotic cells are cells that lack a true nucleus and some other cell organelles. Prokaryotic cells are found in unicellular organisms called prokaryotes. Examples of prokaryotes are; Bacteria and Archaea. The components of prokaryotic cells include plasma membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, nucleoid, ribosomes, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Most of the prokaryotic’s DNA (genetic material) is located in a middle area of the cell (nucleoid), and it contains a single large loop known as a circular chromosome.

The ____________ functions as a gateway through which chemicals and small particles, such as ____________ enter or leave the cel
Vilka [71]

Answer: cell membrane

such as water, micro-organism

physical process

simple diffusion, osmosis and filtration

such as potasssium permaganate in water,urea a liver waste diffuses from the body and the kidney help in filtering it out

physiological processs

active transport, phagocytosis and pinocytosis

such as soduim-potassium pump, exocytosis

Explanation:  transportation in and out of cell is done in different ways listed above but a barrier to this movement is the cell membrane which is an outer covering of the cell. it protect the cell and only some materials can penetrate the cell membrane e.g micro-organism, water e.t.c. the various physical and physiological processes are the various ways substance  cna be liquid, solid or gas are transported within or outside the  cell e.g food
