Nikolay [14]

Answer:

b. carbon dioxide

Explanation:

This metabolic pathway is called the Krebs cycle after the scientist who first discovered it in 1937. The Krebs cycle is further broken down by pyruvic acid, obtained in the glycolysis process. The process proceeds in two stages. The first is the degree of decomposition of the bicarbonate residue.

The Krebs cycle is the main metabolic pathway for the breakdown of organic matter and the production of energy in the form of reduced coenzymes, which will then be incorporated into ATP.

Does social distancing increase or decrease your carbon footprint?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

The carbon footprint is <u>the amount of carbon (in terms of greenhouse gases) being emitted by human activities</u>. In a situation where <u>social distancing is encouraged, human activity would reduce significantly</u>. Very few people will be outside and the causative agents of pollution (anthropogenic) will be significantly reduced. Further, nature would be able to minimize the impacts of pollution when human activities are less than the threshold capacity.

Let's take an example of coronavirus spread globally this year. The social distancing of 2 meters has significantly reduced the number of people going outside. Ultimately, there are fewer automobiles on the roads and a few industries are running. The result is that the air quality index has been significantly improved. For example, in India, people from 300 km away, can see the Himalayan mountain range very clearly (see image attached). This has not happened in decades after modern industrialization.

horsena [70]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteria are a group of single celled organisms that are neither plants or animals.

Bacteria lack cell organelles such as the nucleus and the chlorophyll.

They can be found in many environments and most of them are adapted to survive in extreme environments such as hot-springs where the temperatures are extremely high.

Unlike the plant cell wall, bacterial cell wall has a layer of peptidoglucan which determines their shape. Their cytoplasm contains both DNA and RNA.
