The right answer is: An organism's characteristics are determined by their genome which is inherited from one generation to the next.

We can give some characteristics of a living organism:

* The ability to stay alive by drawing energy and necessary components into the environment. This ability is based on the metabolism that includes various functions, such as nutrition, respiration, photosynthesis ...;

* The ability to develop according to a certain organization (growth, morphology, cell division, development);

* The ability to reproduce and give birth to other living organisms (vegetative or sexual reproduction);

* The need for a favorable environment to survive (temperature, pressure, oxygen, water ...).

Living matter is based on organic chemistry based on carbon.

The correct answer is: dependent variable.

The graphic shows the citric acid cycle. A diagram of the citric acid cycle is shown. Acetyl C o A enters the citric acid cycle
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming citric acid, and then through redox reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.

Explanation:

Acetyl-CoA(2C) associates with oxalacetate(4C) to form citric acid(6C). Then through redox reactions, CO2 molecules result from decarboxylation (COOH becomes R-(R1)CH-R2). And through dehydrogenation H2 molecules are incorporated in NADH+ in FADH2, resulting in the 4-carbon molecule at the beginning (oxalacetate). That's why it's called a cycle(Kreb's cycle or citric acid cycle)
