Answer:

a fuel for cellular respiration and a starting material for making other organic molecules.

Explanation:

Plants have the ability to produce sugars by the process of photosynthesis. Plants can convert the inorganic CO2 from the air into the organic nutrients such as sugars. Plants store sugars so that they can serve as a source of ATP for the cells as and when required. The sugars enter the process of cellular respiration and are oxidized into CO2 and H2O. In addition, the energy of chemical bonds of the sugars is used to form ATP molecules.

Plants also use sugars to synthesize other organic molecules. For example, several intermediates of Kreb's cycle can serve as precursors for the synthesis of amino acids. Amino acids are joined together to form different proteins.

What would happen if the cell membrane only had 1 layer of phospholipids?

Fofino [41]

Answer:

If phospholipid bilayer diffusion is normally negligible, there will be tissues (largely lacking in transporters that may be expressed elsewhere) which, despite the relative functional similarity of their phospholipids, are very poor at taking up drugs: the blood–brain [33], blood–testis [34], and blood–retina

Inga [223]

Answer:

Natural Selection

Explanation:

In natural selection process of evolution, traits that are essential for an individual to be fit enough to survive under environmental stress become dominant.

Since the flowers are of blue or yellow color, it is essential for a bee to be able enough to perceive the blue and yellow color. Hence, the eyes of bee with time have evolved to perceive these two color so that they can pollinate flower.

A technique that uses measurement of radioactive isotopes to evaluate the activity of the brain is

Furkat [3]

<span>The answer is nuclear imaging. A subject is asked to take in a radionuclide (radioactive isotopes) and as the radioactive material passes though the body, it continually emits radiation that is detectable by an instrument such as a gamma camera. Examples of nuclear imaging techniques are SPECT and PET.</span>
