What was produced as a result of the human genome project

Why is cellular respiration important? Multiple Choice It produces oxygen gas, which is essential to cell functions. It breaks d

trapecia [35]

Answer: (c) It generates ATP, which cells can use to do work.

(d) It generates chemical gradients, which have potential energy.

Explanation:

The overall process of Cellular respiration is the aerobic break down of organic compounds (food) with the release of CO2, water and energy in form of ATP which drives most cellular work.

Organic compound + oxygen --------> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP + heat)

In cellular respiration during the break down of food in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, chemical energy (NADH and FADH) are extracted from each cellular process and transported to the electron transport chain built in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The chemical energy harvested from food is transformed into a proton-motive force, a gradient of H+ across the membrane. When this H+ election fall from their gradient via ATP synthase, Chemiosmosis couples this proton motive force to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP.

Silent or missense mutations are small-scale mutations that occur when

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

c. a single nucleotide is substituted with no effect

on the amino acid sequence.

Explanation:

silent mutations occur when the change of the dna

sequence within protein - coding portion of a gene

does not affect the sequence of amino acids that

make up the protein. this change typically takes

place at the third position of the codon also known

as the wobble position.

What hormones are produced by the thyroid and parathyroid glands? Explain the function of each.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

hope this helps:)

Explanation:

The thyroid gland uses iodine from food to make two thyroid hormones that regulate the way the body uses energy. The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands located behind the thyroid gland. The parathyroid glands produce a substance (parathyroid hormone) that helps control the amount of calcium in the blood.

Which of these is a basic unit of macroevolution?

hodyreva [135]

The basic unit of macro-evolution is SPECIE.
Macro-evolution refers to the theory of evolution in which changes that occur at or above the level of specie recognizes the need to better understand the patterns and processes which operate at the specie and higher levels within a hierarchical framework. Macro evolution is an evolutionary phenomenon, which can include any of the following: origination of new designs, large scale events such as extinction, broad trend and major transitions.
