Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.
As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

Answer:
a. the RNA polymerase undergoes abortive initiation prior to promoter clearance
Explanation:
In eukaryotes the 3' end of the mRNA is polyadenylated to protect the mRNA from degradation.
In eukaryotes, a modified guanine cap is added to the 5' end of the mRNAd to protects the transcript from being broken down.
Most bacterial RNA transcripts do not undergo splicing.
The nucleosome is the basic unit of chromatin repeat in eukaryotes.
Drilling for fossil fuels.
This is because the main fossil fuels are not typically found in the rainforest. To also back up this claim, use the process of elimination.
The last choice, demand for rainforest products, is obviously incorrect as that would mean expansion into the rainforest to gather said products.
Shortage of food sources wouldn't be the correct answer either as food sources aren't typically found in the rainforest among popular demand and food can be shipped into the country as well.
Overcrowding in cities would also lead to expansion, where to can differ based on location but to rainforests or anywhere surrounding the area would be preferred or desirable.
Hope this helps!
The smallest thing they study is cells, i think!
hoped this helped!!
