Explanation:

During glycolysis, enzymes act on the substrate, glucose. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm; here, 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules.

Further Explanation:

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP which is produced. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

overall: C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. Electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria.

This forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons flow or re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the electron transport, three molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water...

Glycolysis: occurs in the cytoplasm 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules.
The Kreb's cycle: in the mitochondrial matrix- 6 molecules of CO2 are produced by combining oxygen and the carbon within pyruvate, 2 ATP oxygen molecules, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2.
The electron transport chain, ETC: in the inner mitochondrial membrane, 34 ATP, electrons combine with H+ split from 10 NADH, 4 FADH2, renewing the number of electron acceptors and 3 oxygen; this forms 6 H2O, 10 NAD+, 4 FAD.

Katarina [22]

Answer: Annual high temperatures in the summer have increased over many decades.

Weather describe the state of the atmosphere for a short time period of a given place on the basis of chief atmospheric components like amount of precipitation, sunshine availability, direction and speed of wind, dryness and temperature. A weather represent fluctuations or short term changes in the atmosphere. Example of weather conditions are thunderstorm in hot summer, foggy month in autumn or other weather conditions describing typical region or season. Climate describes the long term atmospheric condition of a given place. Examples of climatic conditions are cold-dry desert and tropical climate.

Annual high temperatures in the summer have increased over many decades describes climate rather than weather because it gives idea about the long term atmospheric conditions of a region instead of a change for a short duration.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

When a jogger starts to run, the rate at which his muscles produce CO2 rises sharply. The CO2 in his blood rises only slightly before he starts to breathe faster and his heart starts beating stronger. Soon his increased rate of CO2 production is balanced by an increased rate of CO2 removal. This would be an example of negative feedback because the jogger's circulatory and respiratory systems are systems regulator.

Explanation:

When an organism increases its partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood, it generates a decrease in the physiological blood pH that triggers the activation of a large number of enzymes and, as a gas, it increases its internal partial pressure in the body and thanks to this it spreads to the outside (environment by means of the lung exchanging it for oxygen) thanks to the fact that all gases ALWAYS diffuse to areas of higher partial pressure towards areas of lower partial pressure. That is why homeostasis, and gas exchange, occurs.
