4 0

Answer:

Similarities between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

Both mitochondria and chloroplast consists of DNA , have two membranes, have fluids inside them and convert energy.

Difference between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

They have different number of compartments, have different functions, and are involved in different energy processes.

Explanation:

Difference in Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

a) Chloroplast is found in plants and unicellular organism and Mitochondria is found  all cells.

b) Chloroplast converts solar energy into chemical energy while Mitochondria converts one form of chemical energy into other form of chemical energy

c) Chloroplast is involved in photosynthesis while mitochondria is involved in cellular respiration.

d) Chloroplast has three parts i) Thylakoid ii) stroma  and iii) granum while mitochondria has three parts i) Critsa ii) Matrix

Similarities between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-

Both mitochondria and chloroplast consists of DNA , have two membranes, have fluids inside them and convert energy.

Select the true statement(s) about chemiosmosis in eukaryotes. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true statements,
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a. Chemiosmosis requires the formation of an electron gradient.

b. In aerobic eukaryotes, chemiosmosis leads to the production of water and up to 34 ATP.

c. In eukaryotes, chemiosmosis requires that protons diffuse through ATP synthase in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Explanation:

Chemiosmosis theory has been proposed for understanding the procedure for the production of ATP in eukaryotic organisms. In the process of chemiosmosis the movement of ions takes place across the semi-permeable membrane according to the concentration gradient. In the whole procedure the electrons move through various complexes and electron acceptors and finally reach to the final electron acceptor, the Oxygen. Due to the movement of electrons the energy is released which is used to pump the protons across the membrane.

Discuss how heat stroke, acquired during extreme physical exercise, disrupts the feedback loop and the impact this disruption ha
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Heat stroke is acquired during extreme physical exercise when the environment is hot, strenuous activity, excess clothing and tight clothing, drinking alcohol and smoking during a hot season or environment,when you are dydrated and not drinking water. Some medication and age also add to having heat stroke.

It causes disrupts in the feedback loop because it doesn't form a circular chain. It can be both positive and negative chain. Feed back loop is known to be either negative or positive channel or pathway formed by an effects.

The impact and disruption it has on human physiology

1.it causes brain damage

2.it leads to death

3.it also causes vital organ damage

Explanation:when the environment is hot, it makes you heat up fast when exercising and increase your temperature because the atmospheric temperature is high,and when exercising in this condition without air conditioner to cool your surroundings it leads to heat stroke.

When wearing heaving clothing and tight clothing during physical exercise it makes you to not lose moisture and makes air not easily passed to you, this causes your body to heat up fast and thereby causing heat stroke.

When dydrated and not drinking water causes you to overwork you body and not cool it down, it leads to heat stroke.

Heat stroke causes brain damage, leads to death when not taken immediately or rush to the health center or hospital.

What happens in crossing over? Why is it important for sexually reproducing organisms, and what is one of the consequences of er
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Crossing over increases the genetic variation  

Errors in crossover formation result in chromosomal rearrangements (duplications and deletions) and may also cause chromosome nondisjunction

Explanation:

Crossing over, also known as recombination, refers to the exchange of genetic material (DNA) between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Crossing over increases the genetic variation of the resulting gametes, allowing different genetic combinations to be passed from parents to offspring. Unequal crossing over is a type of error associated with chromosomal duplication and/or deletion events. Unequal crossing over occurs when homologous sequences are not paired precisely. Moreover, errors in crossing over may also cause chromosome nondisjunction, thereby leading to aneuploidies.

In some plants, flower color, or __________ of the plant, is dependent upon environmental factors such as the acidity of soil. A
olga2289 [7]
The answer would be d) phenotype. The phenotype is the physical characteristic while the genotype is the combination of alleles from the parent--basically the part that you can't really see. The color of a flower is prominent, so that would be its phenotype. An organism's phenotype can also include certain behavioral characteristics as well, not just the way it looks! Hope this helped :)
