Answer;

C6H12O6 + 6O2  6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Explanation;

- Mitochondria are tiny organelles inside cells that are involved in releasing energy from food, a process called cellular respiration.

-During cellular respiration nutrients such as glucose are broken down in the presence of oxygen to release energy in form of ATP and water together with carbon dioxide as by products. The energy released may be utilized by the cells to drive cellular processes, such as growth and movement.

Chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mole

There are mainly two molecules that function as genetic material in living organisms.

These are ribonucleic acid(RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA).

The organisms having DNA as genetic material require packaging of DNA as it is a long polymer of deoxyribonucleotides.

In the case of human beings, the length of DNA in a cell is approximately 2.2 meters which is very large as compared to the size of the nucleus( approximately 10^-6 meters).

So, the DNA has to be made compact for it to be present inside the nucleus of a cell.

Therefore, the DNA present inside the nucleus of a cell undergoes coiling and compaction through several stages before finally becoming a chromosome, which is shown in the adjoining diagram.

Thus, chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules.

charle [14.2K]

Halophilic bacteria possess a pigment related to the plant's chlorophyll.

<h3>Halophilic bacteria</h3>

They are bacteria that live in high salt environments. They have a certain feature that enables them to pump out salts in order to maintain normal osmotic conditions in their bodies.

Halophilic bacteria are equipped with bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin. These enable them to photosynthesize like plants. and generate the much-needed ATP for pumping out salts.
