Something that can be broken down by living organisms is?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is "biodegrading". Biodegrading is fungi, or fungus that breaks down fertilizers or chemical composition giving it energy. Theres also animals that break down composition or consume dead matter for example a vulture, they play a big role in the ecosystem by consuming dead matter and making the area cleaner for other organisms.

Hope this helps!

Epigenetics may be defined as changes in the expression of a gene or set of genes by _______ and _______.

nataly862011 [7]

Epigenetics is the study of how DNA methylation and alterations to chromosomal proteins affect a gene or group of genes express themselves. For changes in a gene's expression, both of these are need.

In a biological process called DNA methylation, methyl groups are added to the DNA molecule. A DNA segment's activity can be altered by methylation without the sequence changing. DNA methylation usually inhibits transcription of genes when it occurs in a gene promoter.

Epigenetics literally translates to "along with changes in genetic sequence." Any procedure that modifies gene activity without altering DNA sequence and results in modifications that can be passed on to daughter cells is now included in the term. Is called Epigenetics.

The mechanism by which the end product of a metabolic pathway inhibits an earlier step in the pathway is most precisely describe

defon

Answer:

The mecanism is termed as feedback inhibition.

Explanation:

In an enzyme catalyzed sequential reaction the end product of that reaction inhibits the activity of the activity of the enzyme catalyzing the ist step This type of regulation is called Feed back regulation or feedback inhibition.

The main function of human body is to maintain the homeostasis of the all the components it contains.When the end product of an ongoing enzyme catalzsed sequential reaction is produced in a high lebel at that time to maintain its own homeostatis that end product inhibits the functioning of the enzyme catalzsing the ist step of that biochemical reaction.

For Example Cytidine tri phosphate inhibits the activity of aspartate transcarbamoylase catalyzing the de novo biosynthesis pathway of pyrimidine metabolism.

Evaluate whether a sea beeze could occur night

Natalija [7]

Answer:

During the night the water releases it's heat much slower causing the air over the water to be warmer than the air over the land. This ends up working the same as the sea breeze only this time the lower pressure is over the sea and the air then moves from the land.

Please help I can’t figure this out

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process in which cells use carbon dioxide and water to make glucose in the presence of sunlight.

Respiration is the process in which glucose molecules are utilized to release energy in the form of ATP.

Explanation:

Ans1- Respiration in cells occurs in mitochondria. Cells gain energy in the form of ATP. Conversion of glucose in the form of ATP is known as cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration can take place either in presence of oxygen(aerobic respiration) or in absence of oxygen(anaerobic respiration ).

Before entering into cellular respiration glucose molecule has to be converted into pyruvic acid. This process in known as GLYCOLYSIS.

Anaerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria when oxygen is not present. It is known as fermentation.It is not effective process to produce ATP from glucose as in this process only 4 ATP can be released.

Aerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria in presence of oxygen. This is effective pathway to gain ATP as it releases 36 ATP from 1 glucose molecule.

Ans2- All cells which has photosynthetic pigments are able to use photosynthesis. Example- Blue green algae, cynobacteria etc.

Ans3- We can see different shades of green colors of plants and leaves because of different types of chlorophyll present in plant. Chlorophyll are of 6 types in plant. Their types are based on the lights they absorb. Two main types of chlorophylls are chl a and chl b.

Ans4- Both plant and animal cells have mitochondria. In plant also they need energy. To get ATP from breakdown of glucose respiration is occur in plant also.

Ans5-In photosynthesis glucose is formed from water and carbon di oxide. 6 carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water are used to make 1 molecule of glucose. Water and carbon di oxide are reactant in this process.

Ans6 - Cells without oxygen can burn glucose to release energy. This process is known as Anerobic respiration/ fermentation. But the outcome of energy is lower than aerobic respiration. ( ANS1)

Ans7- In the process of photosynthesis reactants are water and carbon di oxide. Oxygen produced released in the form of gas along with carbon di oxide.

Ans8- The enzymatic reaction of respiration occurs in mitochondria. Krebs cycle occurs in the matrix of mitochondria.( ETC electron transport chain) to release ATP occurs in cristae of inner membrane of mitochondria.

Ans9- Plants make glucose through photosynthesis . In presence of sunlight plants use carbon dioxide and water to make sugar.
