Answer:

In cellular respiration, glycolysis is the first step in which glucose is oxidized into pyruvate. The electrons released by glucose during its oxidation is taken by NAD⁺ which gets reduced to NADH in glycolysis.

This NADH then again get oxidized by transferring the electron to oxygen through an electron transport chain present in mitochondria. This electron transfer is necessary for ATP generation for cell and regeneration of NAD⁺ that can again be used in glycolysis.

So when a chemical used that prevents NADH from being oxidized then no electron will be transferred to oxygen so oxygen will not be consumed and no ATP will be generated and also no NAD⁺ will be available for glycolysis.

Therefore all the metabolic process will stop and no consumption of oxygen will occur which will lead to the death of the seedling.

Which of the following statements is true about Tiktaalik?
yawa3891 [41]

Tiktaalik is a transitional fossil which shows how fish evolved into amphibians and reptiles. So the correct option is B.

What is Tiktaalik?

Tiktaalik is a direct ancestor of tetrapods or four-legged animals. It is an extinct fish-like animal and it lived on earth 380-385 million years ago (Devonian period).

The word Tiktaalik is derived from the <em>Inuktitut</em> language which loosely translates to large freshwater fish. This animal had characteristics of both fish and tetrapod and is therefore called the link between these two kinds of animals.

The characters resembling fish are gills and scales and the characters resembling tetrapods are rib bones, movable neck and lungs. There are characters that are a mix of both tetrapods and fish. These are bones and joints in limbs but fish-like fins instead of feet or hands.

Describe the evidence scientists discovered which demonstrate the evolution of whales from land-based mammals to water-based mam
Bumek [7]

Answer: We have found fossils that share specific bony traits that are found only in all whales but absent in every other mammal group, indicating descent from a shared common ancestor with modern whales, and these fossils had legs fully adapted for walking on land, and fundamentally identical to those of older mammals that precede the shared common ancestor that these mammals share with whales.

This tells us that the shared common ancestor of whales and these mammals with legs almost certainly had legs themselves, and inherited those legs from their own older mammal ancestors.

Therefore, whales have ancestors in their lineage that walked on land with legs.

(We also have multiple fossils of ancient whales that had legs transitional in form between fully terrestrial walking legs and flippers adapted for swimming, and modern whales still possess a remnant hip bone buried deep in their bodies.)

pishuonlain [190]

this is because the blood flow slow through the capillaries to allow gaseous exchange. Plus the pressure is higher in capillaries because the diameter of the capillaries is smaller than arterioles
