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.

Base your answer on the graph below and on your knowledge of biology. The graph shows
andrey2020 [161]

Hello. The chart mentioned in the question above is attached just below.

Answer:

A) has increased with increasing human population

Explanation:

As you can see in the graph below, the line that indicates the number of endangered species increases as the line that represents the increase in the human population increases. This means that the number of extinct species has increased with the increase in the human population.

This is because with the increase in the human population, there is a growing need for natural resources, in addition to increasing the need for cities to expand. All of this results in greater deforestation and extraction of natural resources, which ends up causing an increase in the factors responsible for the extinction of animals.
