Which activity would most likely cause a rapid breakdown of glucose molecules?

Biology
2 answers:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D.)  A rabbit running a predator

Explanation:

The process of breakdown of glucose into CO2 and H2O is exergonic process and releases energy which is stored in the form of ATP. ATP serves as energy currency for all the functions performed be living beings.

The rate of glucose breakdown is maximum during intense physical activity to meet the increased demand for ATP.

Among the given options, since the rabbit is running to save its life from a predator, it would use maximum energy to protect itself. hence, the rabbit would exhibit a higher rate of energy production through glucose breakdown as compared to others.

Glucose is broken down any time the body needs energy fast.  Since the option with the most strenuous and energy-consuming task is (D) in which a rabbit runs for its life, the answer is (D).

Which statement is true about the layers of the Earth? * 1 as temperature and pressure increases, density increases 2 As tempera
nignag [31]

Answer:

1. As temperature and pressure increases, density increases

Explanation:

The earth is composed of three main layers: Crust, Mantle and Core. The density or mass per unit volume of the earth's layers increases as one moves from the surface towards the interior of the earth known as the core. Also, there is an increase in pressure and temperature as depth increases. There are three main sources of heat in the earth's core: (1) conserved heat from when the planet formed and coalesced, (2) heat due to friction caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet, and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.

The earth's core is composed almost entirely of the metals, iron and nickel. The core has an inner solid layer and a molten outer core. Iron and nickel are both very dense metals, so the core of the earth is very dense and the density increases with depth with the inner core being the most dense layer of the earth.

The reason that there are Okazaki fragments during DNA replication is ultimately because:
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

B) Polymerases can only synthesize in the 5' to 3' direction

Explanation:

The leading strand's directionality is 3' to 5', so polymerase has no problem with replicating this one. But the lagging strand has the opposite directionality, so the polymerase must work in the opposite direction of the replication fork.In consequence, the replication process undergoes periodic breaks, and the enzymes have to stop and start again while helicase separates both strands, resulting in the polymerization of okazaki fragments.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

I believe this is C) ecosystem impact

Explanation:

The interactions between human population dynamics and the environment have often been viewed mechanistically. This review elucidates the complexities and contextual specificities of population-environment relationships in a number of domains. It explores the ways in which demographers and other social scientists have sought to understand the relationships among a full range of population dynamics (e.g., population size, growth, density, age and sex composition, migration, urbanization, vital rates) and environmental changes. The chapter briefly reviews a number of the theories for understanding population and the environment and then proceeds to provide a state-of-the-art review of studies that have examined population dynamics and their relationship to five environmental issue areas. The review concludes by relating population-environment research to emerging work on human-environment systems.
