Answer:

The correct answers first question is A. both are unicellular, and second question is C. the smallest living things are single cells, and cells are the functional units of multicellular ogranisms.

Explanation:

Both E.coli and paramecium are unicellular organisms that means they are made up of a single cell. E.coli is prokaryote so it does not have membrane-bound organelles but paramecium has membrane-bound organelles so it comes under eukaryotes. Therefore, the correct answer is A.both are unicellular.

Cell theory was proposed by Theodor Schwann, Matthias Schleiden, and Rudolph Virchow. According to cell theory, all living things are made up of cells. Cell is the smallest unit of life and it is also a functional unit of multicellular organisms and new cells arise from old cells.

So the correct answer is the smallest living things are single cells, and cells are the functional units of multicellular organisms.

In fermentation _____ is reduced and _____ is oxidized. In fermentation _____ is reduced and _____ is oxidized. pyruvate ... NAD

Lyrx [107]

Answer: Pyruvate is reduced and NADH is oxidized.

Explanation:

Fermentation is a chemical process that involves the breakdown of carbohydrates anaerobically by the activities of microorganisms.

It is the process use in the production of foodstuffs, wine and beer. Fermentation start with enzymes activities, which breakdown sugars into lactate or two molecules of three carbon organic acid, pyruvic acid. Pyruvate is reduced to lactic acid or alcohol in the absence of oxygen and nicotinamide adenine dinuleotide+hydrogen(NADH) is oxidized . This process produces two ATP per glucose molecule.

What is the difference between Darwin's theory of evolution and Lamarck's theory of evolution ?

nekit [7.7K]

Darwin believed that organisms changed gradually over time,but Lamarck thought they changed suddenly.Lamarck believed that organisms could acquire characteristics during their lifetime that they could pass down to their offspring,but Darwin did not believe these traits could be passed down.Darwin believed that species are still changing,but Lamarck believed they had stopped.Lamarck believed that evolution occurred randomly,but Darwin thought it was the result of predetermined plan.Hope this help you!
