What two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration? * H2O and CO2 H2O and C6H12O6 CO2 and C6H12O6 ATP and CO2
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The two compounds that correspond to waste products of cellular respiration are H₂O and CO₂.

Explanation:

The cellular metabolic waste products, specifically from cellular respiration are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), from the oxidation of glucose into energy.

The process of <u>cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions</u> where, from a glucose molecule, energy is obtained in the form of ATP molecules.

Obtaining H₂O and CO₂ from glucose can be summarized with the schematic reaction:

                                 <em>C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂</em>

This summary indicates that a glucose molecule, when oxidized, produces as waste 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide. To reach this process all the reactions of the oxidative phosphorylation occur and 24 molecules of ATP are obtained for each molecule of glucose.

For the other options it is important to mention that:

  • <em><u>C₆H₁₂O₆</u></em><em> is the substrate from which cellular respiration takes place. </em>
  • <em><u>ATP </u></em><em>is the final product of cellular respiration, translated into energy to be used by the cell.</em>

Which of the following is a divergent boundary?
Verizon [17]

Answer;

D. Rift valley

Explanation;

-A divergent boundary also called the divergent plate boundary is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. Most divergent plate boundaries are underwater (Iceland is an exception) and form submarine mountain ranges called oceanic spreading ridges.

-Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys.They are constructive boundaries. Convergent boundaries on the other hand are areas where plates move toward each other and collide.

Which phrase listed below best describes the function of the digestive system?
xz_007 [3.2K]


The best answer is C - to break down food into nutrients.

The digestive system  breaks down food  into its simplest form that cell are able to utilize  for energy.  Food is broken down into its monomer units. Proteins are broken down into amino acids, lipids are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol and carbohydrates are broken down into glucose.

Glucose is then absorbed into the blood and transported to every cell in the body. The cells take in glucose and use it as fuel and raw material  in the process of cellular respiration. From one molecule of glucose, 36 to 38 molecules of ATP ( the form of energy used by cells) are produced.

Select all of the true statements regarding non‑shivering thermogenesis.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

a, b, d y e

Explanation:

We can define thermogenesis as the method of production of lime or temperature that a living body generates, in biology it is studied that this does not occur in all animals, but is seen in so-called warm blood and some plants, there are three types of processes identified in animals:

NEAT: defined as thermogenesis that occurs without the presence of physical activity

DIT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with physical activity

EAT: defined as the thermogenesis that occurs with the consumption of food or diet

Thermogenesis under the thermogenin protein found in brown adipose tissue produces a disengagement of protons within the mitochondria, prevents ATP synthesis and is capable of inducing temperature with the flow of protons, it also intervenes by increasing glycolysis, lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis with which its final result in these processes is the production of energy. The effect of the sympathetic nervous system and thyroid hormones that can balance heat production without generating abnormal movements such as tremor is also recognized.

Thus we deduce that:

electron transport allows heat flow without causing tremors

Thermogenin is involved in allowing protons to enter the mitochondria and the ATP production process is carried out.

hydrolysis of fatty acids occurs in the presence of norepinephrine

in brown adipocytes ATP synthase can be avoided

This was simulation. What are some variables that this peppered moths simulation does not address?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The simulation only shows how a population can change overtime in response to the changes in the environment. During the industrial revolution, one particular phenotype of moths had an advantage over the other and hence, was subjected to natural selection. What this simulation does not tell us is the causality and correlation aspect of the change that occurs in the moths. Correlation does not equal causation, and the simulation does not shed any light on these variables in this case.

Explanation:

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
