Why doesn't an animal cell need to photosynthesize in order for cellular respiration to occur

Biology

Hi!


In order for cellular respiration to occur in a cell, the cell needs to have glucose molecules to utilize in the reaction which is as follows:

<u>C6H12O6</u> + 6 O2  -->  6 CO2  + 6 H2O + ATP (energy)

Cellular respiration cannot occur in the absence of glucose. Plant cells acquire this glucose from photosynthesis:

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = <u>C6H12O6</u> + 6O2

Animal cells do not need to photsynthesize because they acquire the amount of  glucose for cellular reaction from their diet/consumption. Herbivores acquire this glucose from plants, carnivores from feeding off other animals, and omnivores from both feeding off plants and animals.


Hope this helps!

Answer – The force of gravity is stronger than the force of magnetism.

 

The attractive force of magnetism is the force that keeps the nails joined to one another and to the end of a bar magnet while the force of gravity is the force acting to pull the nails to the ground. If when Juanita sticks the seventh nail, it falls off the sixth nail, it means that the force of gravity acting on the seventh nail is stronger than the force of magnetism acting on it.

What is the name of the enzyme used to make rna nucleotides
Likurg_2 [28]
<h2>RNA Polymerase</h2>

Explanation:

  • RNA polymerase, a chemical in the cell, is  answerable for making mRNA from the  right quality. RNA polymerase is like  DNA polymerase, yet it makes a RNA strand  as opposed to a DNA strand. The promoter region of DNA Helix is attached by  RNA polymerase.
  • It pulls in nucleotides that supplement those  on the DNA strand containing the gene of interest. RNA polymerase duplicates one strand of  DNA to make a stretching bit of singlestranded  mRNA. RNA polymerase makes the  mRNA strand in what is known as the 5' to 3'  course.
