B. A form of energy coupling refers to using the release of energy from exergonic hydrolysis of ATP to initiate other endergonic reactions for cellular metabolism.

Answer:

The energy from the hydrolysis of ATP may be directly coupled to endergonic processes by the transfer of the phosphate group to another molecule.(Ans. B)

Explanation:

ATP is a complex chemical which provides energy for many processes in living cells.

ATP hydrolysis is known as the catabolic reaction. High energy phophoanhydride bond present in adenosine triphosphate where chemical energy has been stored and released by splitting of these bonds. (high energy phophoanhydride bonds)

ATP is formed by the combination of ADP and phosphate group. The energy is released by the hydrolysis of ATP is used for the cellular works. This energy is mainly used by the coupling endergonic reactions with exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis.

How are sex-linked pedigrees different from autosomal pedigrees?
LenaWriter [7]
Autosomal traits would show Mendelian inheritance pattern but sex-linked traits would show criss cross inheritance.

Sex-linked trait is often controlled by gene present only on X chromosome, hence no corresponding allele is present on Y chromosome.

Answer:

C.

mark me the brainliest if this helps

Explanation:

Simple diffusion is pretty much exactly what it sounds like – molecules move down their gradients through the membrane. Molecules that practice simple diffusion must be small and nonpolar*, in order to pass through the membrane. Simple diffusion can be disrupted if the diffusion distance is increased. If the alveoli in our lungs fill with fluid (pulmonary edema), the distance the gases must travel increases, and their transport decreases. Facilitated diffusion is diffusion that is helped along (facilitated by) a membrane transport channel. These channels are glycoproteins (proteins with carbohydrates attached) that allow molecules to pass through the membrane. These channels are almost always specific for either a certain molecule or a certain type of molecule (i.e. an ion channel), and so they are tightly linked to certain physiologic functions. For example, one such transporter channel, GLUT4, is incredibly important in diabetes. GLUT4 is a glucose transporter found in fat and skeletal muscle. Insulin triggers GLUT4 to insert into the membranes of these cells so that glucose can be taken in from the blood. Since this is a passive mechanism, the amount of sugar entering our cells is proportional to how much sugar we consume, up to the point that all our channels are being used (saturation). In type II diabetes mellitus, cells do not respond as well to the presence of insulin, and so do not insert GLUT4 into their membranes. This can lead to soaring blood glucose levels which can cause heart disease, stroke, and kidney
