Answer:

D. Diffusion

Explanation:

Cyanide is a toxic substance which can poison the metabolic reactions of the organisms. The cyanide act during cellular respiration especially during the electron transport chain by blocking the transfer of an electron to the oxygen. This transfer of oxygen is blocked as cyanide binds to the complex IV subunits. This stops the generation of the ATP molecules and thus cells die.

If the ATP will not be produced than the physiological responses in the cell which involves the ATP will get blocked like the movement in the cell, of the cell, the process of cell division and the transport which utilizes the ATP.

Since diffusion is a process which does not uses the ATP, therefore, it will be least affected by the cyanide.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

Answer:

D. Diffusion

Explanation:

The process of diffuse transports the substances in the direction of their concentration gradients. Diffusion of substance from the region of their higher to that of the lower concentration does not require any energy. Being a passive process, diffusion can be carried out by a cell irrespective of the status of its ATP supply. Therefore, an animal cell containing a small amount of cyanide can transport substances by diffusion.

. Which graph best shows the general relationship
Andre45 [30]

The graph that best shows the general relationship between the temperature of a gas and the speed of the molecules in that gas is B.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object or particle has as a result of its motion. When work transferring energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object accelerates and goes under kinetic energy.

The missing graphs are attached as image.

The average kinetic energy of gas molecules is

K=\frac{3}{2} k_{B}T

K∝T

So as per above equation, K-T graph is a straight line having a finite slope and passing through the origin.

Thus, option B is correct.

What happens to the water supply when icecaps and glaciers are formed? Water increases. Water decreases Water changes to gas. Wa
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Water volume remains the same.

Explanation:

Ice formation is a phase change from liquid to solid.  The ice is less dense so its volume gets larger.  Warm it up, melt the ice and it will return to the same volume it had as a liquid.

How might marine scientists combat eutrophication?
Kay [80]

Eutrophication is the overgrowth of algae in lakes and ponds

that is usually caused by the introduction of different chemicals

into the water from fertilizer run-off. Some ways to combat this

are to increase the flow of moving water, prevent contamination

from fertilizer, and reduce pollution of our lakes and streams.
