Which is the best definition of a prokaryotic cell? It has a cell wall but lacks a well–defined nucleus and organelles, and its
DiKsa [7]
Options:
it has a cell wall but lacks a well–defined nucleus and organelles, and its cytoplasm doesn't have <span> much structure. - this is the correct one!


It contains a membrane–bound nucleus and organelles, and its organelles have specialized duties. </span>
<span>no!, this is false! prokaryotes don't have membrane-bound nucleus!

It contains a membrane–bound nucleus, a large central vacuole, a cell wall, a cell membrane, and chloroplasts. - no!, this is false! prokaryotes don't have membrane-bound nucleus!</span>


so, for this we only needed to know that prokaryotes DON'T have a membrane-bound nucleus (and this is also perhaps their most important property)

Describe the flow of energy from a glucose molecule to ATP during respiration, and compare this to the flow of energy from gluco
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Glycolysis is the first step of the cellular respiration in an organism which is metabolic pathway that is completed in the cytosol of the cell that leads to the converting glucose to the pyruvate in order to produce energy in form of ATP:

1. Glucose-6-phosphate is ---> fructose-6-phosphate

2. fructose-6-phosphate ---> fructose-1,6-biphosphate

3. fructose-1,6-biphosphate ---> glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate(GAP) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP).

4. GAP is oxidised ----> 3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADH

5.  3-bisphosphoglycerate  ----> 1,3-bisphophoglycerat

6. 1,3-bisphophoglycerate   ----> 3-phosphoglycerate

7. 3-phosphoglycerate ----> 2-phosphoglycerate

8.  2-phosphoglycerate  ----> phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)

9. phosphoenolpyruvate to ADP  ----> pyruvic acid + ATP

Formation of ATP occurs in both pathways or process that are respiration and fermentation. Fermentation is a catabolic pathway leads to the degradation of sugars (partial) that result in the gain of energy and this energy are absorbed in ATP.  There are difference of the amount of energy or ATP produce in these process in respiration 38 ATP are produced whereas during fermentation only 2 ATP are produced.
