Explain what a concentration gradient is and how it is used in cellular respiration.

Biology
1 answer:
sashaice [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A concentration gradient is how to particles in a solution move from areas of high solute concentration to low solute concentration. This is used in cellular respiration within the Electron Transport Chain as a concentration gradient forms in which hydrogen ions diffuse out of the matrix space by passing through ATP synthase. If you need further clarification don't hesitate to ask.

A food that supplies two grams each of fat, carbohydrate and protein delivers ___ total calories.
shtirl [24]
<span>The commonly accepted values is 4 Calories per gram of protein and carbohydrate and 9 Calories per gram of fat. Since we have 2 grams of each, a little simple math will do: 2 g * 4 Cal/g + 2 g * 4 Cal/g + 2 g *9 Cal/g = 8 Cal + 8 Cal + 18 Cal = 34 Cal</span>

\85. compare the equation for cellular respiration to the equation for photosynthesis.
Alexandra [31]

Answer: The reactants for Photosynthesis are the products for Cellular Respiration and the reactants of Cellular Respiration are the products of Photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis:

6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2

**6 Carbon Dioxide + 6 water -> Glucose + 6 Oxygen**

Cellular Respiration:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy

**Glucose + 6 Oxygen -> 6 Water + 6 Carbon Dioxide + Energy**

A new and effective antibiotic becomes widely used for a particular species of bacteria. After some time, an antibiotic-resistan
s2008m [1.1K]
Antibiotic resistance happens when an antibiotic lost its ability in controlling or killing bacterial growth. At this moment the bacteria are already resistant to the antibiotic and are multiplying even though the drug is present. This is a natural phenomenon.

Different body cells can respond differently to the same peptide hormone because _____.
ch4aika [34]
The correct answer is d: a target cell's response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways.
The response of a cell to a hormone depends on the cell’s receptor and a signal transduction. When a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane, a second messenger is activated in the cytoplasm. The second messenger has a role of triggering signal transduction leading to the cellular response. Lots of different signal transduction processes (for example, different intracellular proteins) are used to coordinate the behaviour of target cells.
