That’s a dependable variable because it’s relying on something else.
Answer is [ C ]
The reason is none other than,
→ Prokaryotes are commonly referred as most primitive organisms
They lacks membrane - bound organelles , they are unicellular organisms who does not posses a true nucleus .
→ Eukaryotes are most likely advanced organisms , they posses a true nucleus & membrane - bound organelles as well. There are unicellular & multicellular eukaryotes
eg : Unicellular eukaryotes like Protists
The answer to 15 is 4 because cellular respiration in the process that produces ATP. Protein synthesis, photosynthesis, and digestion don't directly produce ATP. Carbon dioxide is a by-product of cellular respiration.
Looking at your answer to number 16, I think you might have confused cellular respiration with "regular respiration" or breathing. We breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide because the mitochondria in our cells require oxygen to produce ATP, and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct.
Therefore, number 16 isn't cellular respiration. It's not happening within a cell, it's not producing ATP, and mitochondria aren't involved. Instead, it takes place in the lungs (because the alveolus is part of the lungs). You can see that carbon dioxide is being removed from the blood and oxygen is being added. This is the process of gas exchange.

Hope that helps! Feel free to ask if you need clarification or anything :)
Yes, in fact it can. the motor cortex starts to give out at around the age of 72.
