Answer:

C. Active transport

Explanation:

Active transport is the process by which cells introduce substances against their osmotic potential. It is the opposite of diffusion, where substances move through membranes without the need of extra energy, as they follow a favorable osmotic potential towards equilibrium.

Active transport needs special proteins on the membranes to perform the task, whereas diffusion may need them (facilitated diffusion) or not (osmosis) depending on the size of the incoming molecules and the membrane's permeability.

The characteristics of the active site microenvironment of an enzyme can be largely independent of individual catalytic mechanis
Valentin [98]

Answer: (1) Providing an optimized orientation of the substrate.

(2) Decreasing the ∆G in reaction.

(3) Excluding excess water.

Explanation: The active sites of enzymes increase the rate of reaction because they decrease the activation energy of the reaction,and the physical microenvironment provides an optimal orientation of the substrate relative to reactive functional groups while excluding excess solvent,such as water.

Although some active sites may have amino acids that form salt bridges with the amino acids from a substrate,not all do, so this is not a generic strategy of active site microenvironments

Identify whether each item is a reactant or a product of cellular respiration
Zanzabum

Answer:

Glucose is a reactant of cellular respiration.

Carbon dioxide and water are both products if cellular respiration.

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:

Identify whether each item is a reactant or a product of cellular respiration. glucose carbon dioxide (co2) water (h2o)

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down by the cells to produce the energy molecules, ATP.

The various reaction steps of cellular respiration include glycolysis- where glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate, the citric acid cycle- where two acetylCoA molecules produced from the oxidation of pyruvate are converted to carbon dioxide molecules, and finally the electron transport chain- where the electron-donors NADH and FADH2 produced in the citric acid cycle donate their electrons to oxygen to produce water molecules.

The overall chemical reaction for cellular respiration is represented as follows:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

1 molecule of glucose reacts with six molecules of oxygen to produce six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water.

Therefore, glucose is a reactant while carbon dioxide and water are both products of cellular respiration.

Which of the following does not occur during Mitosis?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is 'replication of chromosomes.'</em>

Explanation:

Mitosis can be described as a type of cell division in which two daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cell. crossing over or independent assortment does not occur during this process. The cells produced by this method do not have to replicate their chromosomes. Hence, this option is not true.

Other options are true like the alignment of chromosomes along the cell's equator happens during the metaphase of mitosis.
