Answer:
Plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Explanation:
- Cellular respiration is the conversion of glucose into ATP and energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2 along with water and oxygen and carbon dioxide as by-products.
- Cellular respiration is a process that occurs both in autotrophs and heterotrophs.
- Only the final stage of cellular respiration i.e. oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
- Heterotrophic cells don't take in carbondioxide, they utilize glucose obtained through food.
Answer:
b: many genes code for RNAs that function directly in the cell
Explanation:
<em>The central dogma</em> theory describes the basic framework for gene expression in living organisms. Genetic information from DNA is encoded or transcribed as RNA which then becomes translated as proteins.
The processes that take place for gene to be successfully expressed are;
- Replication
- Transcription
- Translation
<em>Replication</em> is a process whereby DNA makes a copy of itself to be distributed in daughter cells during cell division.
<em>Transcription</em> is the process whereby genetic information in DNA is encoded as RNAs. The RNAs are short-lived as they are quickly utilized in protein synthesis or <em>translation </em>process.
Hence, the RNAs do not function directly in the cells but mere intermediaries in the synthesis of proteins.
<em>The correct option is b.</em>
Fungi includes mushrooms, yeast, and mold. Fungi are multicellular and eukaryotic. They are also heterotrophs, and gain nutrition through adsorption
Humans obtain nitrogen by eating other organisms.
