Which of the description below best describes cellular respiration

Biology
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct option is a. chemical energy is released when glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water. Energy is released in this process in the form of ATP. Hence, option A best describes this process.

Other options like Option C)' carbon dioxide and water are combined to make glucose and oxygen' are false because this option illustrates the process of photosynthesis which is the opposite of the process of cellular respiration.

Rank these reactions from least to most energetically favorable.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

From least to most energetically favorable, the reactions are:

Glucose to Glucose-6-P (least) ; Glucose-6-P to Fructose-6-P; ATP to ADP and Pi; PEP to pyruvate (most favorable)

Explanation:

ΔG represents the free energy change that occurs during a chemical reaction. A reaction with negative free energy change is exergonic and spontaneous. Negative free energy change represents the fact that reactants have more free energy than products. The excess of the energy is released during the reaction and makes it a spontaneous process.

q`On the other hand, a reaction with positive free energy change is endothermic and non-spontaneous. These thermodynamically unfavorable reactions are coupled with other exergonic reactions to make them occur.

Among the given example, PEP to pyruvate has the highest negative free energy change (−14.8 kcal/mol) and therefore, is energetically most favorable. On the other hand, "Glucose to Glucose-6-P" has the highest positive free energy charge (+3.3 kcal/mol) making it energetically the most unfavorable reaction.

Which group is INCORRECTLY paired with its description?
amid [387]

Answer:

Red algae - acquired plastids by secondary endosymbiosis

Explanation:

Red algae are believed to have undergo a primary endosymbiosis event. Then a second endosymbiosis event created a large group known as heterokonts.  During the primary endosymbiosis event red algae acquire their plastids.

Guys! i need URGENT help!
zepelin [54]

Answer:

When carbon dioxide dissolves in seawater, the water becomes more acidic and the ocean’s pH (a measure of how acidic or basic the ocean is) drops. Even though the ocean is immense, enough carbon dioxide can have a major impact. In the past 200 years alone, ocean water has become 30 percent more acidic, faster than any known change in ocean chemistry in the last 50 million years.
