Looking at the equation for cellular respiration:
glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy
Since cells use glucose and oxygen to make carbon dioxide, water, and energy, carbon dioxide and oxygen are the reactants, while carbon dioxide, water and energy are the products.
The purpose of cells undergoing cellular respiration is to make energy for the cells, so, energy is the main product of this reaction, while, carbon dioxide and water are the waste products, also known as byproducts.
Therefore, the answer is A, water.
A garden has a higher level of oxygen compared to a city road. A garden has plants and trees. Plants produce oxygen and sugars from carbon dioxide. A city road is composed of industrial buildings, vehicles, humans, and animals. They consume oxygen that is why the oxygen content is lesser on a city road.
Clotting cascade refers to the series of reactions which take place simultaneously and result in blood clotting. The clotting cascade is a complex set of negative feed back mechanism which is used by the human body to maintain homeostasis. The clotting cascade can be triggered either by intrinsic or extrinsic release of chemical mediators. The reaction occur in this order:
Intrinsic factor < activation of common clotting pathway < platelet lipids are released < prothrombin < fibrinogen < fibrin formation < stabilized fibrin clot.
Two examples of anticoagulant medication that affect the pathway are heparin and warfarin
Answer:
Sperm undergo more mitotic cellular divisions than egg and therefore have a higher risk of developing a spontaneous mutation.
Explanation:
As you have seen in the question above, lycanthropy is a mutation that is more likely to be established as the supply of male gametes comes from older men. This is because sperm undergo more mitotic cell divisions than eggs, and therefore are at greater risk of developing a spontaneous mutation.
In order for you to understand this, you need to know that eggs (which are female gametes) are produced at once in a woman's body. Thus, cell division is limited and therefore the opportunity for spontaneous mutations to occur is also limited. However, men produce sperm from adolescence to death, creating the need for countless cell divisions, which can develop genetic errors that create spontaneous mutations in gametes.
