Answer:
Consumers use chemical energy from the chemical bonds within organic molecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids.
Explanation:
<u>Heterotrophs are consumers</u>; they ingest or absorb organic matter (lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, etc.) made by autotrophs or producers for their energy consumption. Autotrophs include plants, bacteria, and other photosynthesizing organisms, while heterotrophs include animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria.
Heterotrophs obtain energy from food through the process of cellular respiration. For instance, during aerobic respiration in mitochondria, they break down sugars in the form of glucose into carbon dioxide and water to obtain energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.
aerobic respiration: C6H12O6+ 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
glucose+ oxygen → carbon dioxide+ water+ energy
Answer:
Option (c).
Explanation:
Eukaryotes may be defined as the organism that contains the well defined nucleus and membrane bound cell organelle. The eukaryotes contains morte cell organelles as compared with prokaryotes.
The ribosomes of eukaryotes are larger than the ribosomes of prokaryotes. The 80'S ribosomes are present in eukaryotes whereas 70'S ribosomes are present in prokaryotes.
Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
Answer:
B. The prefixes chemo- and photo-: define the electron source
Explanation:
The prefix chemo is related to <u>chemical/drug</u> and photo is related to<u> light</u>. This can be proved by analysing the following examples:
Chemotherapy = therapy with chemicals
Phototherapy = therapy with light
Answer:
Inheritance Patterns
Explanation:
Mendel was studying how genes are past on to future generations and in what circumstances this can occur. He used pea plants as they multiply and grow quickly allowing him to observe many generations much faster than he would be able to observing humans or even other mammals. He also used pea plants because this way he could control reproduction of his pea plant population to adjust to specific questions he had in terms of his research.
