Answer:

The difference between granites and basalts is in silica content and their rates of cooling. A basalt is about 53% SiO2, whereas granite is 73%. Intrusive, slowly cooled inside the crust.

I Hope it Helps:)

Water

The electrons stripped from glucose first end up forming oxygen as cellular respiration proceeds with the electron transport chain (step). Eventually, the oxygen is combined with the hydrogen ions initially released or split from glucose by the dehydrogenase enzyme. The reaction between oxygen and hydrogen ends up forming water.

Label the main steps in the cellular respiration model?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Step 1: Glycolysis. In glycolysis, glucose—a six-carbon sugar—undergoes a series of chemical transformations. In the end, it gets converted into two molecules of pyruvate, a three-carbon organic molecule. In these reactions, ATP is made, and \text{NAD}^+NAD  +  N, A, D, superscript is converted to {NADH}NADHN, A, D, H.

Step 2:Pyruvate oxidation. Each pyruvate from glycolysis goes into the mitochondrial matrix—the innermost compartment of mitochondria. There, it’s converted into a two-carbon molecule bound to Co-enzyme A, known as acetyl CoA. Carbon dioxide is released and NADH is generated.

Step 3:Citric acid cycle. The acetyl CoA made in the last step combines with a four carbon molecule and goes through a cycle or reaction, ultimately regenerating the four carbon starting molecule.
