Answer:
If 10 glucose molecules are broken down, 320 ATP molecules will be generated during the electron transport chain.
Explanation:
In the electron transport chain, high energy electrons travel across a series of proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, releasing energy in the process.Hydrogen is pumped from the matrix into the intermembrane space, therefore an hydrogen ion gradient is formed across the inner membrane.These proton are then pumped back into the mitochondrial membrane where the synthesis of ATP from ATP synthase takes place.
In the electron transport chain, a total of 32 ATPs are generated per glucose molecule.
so if 10 glucose molecules are broken down:
1 glucose ⇒ 32 ATPs
10 glucose ⇒ 10*32
320 ATP molecules
Answer:
When one phosphate group is removed by breaking a phosphoanhydride bond in a process called hydrolysis, energy is released, and ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Likewise, energy is also released when a phosphate is removed from ADP to form adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
Explanation:
In animals, a cleavage furrow begins to form between the soon-to-be sister cells. The lipid bilayer is pinched until the cells are finally separated. In plants, the cell walls are made up of cellulose, so they won't bend. Instead, a new wall is grown in between the the two new cells.
Hope this helps. :D
<h2>Answer:</h2>
Bt corn is a genetically modified organism that contains a gene of bacteria known as Bacillus thuringiensis.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Bt corn is a type of transgenic crop that contains a gene which produces a crystal-like protein which has an insecticidal effect.
- This gene is present in bacteria. This gene is transferred to the plant by the recombinant DNA technology and genetic engineering.
- This bacterium is a soil bacterium which has no side effects on humans.
- Due to use of this technology, the poisonous chemical insecticides are not used in crop production.
Predators possess usually good senses to find their prey and special abilities to trap the prey. Predatory birds, for example, had an outstanding eyesight and sometimes hearing, for the case of the owls while other predators, like many species of mammals, have a very high sense of smell that helps them locate prey. Many predators are very fast, and use their speed to help capture their prey, some are fastest runners, fast fliers and fast swimmers.
