What is the function of the mitochondria within a cell?

Biology
1 answer:
REY [17]3 years ago
8 0
Mitochondria produce ATP through process of cellular respiration—specifically, aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen. The citric acid cycle, or Krebs cycle, takes place in the mitochondria. This cycle involves the oxidation of pyruvate, which comes from glucose, to form the molecule acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA is in turn oxidized and ATP is produced.

boyakko [2]
ATP is produced via 3 main ways. This being Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle and ETC or Electron Transport Chain. However Cynanide binds to something called the cytochrome C oxidase, which is part of the ETC, which means the ETC no longer produces the ATP required for the cell. Therefor your body can't produce the energy u need and you die.

How deep are cactus roots
Ratling [72]

Many cacti have roots that spread out widely, but only penetrate a short distance into the soil. In one case, a young saguaro only 12 cm (4.7 in) tall had a root system with a diameter of 2 m (7 ft), but no more than 10 cm (4 in) deep.

In other words they can't penetrate that deep.

Irresponsible people activities are responsible for global warming. explain with examples​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

With the development of industry (finally followed by the accelerated connection of settlements), more and more emissions of various gases into the atmosphere began.

Explanation:

Gases, ie particles on which the solar radiation (at least its infrared part) is efficiently dissipated and according to a larger published mechanism additionally warms the planet.

A large number of other gases, such as carbon monoxide and methane, are also taking up more and more space in the air, thus increasing the warming effect of the planet.

These gases do not only destroy the atmosphere directly. Between 30% and 40% of carbon dioxide (and the percentage of others) dissolves in the oceans. This mechanism reduces the pH value of water or increases the acidity.
