1. Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that occurs inside the cell. During cellular respiration, glucose molecule is broken down in the presence of oxygen.
2. During cellular respiration, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) molecule is also produced that acts as energy currency and directly powers cell work.
3. Amylase is an enzyme that helps in digestion. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into simple sugars. If amylase is present in normal amount it will break down starch into disaccharides. If the amount of disaccharidase amount is less than usual then less disaccharides will be broken down into monosaccharides. Thus the production of monosaccharides will decrease.
4. In the reactions shown above, the end product is largely dependent on the last enzyme. If Enzyme3 is in less amount than usual then there will be greatest reduction in the production of G and H. This is because the formation of product in any reaction is dependent on the substrate concentration and enzyme concentration.
The hypothalamus regulates the release of hormones from the pituitary gland, maintains body temperature, and organizes behaviors such as feeding, fluid intake, mating, and aggression. It is the central regulator of autonomic and endocrine visceral functions.
Plant types matched with their descriptions
- Hydrophytes - Aquatic plants
- Mesophytes - Plants with habitats that are neither too wet nor too dry
- Xerophytes - Plants with very dry habitats
Hydrophytes are aquatic plants that may be free floating, fully submerged or partly submerged (amphibious) in water. The vascular tissue of hydrophytes is very poorly developed. Examples of hydrophytes are Ottelia, Sagittaria and Utricularia.
Mesophytes are plants that live in habitats that have a moderate supply of water (neither too wet nor too dry. Mesophytes are usually large, fast growing, and have well developed roots and leaves. Examples of mesophytes are clover and maize (corn).
Xerophytes are plants that are able to thrive with very dry habitats where the available soil water is low. Examples of xerophytes are Acacia and Carthamus.
