A carbohydrate is an organic compound such as sugar or starch, and is used to store energy. Like most organic compounds, carbohydrates are built of small, repeating units that form bonds with each other to make a larger molecule. In the case of carbohydrates, the small repeating units are called monosaccharides.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A  

Explanation:

The citric acid cycle is the cyclic chain of reactions taking place as a phase of the cellular respiration as it gets halted in the absence of oxygen. The citric acid cycle converts the obtained acetyl-CoA to a usable form of energy in the form of ATP, NADH and FADH₂.

The citric acid cycle forms intermediates which are utilised by the organisms to synthesise the various biomolecules like amino acids, purines and pyrimidines.

The intermediates like alpha-ketoglutarate forms arginine, proline and glutamine whereas oxaloacetate forms asparagine and aspartate. If bacteria do not receive the amino acids then they will synthesise the amino acids using intermediates of the citric acid cycle.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Humans contribute to many changes of areas such as beaches, bays, wetlands, the sea floor, and coral reefs. How does the deliber
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
In many regions, wetlands have been filled in so as to be able to use the land for farming. Wetlands are vital for reducing the intensity of floods, as they tend to hold back some of the water. Without wetlands, flood will tend to wash increased sediment and pollutants into the ocean, which can have a detrimental effect on marine life. Coastal developments can also have a negative effect on marine life. The removal or moving of beach sand is in particular damaging to intertidal organisms that depend on specific coastal environments, and rocky shores can be smothered by sand, whereas sand environments can change into bare rocky environments. Impounding of rivers and reduced river flow can result in estuaries becoming closed. Many marine organisms, such as fish, depend on estuaries as nursery areas where they lay their eggs. Reduced opening of estuaries means that many fish species cannot reproduce. Built harbours result in changed currents and alteration of the sea floor, which also disrupts marine ecosystems.
