Answer:

A. The number of genes on its chromosomes

Explanation:

The reason why genes are so important is because genes can be transcribed to make mRNAs, and mRNAs can then be translated to make proteins. Proteins are an integral part of life, since they regulate so many processes and functions. Therefore, the number of genes (or lack thereof) in an organism defines how the organism is going to function.

What happens to macromolecules from food during digestion?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

. Chemical digestion is the biochemical process in which macromolecules in food are changed into smaller molecules that can be absorbed into body fluids and transported to cells throughout the body. Substances in food that must be chemically digested include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.

2.A fat molecule, such as a triglyceride, consists of two main components—glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol is an organic compound with three carbon atoms, five hydrogen atoms, and three hydroxyl (–OH) groups.

3. If it's in the table, it's an element! Atoms can join together - they form bonds together - to make MOLECULES. For example, two atoms of hydrogen hook together to form a molecule of hydrogen, H2 for short.

4. When atoms join together to form molecules, they are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons between the atoms. It is only the electrons in the outermost shell that ever get involved in bonding.

A compound is a molecule made of atoms from different elements. There are two main types of chemical bonds that hold atoms together: covalent and ionic/electrovalent bonds. Atoms that share electrons in a chemical bond have covalent bonds. An oxygen molecule (O2) is a good example of a molecule with a covalent bond.

5.Beginning with energy sources obtained from their environment in the form of sunlight and organic food molecules, eukaryotic cells make energy-rich molecules like ATP and NADH via energy pathways including photosynthesis, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

When a cell phone overheats, why is it important to find out whether the heat is coming from bottom of the phone or from the oth
Reptile [31]
<span>It is important to determine weather the heat is coming from the bottom of the phone or from a different area because if you feel the heat is being emitted from the bottom of the phone, this is indicative of a battery overheating. If heat comes from other areas, it often means the phone itself is overheating.</span>
