An active site is a region that is present on an enzyme where the reactants or the substrate molecules we can say bind and experience a chemical reaction. The substrate is basically a reactant whose concentration is changing and that is converting into a product after binding at the active site of an enzyme
The categorization of the characteristics based on whether they are describing chloroplasts or mitochondria are as follows:
- <u>Mitochondria:</u> carry out cellular respiration.
- <u>Chloroplasts:</u> carry out photosynthesis.
- <u>Mitochondria:</u> found in plant and animal cells.
- <u>Chloroplasts:</u> produce carbohydrates used as source of food for most living things.
- <u>Mitochondria:</u> abundant in human muscle cells.
- <u>Chloroplasts:</u> not found in animal cells.
- <u>Chloroplasts:</u> contain chlorophyll.
<h3>What is a cell?</h3>
A cell can be defined as the fundamental functional, structural and smallest unit of life, which is found within the body of an organism.
Some examples of cell organelles that are found in the body of an organism include the following:
- Mitochondria.
- Nucleus.
- Endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
- Vesicles.
- Cytoplasm.
- Cell membrane.
- Chromosome.
- Golgi apparatus (bodies).
- Chloroplast
<h3>What is
mitochondria?</h3>
Mitochondria can be defined as one of the cell organelles that is found in the body of a living organism.
Also, mitochondria is known as the powerhouse because it is saddled with responsibility of providing all the energy required in the cell, especially by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions.

Answer:
Q1) True
Q2) Metabolism
Q3) Physiological response
Explanation:
Q1) Energy cannot be created (first law of thermodynamics). Life needs an energy source to transform. Without the energy from the sun or any other sources, life would cease to exist. (True)
Q2) An organism chemical reactions consist, in general, breaking down complex molecules (catabolism) releasing energy or to form complex structures from simpler molecules (anabolism) which require energy . The total of this reactions is called metabolism.
Q3) Hibernation is physiological state of inactivity and metabolic depression in some organisms, which result as a response to low temperatures and unavailability of food.
<span>By rebonding with another phosphate molecule through oxidative phosphorylation, it becomes recharged and the ADP to ATP process can be restarted. This allows for more cellular energy to be produced, and more metabolic actions to be undertaken. This is the major aspect of cell respiration.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Proteins are involved in almost every function of cell and inside the body and each protein is specific for its role. Some of them are
1) Protein constitute major part of structure of cell. Proteins are major constituent of cell membrane along with lipids.
2) Enzymes which are proteins in nature catalyze all the important chemical reactions inside and outside the cell e.g transporting material across the cell, synthesizing and repair of DNA
3) Hormones which are proteins play important role in the regulation of metabolic reactions inside the cell
4) Regulation of cell division is performed by DNA-associated proteins
5) Proteins plays important role in storage of iron inside the cells
6) Proteins can be stored as fats inside the body and used as energy when needed by cells for its metabolic activities.
