It takes the food you eat, breaks it up into small pieces, and turns it into energy
Answer:
ice age/ Quaternary glaciation
Explanation:
Ice ages have occurred in the earth history and do occur more or less regularly in a cycle. It is believed that ice ages are as a result of small changes in the earth's orbit and also dependent on the solar cycles. The temperatures on the earth reduce causing the ice sheets in the poles to extend to the subtropics.
Answer: 3 stages- glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. In glycolysis, the beginning process of all types of cellular respiration, two molecules of ATP are used to attach 2 phosphate groups to a glucose molecule, which is broken down into 2 separate 3-carbon PGAL molecules. PGAL releases electrons and hydrogen ions to the electron carrier molecule NADP+. A carboxyl group is removed from pyruvate and released as carbon dioxide. The two-carbon molecule from the first step is oxidized, and NAD+ accepts the electrons to form NADH. The oxidized two-carbon molecule, an acetyl group, is attached to Coenzyme A to form acetyl CoA. The citric acid cycle, where acetyl CoA is modified in the mitochondria to produce energy precursors in preparation for the next step. Oxidative phosphorylation, the process where electron transport from the energy precursors from the citric acid cycle (step 3) leads to the phosphorylation of ADP, producing ATP. The space between the inner and outer membrane is called the intermembrane space. The space enclosed by the inner membrane is called the matrix. The second stage of cellular respiration, the Krebs cycle, takes place in the matrix. The third stage, electron transport, takes place on the inner membrane.
Explanation:
Answer:
Elements that are found in the same horizontal row (belong to the same period) in the periodic table, e.g. Fluorine and Neon both have the same energy level of 2.
<em>Note: The question does not specify any two elements.</em>
Explanation:
The modern periodic table is organized into eight vertical columns known as groups and seven horizontal rows known as periods. The atomic number ( number of protons in the nucleus) of elements increases when moving across the periodic table from left to right. The horizontal rows or periods represents an energy levels or the number of electron shells in an element. Energy levels (also called electron shells) are fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons may be found. Elements belonging to the same period have the same number of energy level or shells. For example, the elements belonging to Period 2 include lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon. These all have the same number of energy level of 2.
