Fungi lacks the ability to produce their own food because they do not have chloroplast which is needed to obtain energy from the sun and convert it into food. Also fungi lack ability to fix nitrogen which has to be incorporated into their food. They also can not fix carbon and utilize it to produce food. Because of these they have to depend on dead organic matters for food.

Rank these reactions from least to most energetically favorable.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

From least to most energetically favorable, the reactions are:

Glucose to Glucose-6-P (least) ; Glucose-6-P to Fructose-6-P; ATP to ADP and Pi; PEP to pyruvate (most favorable)

Explanation:

ΔG represents the free energy change that occurs during a chemical reaction. A reaction with negative free energy change is exergonic and spontaneous. Negative free energy change represents the fact that reactants have more free energy than products. The excess of the energy is released during the reaction and makes it a spontaneous process.

q`On the other hand, a reaction with positive free energy change is endothermic and non-spontaneous. These thermodynamically unfavorable reactions are coupled with other exergonic reactions to make them occur.

Among the given example, PEP to pyruvate has the highest negative free energy change (−14.8 kcal/mol) and therefore, is energetically most favorable. On the other hand, "Glucose to Glucose-6-P" has the highest positive free energy charge (+3.3 kcal/mol) making it energetically the most unfavorable reaction.

Can someone explain eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells like you’re talking to a 5 year old?
Fed [463]

Eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The nucleus is where DNA, your genetic material, is usually stored. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The DNA just floats around the cell instead of staying in one designated area.

How can some spores survive adverse conditions​
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

In biology, a spore is a unit of sexual or asexual reproduction that may be adapted for dispersal and for survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavourable conditions. Spores form part of the life cycles of many plants, algae, fungi and protozoa.
