The reactant are oxygen and carbohydrate (glucose).

Cellular respiration is a redox reaction that extracts energy from glucose. We will have a controlled release of the free energy of organic compounds from the cells to form ATP.

Can be done in the presence (aerobic) or absence (anaerobic) of oxygen.

The aerobic reaction will produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

Reactants are the molecules that begin cellular respiration, in this case that would be oxygen<span> and </span>glucose<span>. Hope this helps. </span>

Other than their respective systems, what other system could the lungs and skin be classified as members of? Why this system?

Gnoma [55]

Lungs and skin can also be part of the excretory system due to fact that they both excrete wastes.
Skin secretes excess water and salts
Your lungs help you get rid of waste gases

The rate of respiration (how fast you breathe) is determined by which amount of gas in the blood? A.Oxygen b.Nitrogen c.Carbon D

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

c. Carbon Dioxide

Explanation:

The rate of respiration is determined by the presence of concentration of carbondioxide gas in the blood because in the process of respiration, energy in the form of adenine tri phosphate (ATP) and carbondioxide gas are produced. This ATP is required for performing different activities while carbondioxide gas is a waste product which must be removed from the blood through breathing. If carbondioxide gas is produced quickly so the rate of respiration is also increased in order to remove the gas from the blood.

Describe two ways of measuring biodiversity. Explain the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem stability. As part of y

Daniel [21]

Answer:

- Two predictors to measure biodiversity: Species Richness and Simpson's Index

- Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability

- It has been shown that natural ecosystems are more stable than monocultures, while isolated human populations are found in highly diverse ecosystems

Explanation:

Two major predictors to measure biodiversity are: 1-species richness and the 2-Simpson's index. The species richness is a count for the total number of the species in a given habitat and/or ecosystem; while Simpson's index is a similarity index that indicates the likelihood that two different individuals selected at random from a sample will belong to the same species, thereby also estimating the biodiversity of a habit and/or ecosystem. Simpson's index takes into consideration the number of species and the abundance of each species. Ecosystems with high diversity tend to be more stable and resilient than ecosystems with low diversity. Biodiversity increases ecosystem stability due to the species asynchrony, which is a strong driver capable of stabilizing multiple processes/functions in the ecosystems over time (e.g., the productivity of the ecosystems over time). In this regard, it has been shown that forests that are highly diverse in the number of species are more productive and stable under stress than monocultures (i.e., agricultural crops), while isolated human populations live in sustainable ecosystems, it is for that reasons that isolated tribes are only found in highly diverse ecosystems.

Please help worth 95 points. Project: Algae Cultures: Directions

Alik [6]

Answer:

UNICELLULAR, MULTICELLULAR, OR COLONIAL EURKAYOTE WHOSE CELL WALLS MAY CONTAIN CELLULOSE; CAN BE PLANTLIKE, ANIMAL-LIKE, OR FUNGUS LIKE

a) IF IT IS A EUKARYOTE, BUT NOT AN ANIMAL, PLANT, OR FUNGI THEN IT IS A PROTIST

1. Protists are classified more easily by what they are not than by what they are

a) Protists are not animals, plants or fungi because they do not have all of the characteristics necessary to place them in any of these kingdoms

2. Kingdom Protista was created to include this diverse group of more than 200,000 organisms

3. ALL PROTISTS ARE EUKARYOTES WHICH MEANS THEY HAVE MEMBRANE BOUND ORGANELLES AND A DNA FOUND IN A MEMBRANE BOUND NUCLEUS

a) like all eurkayotes, the DNA of protists is found within the membrane bound eukaryotes, there are remarkable differences in their reproductive methods

b) Some reproduce asexually by mitosis while others exchange genetic material during meiosis

PROTISTS ARE CLASSIFIED BASED ON THEIR METHOD OF OBTAINING NUTRITION

1. There are divided into three groups using this method:

a) animal-like protists/protozoan

b) plantlike protists/algae

c) fungus like protists

HETEROTROPHIC, UNICELLULAR, ANIMAL LIKE PROTIST

1. Usually ingest bacteria, algae, or other protozoans

2. REQUIREMENTS:

a) ingest food, heterotrophs

b) no cell walls

3. Some are parasites

1. Cillates

2. amoebas

3. apicomplexans

4. zooflagellates

5. paramecium
