What is the summary equation of respiration​

Biology
1 answer:
zaharov [31]3 years ago
3 0
Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water).

An individual with Huntington disease has two normal parents. What are plausible explanations for this pattern of inheritance? C
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer and Explanation:

The Huntington disease is caused by a mutation in the gene that codifies for the Huntingtin protein (Htt). The mutation produces an altered form of the protein leading to the neuron´s death in certain areas of the brain.

The Huntington disease characterizes for being,

  • Hereditary, passing from generation to generation. To express the disease, a person must have been born with an altered gene.
  • Autosomal, affecting men and women equally, because the mutated gene is located on an autosomal chromosome.
  • Dominant, which means that by getting only one copy of the altered gene coming from any of the parents, the receiving person will express the disease. The mutation in the gene dominates over the normal gene copy.
  • Expressed by heterozygosis. Most people affected by the disease are heterozygous, with a normal copy and a mutated copy.

There are just a few cases all around the world (3% approximately) in which the disease is expressed with no family history. The progenitors are not affected by the mutation. These cases are very rare and are called <u>"de-novo" mutations.</u> A new mutation is spontaneously produced and it is not inherited from any of the parentals. It consists of an increase in the number of CAG repetitions. In a normal person, the number of CAG repetitions is less than 35. When there are 40 or more repetitions it occurs the disease. But when there are between 35 and 39 repetitions, the penetrance of the disease is incomplete. This is a "gray zone". Those alleles that fall in the gray zone are unstable and might produce the HD. Individuals with these unstable alleles have a tendency to increase the number of repetitions from generation to generation until the number reaches 40 repetitions and the person expresses the disease. This <u>usually occurs in the paternal germinal line</u>, as it is particularly unstable in sperm and probably meiosis greatly affects their instability, causing an increase in the number of CAG repeats.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

carbon if only one answer allowed, if check multiple, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Explanation:

The common elemental ingredients are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They all contain the element carbon. They contain simpler units that are linked together making larger molecules.

Explain how the inputs of cell respiration, oxygen and sugar change into energy carbon dioxide, and water.
labwork [276]
During photosynthesis, the plant needs carbon dioxide and water-- both of which are released into the air during respiration. And during respiration, the plant needs oxygen and glucose, which are both produced through photosynthesis!

The bonds that hold atoms together behave most like Select one: a. glue. b. rubber cement. c. flexible springs. d. snap-together
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: Flexible springs

Explanation:

The atoms in an element or compound are bonded together by bonds which keeps the atoms together.

The bonds is stiff but it proves some flexibility for the movement of the atoms so that they can react and form different types of substances.

The bonds between the atoms act like flexible spring which keeps two or more atoms together and flexible for reacting.
