Answer:

Last choice: ribose; deoxyribose

Explanation:

Ribose (otherwise known as D-ribose) is a sugar found in RNA (ribonucleic acid). It alternates with phosphate groups to create the “backbone” of the RNA polymer.

Deoxyribose (sugar in DNA) is one of the three components of nucleotides for DNA. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base: adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, and deoxyribose.

Glucose is a type of sugar which is a common and crucial energy source in living organisms and is often a component in various carbohydrates. Plants can create glucose by going through a process called photosynthesis, and once it's done with the process, they use the glucose (sugar) as their food for energy.

For each glucose that enters glycolysis, _____ nadh enter the electron transport chain.

SIZIF [17.4K]

The answer is 10 NADH.
For each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis, a total of 10 NADH are produced.
That is; during glycolysis 2 NADH are produced, while another two are produced in the conversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl-CoA, and in the Citric acid Cycle 6 NADH are produced, that makes a total of 10 NADH, which are then taken to the electron transport chain to produce ATP.

Which statement describes a characteristic of a spiral galaxy?

artcher [175]

Answer:

If your just looking for a description here you go.

Explanation:

Most spiral galaxies contain a central bulge surrounded by a flat, rotating disk of stars. The bulge in the center is made up of older, dimmer stars, and is thought to contain a supermassive black hole. Approximately two-thirds of spiral galaxies also contain a bar structure through their center, as does the Milky Way.

Hope this helps.
