What function does DNA performs in eukaryotes​

Biology
1 answer:
Svet_ta [14]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

DNA is the information molecule. It stores instructions for making other large molecules, called proteins. These instructions are stored inside each of your cells, distributed among long structures called chromosomes. These chromosomes are made up of thousands of shorter segments of DNA, called genes.

Which is not the defining characteristic of an acid?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Taste bitter  is not the defining characteristic of an acid.

<h3>What is the definition of acids?</h3>

Acids are a type of substance that is very present in our daily lives. For Chemistry, they are substances that release H+ ions in an aqueous solution, decreasing its pH.

In this case, is a characteristic of an acid the turn litmus red, reacts with bases to form salts and react with metals to form H2 gas.

What is respiration​
3241004551 [841]

Respiration is a metabolic process common to all living things. Here, you will learn the definition, location, processes, and formula for cellular respiration. At the end, you can test your knowledge with a short quiz.

What is Respiration?

When you hear the word 'respire,' you probably think of breathing. When you breathe, you are taking in oxygen with each inhale and releasing carbon dioxide with each exhale. This gas exchange is important for respiration, but while breathing is a physical process, respiration can be thought of as more of a chemical process. All organisms, from a single bacterial cell to a coral reef colony to a blue whale, undergo respiration.

Food molecules absorbed after digestion are taken in, broken down, and the energy freed in the process is used to power the organism's movements and physiological functioning. Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (the currency of energy in cells).

When we examine the equation for cellular respiration, we see that the reactants are glucose and oxygen (for aerobic respiration), and the products are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Note the number of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water molecules involved in each 'turn' of the process.

Balance with Photosynthesis

Respiration is the antithesis to the process of photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide and water are taken in by autotrophs, along with sunlight, to make glucose and oxygen. Autotrophs include any photosynthesizing organisms, such as plants and algae, all of whom also undergo respiration. The products of photosynthesis are taken in by heterotrophs, organisms who cannot make their own energy and rely upon autotrophs for food. The byproducts of their respiration - carbon dioxide and water - are then used for photosynthesis. In a balanced ecosystem, this exchange is an example of a negative feedback loop.

Three Phases of Respiration

In prokaryotic cells, respiration takes place in the cytosol and across the cell plasma membrane. In eukaryotic cells, it occurs in the cytosol and in the mitochondria. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of eukaryotic cells, and contain high surface areas of membrane folds on which respiration activity can be maximized.
