A gated channel is an example of facilitated diffusion. A gated channel protein is a transport protein that opens a "gate" allowing a molecule to pass through the membrane (usually molecules too big to enter the cell by passing through the membrane itself).<span> </span>Gated channels <span>have a binding site that is specific for a given molecule or ion. (meaning only certain molecules or ions can enter the channel).</span>
<span>Apart from the plants and algae which are well-known to be able to perform photosynthesis, other organisms capable of doing so are some specific species of bacteria especially those which contain the green pigments called chlorophyll necessary for photosynthesis. These bacteria are also capable of absorbing carbon dioxide.</span><span />
Answer:
Explanation:
There are two types of respiration:
1. Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.
Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP
Anaerobic Respiration
It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.
Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide
This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration
Explanation:
Two important ways by which humans have affected the carbon cycle, especially in recent history, are: 1) the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere during the burning of fossil fuels, and 2) the clearing of trees and other plants (deforestation) that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
