Answer:
Small leaves
Explanation:
These ensure that less water is lost from the plant by transpiration because the leaf has a smaller surface area.
Answer:
Explanation:
Cancer is a disease of uncontrolled cellular growth. Your body has many mechanisms in place to prevent a cell from dividing uncontrollably. But when the DNA of a cell is mutated, the proteins that govern cell cycle activity can be changed, and a cell may be able to circumvent the body's mechanisms
Cellular respiration:
Cellular respiration is the process by which cell break down glucose with oxygen to store the energy as adenine triphosphate or ATP. Energy from ATP is used to help the cell perform daily functions like growing, dividing and repairing itself. Glucose can either be created through photosynthesis in plant cells or ingested in animal cells.
There are four phages of cellular respiration.
• Glycolysis
• Transition stage
• Citric acid cycle
• Electron transport chain
Answer:
C (Chlorophyll)
Explanation:
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy carrying molecule in all living cells. It is the usable form of energy by cells. Organisms are able to carry out cellular functions using the energy carried by ATP molecules. ATP like other molecules is made up of components that make up its chemical structure.
ATP is composed of three structural components; A five-carbon sugar called RIBOSE at the core of its structure, attached to a nitrogenous base called Adenine and phosphate group (three in ATP). The energy in ATP is released when it loses its phosphate component.
Chlorophyll is a pigment found in the Chloroplast of plant cells. It is another molecule that is made up of its own components e.g nitrogen, magnesium etc.
Answer:
Lag Phase
Explanation:
In logistic growth, lag phase is characterized by a slowing population growth because at that moment the cells are metabolically active and are only increasing in cell size.
Let consider a bacterial growth during it lag phase. In the lag phase, bacteria adapt themselves to growth conditions, that period of time, they are still maturing and are yet to divide.
As such, the phase of a population growth curve is characterized by a slowing of population growth as the carrying capacity is being reached is known as Lag Phase.
