1. What organisms undergo cellular respiration?

1 answer:

3 0

1. Oxygen is required for cellular respiration and is used to break down nutrients, like sugar, to generate ATP (energy) and carbon dioxide and water (waste). Organisms from all kingdoms of life, including bacteria, archaea, plants, protists, animals, and fungi, can use cellular respiration.
2. Mitochondria are often called the “powerhouses” or “energy factories” of a cell because they are responsible for making adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell's main energy-carrying molecule.
3. Some cells have more mitochondria than others because they need to process more glucose and produce more ATP.
4. The inner membrane folds over many times and creates layered structures called cristae.
5. In physics, a fluid is a substance that continually deforms (flows) under an applied shear stress, or external force. Fluids are a phase of matter and include liquids, gases and plasmas.
6. Cellular respiration is the process through which cells convert sugars into energy. To create ATP and other forms of energy to power cellular reactions, cells require fuel and an electron acceptor which drives the chemical process of turning energy into a useable form.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The correct answer is - transformation.

Explanation:

Griffith's experiment was performed by Fredrick Griffith with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Streptococcus P. are rough non encapsulated streptococci that are converted into smooth encapsulated streptococci bacteria in presence of heat-killed smooth encapsulated bacteria.

This experiment was the first experiment that showed that this bacteria can get DNA by the process of transformation.

He suggested that the nonencapsulated bacteria had been transformed into the encapsulated smooth bacteria strain by the transformation process that was somehow part of the dead encapsulated strain bacteria.

Thus, the correct answer - transformation.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There are a number of lipids that are found in foods and contribute to various functions in the body. Triglycerides are the most common lipid found in food and in the body; they consist of a Glycerol backbone attached to three fatty acids.

Fatty acids are classified based on the degree to which the carbon chain is saturated with Hydrogen

A fatty acid is saturated if it contains no carbon-carbon double bonds, polyunsaturated if it contains two or more carbon-carbon double bonds, and monounsaturated if it has only one carbon-carbon double bond.

The unsaturated fatty acids can exist in one of two structural forms: the trans form occurs when hydrogens on both carbons forming the double bond lie on opposite sides of that bond.

When hydrogens on an unsaturated fatty acid lie on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond, a cis formation exists.

Which best exemplifies the concept of neuroplasticity?

KonstantinChe [14]

The correct answer is "the formation of new brain cell connections as the result of reading a book".

Usually, neuroplasticity is apparent in young children when the central nervous system has an abundance of neurons. This is always in the context of forming new brain cell connections or synapses that will lead the person to access the information quicker. This also exemplifies the principle of use and disuse when it comes to knowledge.

The other choices concerns the skeletal system, cardiovascular system, and the endocrine/reproductive system; all of which do not have a relation with neuroplasticity.
