Answer: ATP

Explanation:

ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is a molecules which is considered as a main source of potential energy which is required by the cell for metabolism. The ATP molecule releases energy when phosphodiester bonds are broken in this process ATP is converted into ADP.

The molecules of ATP are produced by oxidative reactions occurring in the cytoplasm and mitochondria in which the process of cellular respiration takes place.

ATP. The potential energy is stored in the high-energy phosphate bonds due to the negative charges of each phosphate repulsing each other. Cells break the phosphate-phosphate bonds when they use ATP, so the released energy is used to do kinetic work.

The exposure of mixture of inorganic compounds by the lightening lead to the formation of organic molecules like amino acids which are the building blocks of life. This was similar to the penetration of earth atmosphere by UV radiation producing the organic compounds from inorganic molecules.

Explain the law's of segregation and independent assortment.
VikaD [51]

I hope this helps.

Explanation: The law of segregation states that the two alleles of a single trait will separate randomly, meaning that there is a 50% either allele will end up in either gamete. This has to do with 1 gene. The law of independent assortment states that the allele of one gene separates independently of an allele of another gene.

Dysentery can lead to ________ and/or organ failure if medical attention is not sought in time.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

Dysentery is an abnormal condition that is caused by the infection of the intestine in humans. The infection could be caused by the bacteria or the amoeba.

The disease can be characterized by the cramps in the stomach, diarrhea, and the loss of blood through feces.

Untreated dysentery can lead to the loss of a large amount of blood through feces and will lower the amount of blood in humans.

This severe loss of blood will give rise to another disease called hypovolemic shock is which the heart fails to pump enough blood to the organs due to which the other organs of the body can fail to work properly.  This condition can lead to death.

Thus, Option-B is correct.
