What evolutionary advantage does compartmentalization of core metabolic processes offer eukaryotes?

Biology
1 answer:
Marysya12 [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Compartmentalization increases the efficiency of the process of cellular respiration, leading to higher energy production (ATP).  

Explanation:

In biology, compartmentalization refers to the formation of separate areas within the cell in order to carry out specific cellular functions more efficiently. In a cell, these compartments are usually delimited by lipid layer membranes. In eukaryotic cells, mitochondria (and also chloroplasts in plants) are the most important compartments in terms of metabolic processes. These organelles function to generate energy in the form of ATP by the process of cellular respiration. From an evolutionary perspective, compartmentalization increases the surface area that mitochondria use to generate energy ATP and provides a unique internal medium to carry out these metabolic reactions since oxidative phosphorylation, which the most important process in terms of energy generation, occurs in the mitochondrial matrix.

Helo! i was wondering if anyone could help me of these two questions for biology?
Rom4ik [11]

1) A 2) B

Explanation:

Enzymes are catalyst, meaning that they could be use in several reaction and they speed up any chemical reaction rate. So knowing this, when the animal have more enzymes it will react more quickly with the food, making it digest the food more quickly.

Hope the help, cheers

How does air pressure affect weather
UNO [17]

Answer:

<em>Hewo, Kiluawa (sorry if i spelled it wrong) </em>

Explanation:

High Pressure

Basically, high pressure occurs in an area if the atmosphere over that particular area becomes heavier. As a result, the heavy air above will come down to the Earth’s surface. And the air present in that area will move away to create space for the heavy air.

Commonly, the warmer months experience high pressure. You’re more likely to enjoy a comparatively dry and stable weather pattern in those months. Besides, you’ll find the skies in high pressure areas very clear. You’ll also feel a gentle breeze there that will cool down the surrounding areas.

Low Pressure

On the other hand, the air above a low pressure area is comparatively much lighter than the air below. As the heavy air on the Earth’s surface cannot go further below, it pushes away the lighter air above. As a result, a vacuum is created on the surface level and the air in the surrounding areas rushes towards it to fill up the void space.

Meanwhile, the rising air starts to cool down and form clouds in the sky. These clouds then come down to the Earth in the form of rain. Sometimes, snow is also formed depending on the temperature of the surrounding areas.

In general, colder months of the year experiences more low pressure situations. By now, you probably can guess why. The cold air on the surface level is heavier than the air above. And these low pressure areas are the reasons behind unstable weather conditions like snow, ice, rain, storm, etc.

Hope This Helps!

A normal chromosome and its homolog carrying an inversion are given. the dot (•) represents the centromere. normal: a b c • d e
kotegsom [21]

The type of inversion is Paracentric inversion.

There are two types of inversion at the chromosome level, depending on the centromere:

Paracentric inversions:

the centromere is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions:

The centromere is included in the inversion which can transform a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.

the structure that will form during synapsis is inversion loop.

These inversions are balanced rearrangements but at the moment of meiosis they cause difficulties in pairing. There is most often formation of a pairing loop. The occurrence of recombination in the inverted segment causes the formation of abnormal gametes by duplication / impairment.

There are two species of freshwater shrimp that are introduced to a pond. The first species, Caridina cantonensis, is brightly c
Marina86 [1]

Explanation:

Natural selection is the mechanism that is responsible for the evolution of organisms.  

In the given case, the Freshwater shrimp has been introduced to a pond in which the two species with variations are introduced.  

The <em>C. cantonensis </em>is brighter in color whereas the <em>C. multidentata</em> is mottled drab in color. The predator fish can feed easily on the species which is brighter therefore <em>C. cantonensis</em> is more susceptible. The mottled drab species is not easily predated by the species.  

The 30 % offsprings of <em>C. cantonensis</em> can survive till the reproductive age  whereas 75% of C. multidentata. This shows that natural selection has acted on the color of the shrimp species selected against the predator fish species.

The species with mottled drab color is the result of the differential reproductive rate.
