What two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration? * H2O and CO2 H2O and C6H12O6 CO2 and C6H12O6 ATP and CO2
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The two compounds that correspond to waste products of cellular respiration are H₂O and CO₂.

Explanation:

The cellular metabolic waste products, specifically from cellular respiration are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), from the oxidation of glucose into energy.

The process of <u>cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions</u> where, from a glucose molecule, energy is obtained in the form of ATP molecules.

Obtaining H₂O and CO₂ from glucose can be summarized with the schematic reaction:

                                 <em>C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂</em>

This summary indicates that a glucose molecule, when oxidized, produces as waste 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide. To reach this process all the reactions of the oxidative phosphorylation occur and 24 molecules of ATP are obtained for each molecule of glucose.

For the other options it is important to mention that:

  • <em><u>C₆H₁₂O₆</u></em><em> is the substrate from which cellular respiration takes place. </em>
  • <em><u>ATP </u></em><em>is the final product of cellular respiration, translated into energy to be used by the cell.</em>

Compare and contrast p-dependent and p-independent termination of transcription in prokaryotes.
iVinArrow [24]
Compare and contrast two mechanisms for transcriptional termination in bacteria.

(rho)p-dependent termination: requires rut (rho utilization site), rho protein binds, moves towards 3' end, DNA encodes GC rich for stem loop, RNApoly pauses, rho protein catches up and separates RNA-DNA hybrid

(rho)p-independent termination: Uracil-rich sequence causes RNApoly to pause, stabilized by NusA near open complex RNA exit, UA bonds to weak to hold, DNA-RNA hybrid dissociates AKA intrinsic termination

Why are the epidermis layers of the leaf coated in a waxy cuticle
Andrews [41]

Answer:

prevent excessive loss of water

Explanation:

The epidermis is a single layer of cells covering all plant organs. The epidermal cells are elongated in the direction of stem length and flattened. They have no chloroplast and their outer walls are covered by a waxy cuticle that prevents excessive loss of water through evaporation. The cuticle also protects the inner tissues from infection and mechanical injury.
