Classify the following organisms into their respective kingdoms (i) Yeast (ii) Penicillium (iii) Rhizobium (iv) Mushroom (v) Amo
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

(i) Yeast- Kingdom Fungi

(ii) Penicillium- Kingdom Fungi

(iii) Rhizobium- Kingdom Eubacteria

(iv) Mushroom- Kingdom Fungi

(v) Amoeba- Kingdom Protista

(vi) fish- Kingdom Animalia

Explanation:

Living organisms were classified into a large group called KINGDOM, which represent the largest and most generic grouping consisting of organisms that share a few similarities. The kingdoms that living organisms were classified into are as follows: Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, Protista, Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, etc.

Based on the question, the mentioned organisms are classified into the following kingdoms:

(I) Yeast: Yeast is a unicellular microbe classified under the Kingdom Fungi due to possession of chitin in its cell wall and other similar features with members of kingdom Fungi.

ii) Penicillium- Penicillium is a genus classified under the Kingdom Fungi.

(iii) Rhizobium- Rhizobium is a genus of prokaryotic organism (lack membrane-bound nucleus and organnelles) classified under the Kingdom Eubacteria.

(iv) Mushroom- Mushrooms are saprophytic (heterotrophic) species of organisms classified under the Kingdom Fungi.

(v) Amoeba- Amoeba is a genus of unicellular eukaryotes classified under the Kingdom Protista.

(vi) fish- Fishes are organisms classified under the Kingdom Animalia

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A. If the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt."

D. The rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.

Explanation:

It is important to consider that Kenny hikes all day but at a steady pace, whereas Janelle runs very fast. So Kenny's case, the supply of oxygen is sufficient to maintain aerobic respiration within the muscle cells. During this process only CO2, Water, and ATP are produced; therefore, there is no oxygen debt. We should keep in mind that the body shifts to anaerobic metabolism only when the supply of oxygen is limited.

In Janelle's case, running fast would need energy at higher rates and the supply of oxygen would not be sufficient to generate a high amount of ATPs. Therefore, to compensate for this deficiency, cells will start fermenting glucose to lactic acid and produce ATP and maintain energy demands. This lactic acid causes fatigue and this is why Janelle has aching and breathing hard. Breathing hard is also automatic reflux to inhale more oxygen and meet oxygen demands but even breathing hard would not be able to make it and the body will shift to anaerobic respiration automatically.
