Question

Please please guys I need help for this all question in biology.

Answer 1

1) Photosynthesis takes in the carbon dioxide produced by all breathing organisms and reintroduces oxygen into the atmosphere. Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy.

Carbon dioxide + Water + solar energy → Glucose + Oxygen. 6CO2 + 6H2O + solar energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2. Carbon dioxide + Water + solar energy → Glucose + Oxygen + Water. 6CO2 + 12H2O+ solar energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O. CO2 + 2H2S + light energy → (CH2O) + H2O + 2S.

2) Cellular Respiration: Change food into energy the cell and body can use. ... Cellular respiration break down food such as sugar and release the energy they contain in a cell. This happens in both plant and animal cells.

Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

3) Like a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes, but a eukaryotic cell is typically larger than a prokaryotic cell, has a true nucleus (meaning its DNA is surrounded by a membrane), and has other membrane-bound organelles that allow for compartmentalization of functions.

4) Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules. Water molecules move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration. Facilitated diffusion on the other side involves insoluble compounds such as sugars, amino acids and ions which can pass through a partially permeable membrane.

5) Mitosis, a process of cell duplication, or reproduction, during which one cell gives rise to two genetically identical daughter cells. Strictly applied, the term mitosis is used to describe the duplication and distribution of chromosomes, the structures that carry the genetic information.

During mitosis, when the nucleus divides, the two chromatids that make up each chromosome separate from each other and move to opposite poles of the cell. This is shown in Figure below. Mitosis actually occurs in four phases. The phases are called prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

6) The function of DNA is to store all of the genetic information that an organism needs to develop, function, and reproduce. Essentially, it is the biological instruction manual found in each of your cells. The instructions in DNA are written in a simple alphabet that has just four letters—A, T, C, and G.

7) There are three types of DNA Mutations: base substitutions, deletions and insertions. Single base substitutions are called point mutations, recall the point mutation Glu -----> Val which causes sickle-cell disease. Point mutations are the most common type of mutation and there are two types.

Harmful mutations may cause genetic disorders or cancer. A genetic disorder is a disease caused by a mutation in one or a few genes. A human example is cystic fibrosis. A mutation in a single gene causes the body to produce thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs and blocks ducts in digestive organs.

8) Eukaryotic chromosomes are located within the nucleus, whereas prokaryotic chromosomes are located in the nucleoid. The key difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus (and membrane-bound organelles), whereas prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus.

9) The most obvious difference between Haploid and Diploid is the number of chromosome sets that are found in the nucleus. Haploid cells are those that have only a single set of chromosomes while diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes.

Eukaryotic chromosomes are located within the nucleus, whereas prokaryotic chromosomes are located in the nucleoid. The key difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus (and membrane-bound organelles), whereas prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus.

10) Meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information. These cells are our sex cells – sperm in males, eggs in females. During meiosis one cell divides twice to form four daughter cells.

Sister chromatids separate during a second round, called meiosis II. Since cell division occurs twice during meiosis, one starting cell can produce four gametes (eggs or sperm). In each round of division, cells go through four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
