What happens during cellular respiration?

Biology
1 answer:
mylen [45]2 years ago

Answer:

Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products. The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions, which break large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy because weak high-energy bonds, in particular in molecular oxygen, are replaced by stronger bonds in the products. Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, some of which are redox reactions. Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction, it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell because of the slow, controlled release of energy from the series of reactions.

Condensation often gathers in the bottom of agar slants. why is it important in this exercise to limit condensation on plates bu
vekshin1
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Because condensation on the slant effects the bacterial growth in the test tube.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • When agar is solidify in the test tube tilted, it takes a shape of slide on one side of the tube which is known as slat.
  • Slant is used instead of petri dishes because they provide more surface area for growth.
  • Water in the slat can invade the test tube, making agar unstable and the bacterial growth on the slat will be affected by moisture in bottom of slant.
  • In petri dishes, it is no big problem of moisture condensation.
