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.

Why are proteins so small but so important to living organisms .

AleksAgata [21]

Explanation: because carry out all the functions in the human body necessary for living. Proteins make up hormones that are required for living. Insulin - responsible for stabilising blood sugar. Haemoglobin - responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. Melatonin - responsible for helping us get to sleep. Adrenalin - responsible for the flight-fight-freeze response. There are many more but here are just a few.

Answer:

Translation is the process in which ribosomes in the cytoplasm or endoplasmic reticulum synthesize proteins. The process starts where the mRNAs (messenger RNA) copies the DNA and sends this message to the ribosome. In the ribosome for each triplet of nucleotide an amino acid is bond to the growing chain of amino acid that will eventually form a protein.

You can look up for the translation for the genetic on the internet. Which tells you which triplet codifies for an specific amino acid.

If the code reads. CGC GCG CGC GCG etc.

The result would be an a peptide/protein containing alternating arginines and alanines, because CGC codifies for Arginine and GCG codifies for alanine.

U just check a few of them and pretty much close the app then they should be cleared :)
