Answer:

Oxygen and glucose are both essential for energy production.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the break down of sugar with or without the presence of oxygen to provide energy to our cells. The energy for the cell is in the form of ATP. In the presence of oxygen the process is much more efficient and is the last step in oxidative phosphorylation. In this process the Oxygen will pick up the protons that have driven the proton motif force that was used to turn the ATPase that was used to make ATP. The oxygen picks up these protons and keeps the cell pH stable and this is called metabolic water. The Dr should check the blood for the presence of both glucose and oxygen.

Answer: 5'-TATGCTGATCAGCCCTGGTATAG-3'

Explanation:

DNA consists of 4 nucleotides; Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G), which serve as it's building block. The nucleotides are linked by 3', 5' phosphodiester bonds.

Phosphodiester bonds are bonds that join two nucleotides together.

Guanine (G) which always pairs with Cytosine (C) and Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T). Percentage of A usually equals that of T while that of C usually equals G. This is known as Chargaff's rule.

So, to write the sequence of the complementary strand, you interchange the nucleotides with their corresponding partner.

which protist exhibits both animal-like and plant-like characteristics?a protist that has pseudopods and swims by using ciliaa p

Ad libitum [116K]

I guess it is euglena because, i<span>t's a plant like protist, it contains chlorophyll and carries out photosynthesis. The eyespots function as a light shield which allows light from a certain direction to strike the light detector.
it doesn' have a cell wall because it is "plant-like," not a plant,
it has a pellicle that provides strength and flexibility since it lacks a cell wall</span>
