Answer:

In the eukaryotic ell, the aerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria as well as the cytoplasm. The Electron Transport Chain (ETC) that yields the maximum ATPs is located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. So, the NADH made during the glycolysis in cytoplasm have to be transferred to the mitochondria using the shuttle system and for this, 2 ATPs are consumed. However, in the bacterial cell, since there is no mitochondria, the whole process of respiration occurs within the cytoplasm so no ATP is consumed in transporting across the organelle. Therefore, 38 ATPs are made form one glucose in bacteria while 36 are made in an eukaryotic cell.

Hence, the correct answer is '38'

What is significant about areas in the dna that contain repeated segments?

BigorU [14]

Areas in the DNA that contain repeated segments are the basis for DNA fingerprinting.

DNA fingerprinting is used to check whether there is a family relation between two persons. It is also used to identify the organisms that may be reasons for diseases. Furthermore, DNA fingerprinting are used in solving crimes.

The human genome is the basic genetic code, or blueprint, for the transfer of traits from parents to offspring through – . Study

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of options but the complete question is in the attached picture below.

The human genome is the basic genetic code, or blueprint, for the transfer of traits from parents to offspring through -hereditary transmission- . Studying this code -has revealed- ways to partially correct genetic defects after birth. It is already clear that behavior is rarely controlled by -a single gene- . Rather, almost all behavior involves -multiple genes- , and often specific -environmental- factors influence how genes are expressed.

It would be noted that some of the options were not chosen at all, this is because this question focuses on genes and it's expression. "Nurture and education" and "psychological" are not factors that actually affect gene expression. Also, studying genetic codes has already revealed partial ways to correct genetic defects and hence it would be wrong to choose "may in time reveal". For instance, there are procedures used to identify genetic defects in the spermatozoa of a male which can be screened out and the "good" sperm used to fertilize an egg in-vitro.
