Answer;

Oxygen or an oxidizing agent to receive electrons must be present for oxidation to occur in chemical reactions.

Explanation;

Oxidation entails the loss of electrons from these molecules, causing them to become unstable and highly reactive and leading to their eventual reaction with and damage of cell components such as membranes.

-In redox reaction; The ion or molecule that accepts electrons is called the oxidizing agent; by accepting electrons it causes the oxidation of another species. Conversely, the species that donates electrons is called the reducing agent; when the reaction occurs, it reduces the other species.

Answer:

VII. Anaphase II

Explanation:

During metaphase II, fibers of the spindle apparatus drive chromosomes to the cell equatorial plane, where they line up. Sister chromatids are holden together until they reach <u>Anaphase II</u><u>,</u> during which specialized enzymes break the bonds between chromatids and separate them. Each chromatid migrates to one of the poles. In telophase II, the new chromosomes are already in the corresponding poles, and the nuclear membrane forms again in each pole

Use the following terms to describe in detail how you visually perceive an object that you can see right now.

Answer: To see for example an apple first light that passes through the pupil is eventually reflected on the pupil, activating neurons in the retina. light waves that were reflected off the apple are changed into neural impulses (transduction) at the point of the retina, where neurons fire in response to light waves. Action potentials are released when neurons fire, sending an electrical charge through the neuron. Excitatory neurotransmitters are released when the action potential reaches the axon terminal, and that these neurotransmitters increase the chances that the next neuron will fire. Of course the neural message from the retina first passes through the thalamus, and then the thalamus routes the impulse elsewhere in the brain.

I hope it helps, Regards.

As a child, Alex was short for his age. But during his teenage years, his height increased and he surpassed most of his friends.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

B. Cells in Alex’s body underwent mitosis to create new tissue

Explanation:

Mitosis is the cell division that forms two genetically identical daughter cells from one parent cell. It occurs in somatic cells and is responsible for the growth and development of individuals.

Alex gained the height as the cells in tissues of his body underwent the mitosis and produced new daughter cells. Repeated cycles of mitosis added a large number of new cells to his body to form new tissues in his body parts and caused an increase in his height.
