Explanation:
Like all other organisms, plants require energy to grow and thrive in their environment. The process of cellular respiration allows plants to break down glucose into ATP.
Although plants use photosynthesis to produce glucose, they use cellular respiration to release energy from the glucose.
They don't have the same properties of a star fish
Answer:
oxytocin
Explanation:
The pituitary gland is a small gland that divides into two distinct portions, the anterior and posterior lobes, and is located at the base of the brain.
The anterior pituitary, also known as the adenohypophysis, secretes six important peptide hormones, they are:
- The growth hormone;
- Adrenocorticotropin;
- The thyroid stimulating hormone;
- Prolactin;
- Two gonadotropic homons - FSH and LH;
Oxytocin is not a hormone produced by the anterior pituitary but by the posterior pituitary, which is known as the neurohypophysis.

A:Any of a group of complex organic macromolecules that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and usually sulfur and are composed of one or more chains of amino acids. Proteins are fundamental components of all living cells and include many substances, such as enzymes, hormones, and antibodies, that are necessary for the proper functioning of an organism. They are essential in the diet of animals for the growth and repair of tissue and can be obtained from foods such as meat, fish, eggs, milk, and legumes.</span>
Answer:
a. ATP generating; ATP utilizing
Explanation:
The energy charge is defined as the chart or index which is used to measure the energy of any biological cell.
This concept was proposed by the Atkinson and Walton in 1968 based on the principle that energy is stored in the adenine nucleotide in an organism that is ATP, ADP and AMP.
2 ADP= ATP+ AMP or ATP+ 1/2 ADP/ ATP+ADP+AMP
The energy charge value lies between the 0.6 to 1.0 and if the value rises towards the 1, suggests that the ATP demanding reaction is occurring more than the ATP synthesizing reactions.
Therefore in the given question, when the EC is 0.9, the ATP generating enzymes are low compared to the ATP demanding enzymes.
Thus, Option-A is correct.
