Answer:
1. Chloroplast
2. cellular respiration
3. ATP
4. C6H1206(s) + 02(g) -- CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy
Explanation:
This question is describing the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis occurs in the CHLOROPLAST, which is responsible for the conversion of solar energy (from sun) into chemical energy (in glucose). The general photosynthetic reaction is:
6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) + energy → C6H12O6(s) + O2(g)
Contrarily, the process of cellular respiration occurs in the MITOCHONDRIA. Cellular respiration involves the breaking down of food molecules to synthesize ATP (energy) for use during biochemical reactions. The general chemical reaction is as follows:
C6H1206(s) + 02(g) → CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy
Answer:
The original organism is called the <u><em>parent (ancestor)</em></u> , and new organisms are called the <u><em>offspring</em></u>.
Explanation:
Reproduction is one of the characteristics of life. Every living organism tends to give rise to another organism. The organism which gives rise to another organism is termed as the parent. The organism which is born is known as the offspring.
There are two basic methods of reproduction. An organism can give rise to another organism by the method of asexual or sexual reproduction.
During asexual reproduction, identical copies of the parent organism are made. During sexual reproduction, two organisms reproduce to produce non-identical offsprings.
<span>The propositions are:
a. forms glucose from </span><span>noncarbohydrates
b. does all of these
c. destroys damaged red blood cells
d. stores vitamin D
e. forms urea
The right answer is: B. </span>does all of these
*The liver plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates:- gluconeogenesis (manufacture of a new glucose molecule from a non-carbohydrate molecule);- glycogenolysis (release of glucose from glycogen) under the effect of glucagon;- gluconeogenesis (storage of glucose in the form of glycogen) under the effect of insulin
*It stores fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, K and E) and glycogen.*It converts ammonia to urea (detoxification)<span>*It recycles substances from the senescent red blood cells.</span>
Answer:
chitin
Explanation:
chitin is a complex carbohydrates, similar to cellulose, that makes up organic structure, such as the cell walls of fungi and exoskeletons of insects and other arthropods.
<h2>Primates </h2>
Explanation:
Primates are a group of animals has flexible hands and feet, large brains in relation to body size, forward-looking eyes, and arms that can rotate in a circle around the shoulder joint
- Primates include the lemurs,lorises,monkeys,apes and humans
- The order Primates, with its 300 or more species, is the third most diverse order of mammals, after rodents and bats
- The Primates order is divided informally into three main groups: prosimians, monkeys of the New World, and monkeys and apes of the Old World
- All primates have five fingers (pentadactyly), a generalized dental pattern, and a primitive body plan
- Another distinguishing feature of primates is fingernails
- Opposing thumbs are also a characteristic primate feature
- When compared with body weight, the primate brain is larger than that of other terrestrial mammals, and it has a fissure unique to primates that separates the first and second visual areas on each side of the brain
- The eyes face forward in all primates so that the eyes visual fields overlap
- Fossils of the earliest primates date to the Early Eocene Epoch (56 million to 40 million years ago) or perhaps to the Late Paleocene Epoch (59 million to 56 million years ago)
