Answer: Cellular respiration is the process by which microorganisms obtain the energy available in carbohydrates. They take the carbohydrates into their cytoplasm, and through a complex series of metabolic processes, they break down the carbohydrate and release the energy. The energy is generally not needed immediately, so it is used to combine ADP with phosphate ions to form ATP molecules. During the process of cellular respiration, carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product. This carbon dioxide can be used by photosynthesizing cells to form new carbohydrates. Also in the process of cellular respiration, oxygen gas is required to serve as an acceptor of electrons. This oxygen gas is identical to the oxygen gas given off in photosynthesis.

Capsular hydrostatic pressure is the chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood and across the filtration membrane.

frozen [14]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Capsular hydrostatic pressure is not the main force that pushes water and solutes out of the blood and through the filtration membrane. On the contrary, this pressure acts against the filtration membrane, making it difficult for water and solutes to escape from the blood.

Increasing this pressure decreases the infiltration rate and causes obstruction of the urinary tract that tends to accumulate urine, causing a lot of pain to the patient with Renal Failure.

Describe how a eukaryotic cell can be viewed as four interacting systems: the nucleus, cytosol, endomembrane system, and semiaut

mars1129 [50]

Answer and explanation;

Nucleus; houses a cell's DNA and its processes include protein, replication and packaging for cell division. It is also the site for transcription.

Cytosol; coordinates a responsible to the environment, metabolism and motor proteins.

Endomembrane system; includes the nuclear envelope (surrounds nucleus), rough and smooth ER, golgi body, lysosomes?vacuoles, peroxisome and plasma membrane.

Semiautonomous organelles; mitochondria (animals) and chloroplast (plants) which provide energy for the cell.
