Answer:
A. The bacteria are breaking down sugars in the absence of oxygen.
Explanation:
Bacteria are microscopic single-celled organims. These organisms may produce their own source of chemical energy, or consume and absorb chemical energy made by producers.
They break down chemical energy like glucose through lactic acid fermentation in their cytoplasm, without the presence of oxygen.
In Glycolysis:
2 molecules of ATP are used to break up glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules. Since 2 ATP are used, a net 2ATP are produced by this process.
Then, pyruvate is converted to lactic acid, producing 2 NAD+, used as electron carriers.
Cyclins
are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing
of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent
kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other
molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk
complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move
to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk
is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>
<span>Sheet fractures are accurate fractures defining slabs of rock that range from 0.5 to 10 meters thick. They normally form in sets parallel to the Earth's surface but may form in convex-upward or concave-upward sets. The most popular hypothesis of the formation of sheet fractures is that they are the result of expansion and tangential fracturing consequent on erosion offloading or pressure release.</span>
Answer:
"My nutritionist measures energy content of food by using a bomb calorimeter."
Explanation
Animals humans included eat food in order to get chemical energy through cellular respiration either aerobically or anaerobically.
Therefore, food energy is the amount of chemical energy that can be derived from food.
Food energy can be measured using a bomb calorimeter and the unit of measurement is calories.
So when the client made the statement and mentioned energy content in food being measured by a calorimeter, it shows the client had an understanding on how energy in food is measured.
