Answer:

Antioxidants help cells perform their functions against something called free radicals. Free radicals are molecules that happen to be produced when your body breaks down food and/or when you inhale or are exposed to tobacco products. These molecules play a role in leading to diseases such as; Heart disease and cancer. When plants synthesize, they collect many non-enzymatic Antioxidants like ascorbic acid and phenolic. Since plants have many more sites of ROS generation, Therefore, they could evolve more efficient non-enzymatic Antioxidant systems than humans because of their high intake and exposure to oxygen. (answer yourself about the structure in your own words using the information I gave you). Diet relates to both the function, structure and health of your cells. Having a balanced diet helps your cells to happily work and produce energy for your daily use. A balanced diet supplies your body with nutrients so it can work effectively. Without balanced nutrition, your body is way more prone to disease, fatigue, low performance and infections.

I hope this helped you!

What membrane activities requires energy from atp hydrolysis?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

active transport, like Na + ions leaving the cell

Explanation:

The active transport requires an energy expenditure to transport the molecule from one side of the membrane to the other, but the active transport is the only one that can transport molecules against a concentration gradient, just as the diffusion facilitated the active transport is limited by the number of transport proteins present.

Two major categories of active, primary and secondary transport are of interest. The primary active transport uses energy (generally obtained from ATP hydrolysis), at the level of the same membrane protein producing a conformational change that results in the transport of a molecule through the protein.

The best known example is the Na + / K + pump. The Na + / K + pump performs a countertransport ("antyport") transports K + into the cell and Na + outside it, at the same time, spending on the ATP process.

The secondary active transport uses energy to establish a gradient across the cell membrane, and then uses that gradient to transport a molecule of interest against its concentration gradient.

Crossing over occurs during which phase of meiosis
grandymaker [24]

prophase

Further genetic variation comes from crossing over, which may occur during prophase I of meiosis. In prophase I of meiosis, the replicated homologous pair of chromosomes comes together in the process called synapsis, and sections of the chromosomes are exchanged.

Hope it helps!

What is a source of variation in asexual reproduction ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
When alleles are recombined during sexual reproduction, they can produce dramatically different phenotypes. Thus, sexual reproduction is a major source of variation within many population. Asexual<span> production is when there is one parent that produces offspring that are identical to the parent. Basically a copy of the parents DNA.

Your answer in short is B
