Explain the reactions from

Biology

Sergio [31]2 years ago

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the stage where glucose is broken down into 2 pyruvates (3 carbon compounds). This occurs in the cytoplasm and produces 2 ATP molecules. The pyruvates enters the mitochondria and enters the link reactions where it combines with co enzyme A (CoA). Decarboxylation ( removal of CO2) and dehydrogenation (removal of H) occurs here. Since CO2 is removed from the pyruvate it means a carbon is removed. This produces a 2 carbon compounds called acetyl. The acetyl compound is what combines with the CoA to form a compound called acetylCoA. This compound then enters the Krebs cycle.

The CoA co enzyme leaves and the acetyl reacts with a four carbon compound called oxaloacetate. This then forms a 6 carbon compound compound called citrate. A series of dehydrogenation and decarboxylation reactions occur to convert the 6 carbon compound back to oxalaoactate( the 4 carbon sugar). An ATP molecule is formed during one spin of the Krebs cycle.

The electron transport chain is where the reduced NAD (formed from dehydrogenation in glycolyisis, the link reactions and Krebs cycle) and Reduced FAD ( formed from dehydrogenation in the krebs cycle). molecules pass along a series of electrom carriers where they release energy that will be used to make ATP. Oxygen is the last electron carriers

I tried to sum it up as best as possible. If you want in detail explanations of each then I can explain it also.

Which statement is true for both plants and animals? Plants and animals both use sunlight to generate ATP for energy. Plants and
KengaRu [80]

Answer is  Plants and animals both break a phosphate bond of ATP to release energy.

In both plants and animals adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the main molecule for storing and transferring energy in cells. It is also called the energy currency of the cell.  ATP molecule composed of three phosphate groups. These phosphate groups are linked to one another by two high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds. When energy is required by the cell, one a phosphoanhydride is bond broken removing one phosphate. As a result energy is released and ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

Verizon [17]

Answer: The arrows in a food chain show the flow of energy

Explanation: Primary Consumers (eat producers) The arrows in a food chain show the flow of energy, from the sun or hydrothermal vent to a top predator. ... Primary consumers are animals that eat primary producers; they are also called herbivores (plant-eaters).

Do you think that all pollen germinates indiscriminately on all stigmas?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Pollen tube growth is one of the most fascinating—and essential—phenomena in the life cycle of flowering plants. After a compatible interaction between pollen grains and the stigma surface, the pollen germinates and forms the pollen tube, which grows through the stigma, style, and transmitting tract to deliver the sperm cells to the ovule." 
2) Although pollens of many species germinate in simple aqueous media, stigmas do not provide satisfactory sites for the germination of most foreign pollen... Stigmas not only provide the proper conditions for the germination of pollen from their particular species, they actively inhibit the germination of pollen of many unrelated species.

How does aero and anaerobic respreastion differ
saveliy_v [14]
Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy.

anaerobic respiration also produces energy and uses glucose but it produces less energy and does not require oxygen.
