Does glycolysis occur inside or outside the mitochondria
icang [17]

Answer: Glycolysis occurs outside the mitochondria in the cytoplasm of the cell.


Glycolysis is a metabolic process in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate ( 3 carbon containing molecule) and produces energy molecules as 2 ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) and 2 NADH molecules. Glucose is one of the most important energy fuel that is utilized by living organisms.


Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of all living cells. Thus, it occurs outside the mitochondria.

How did people acquired immunity to a disease before the development of vaccines
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Exposure to the disease

Explanation:

Before vaccines,  the only way to develop immunity to a disease was to be exposed to the disease-causing pathogen without being harmed by it. A good example of this is smallpox, which was also the first vaccine developed. It was noticed that milk maids weren't catching and dying from small pox like everyone else, because they had been exposed to cowpox. This premise was used to create the first vaccine.

Vaccines give you immunity by injecting you with a small amount of a (usually inactive) pathogen. inside your body.  This means your immune system produces antibodies against it. Similar to what happened with the milkmaids.

how would you use the scientific method to answer this question: do mice live longer when they are fed high-sugar diets
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The question: Do mice live longer when they are fed high sugar diets?

Hypothesis: There are two hypothesis the null hypothesis which we assume is correct, it states that a high sugar diet will have no effect on the life span of a mouse and an alternate hypothesis that we accept if evidence shows that sugar does increase the life span if mice. It says a high sugar diet does incerease the life span of mice.

Prediction: Assume that the null hypothesis is correct. High sugar diets will not increase the life span of the mice.

Collect data through experimentation. Use some mice as a 'control'. These mice will not undergo any changes but will be kept for comparison. Expose some other mice to high sugar diets and the compare the outcome with the 'control' mice.  

Analyzing: From the experiment this you can choose which hypothesis you are going to accept. I.e. null: no change or alternate: there was a change and do some extra research to back up your hypothesis.

Hope this helps :)
