Answer:

The correct answer is - glucose is broken down into cellular energy (ATP).

Explanation:

Mitochondria is the double membrane cell organelle presents in all eukaryotic cells that produce the energy by the process of cellular respiration from the food to the cell to perform its day to day functions.

The cellular respiration is the process that involves the braking of the sugars into simple molecules and these catabolic reaction produce energy with CO2 and water as waste. The energy is stored in the form of ATP which is generated in the inner membrane of mitochondria. ATP is used by the cell to perform its function.

Thus, the prower house of the cell is mitochondria.

Adh helps to conserve water during dehydration. <br> a. True <br> b. False
AlladinOne [14]
The Anti-diuretic Hormone helps to control blood pressure by acting on the kidneys and the blood vessels. Its most important role is to conserve the fluid volume of your body by reducing the amount of water passed out in the urine. And so in times of dehydration it could help your body save more water. I think the statement is correct.

Which way should an arrow point between a producer and consumer in a food web? Why​
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The arrow should be pointing from the producer towards the consumer.

Producer --> Consumer

Explanation:

The arrow represents the flow of energy in a food web. Producers are the first source of energy, as they make their own food. The energy is then transferred to the consumer when they eat the producer. For example, if a cow were to eat grass, the energy would flow from the grass to the cow. The arrow shows how this energy is flowing from the first source to the second.
