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.

Hypothesis: If the porosity of three soils are tested, then red clay soil will have the lowest porosity.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, based on the given hypothesis, the question is asking to identify the variables (independent and dependent) of the experiment.

*Independent variable: DIFFERENT SOILS

*Dependent variable: Porosity

Explanation:

- Independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by an experimenter in order to effect a response in another variable. In this question, three different soils were used, hence, the SOIL is the independent variable.

- Dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. It is the variable being measured in an experiment. In this case, the porosity is the variable being measured, hence, it is the dependent variable.

Given a population that contains genetic variation, what is the correct sequence of the following events under the influence of
natali 33 [55]

The correct option is (a) 2 → 4 → 1 → 3

A change occurs in the environment. → Poorly adapted individuals have decreased survivorship. → Well-adapted individuals leave more offspring than do poorly adapted individuals. → Genetic frequencies within the population change.

<h3>What is genetic variation in population?</h3>
  • The presence of various alleles, or different gene versions, within a population indicates genetic variety.
  • If there is genetic variation, then everybody in the population will have various genotypes depending on the alleles they carry.
  • Genetic loci that have many alleles are said to be polymorphic. Human characteristics like blood type and eye color, for instance, are polymorphic.
