If ethyl alcohol contains almost as much energy as the original pyruvic acid, what can you infer about the efficiency of ferment

shusha [124]

Explanation:

Fermentation has a comparatively low efficiency as it produces the same amount of energy, whereas aerobic respiration produces up to 38 molecules of ATP .

Aerobic respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

Within cells, aerobic respiration may not occur due to several factors:

- a lack of inorganic, final electron acceptors
-incomplete or lack of a complete electron transport system
-missing genes for enzymes within the Kreb's cycle

Thus, they utilize other means for the generation of energy in the form of ATP and to replenish NAD+ an oxidized form of NADH, the main electron carrier in glycolysis. Pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm via glycolysis- it is also used as an electron acceptor in a process called fermentation.

Net production of ATP in fermentation: 2 ATP
Net production of ATP in aerobic respiration ≈38 ATP

Further Explanation:

overall in aerobic respiration: C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP which is produced. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. Electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria.

This forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons flow or re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the electron transport, three molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water...

Glycolysis: occurs in the cytoplasm 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules. (2 ATP are utilized for a net ATP of 2)
The Citric acid or Kreb's cycle: in the mitochondrial matrix- 6 molecules of CO2 are produced by combining oxygen and the carbon within pyruvate, 2 ATP oxygen molecules, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2.
The electron transport chain, ETC: in the inner mitochondrial membrane, 34 ATP, electrons combine with H+ split from 10 NADH, 4 FADH2, renewing the number of electron acceptors and 3 oxygen; this forms 6 H2O, 10 NAD+, 4 FAD.

The Canada lynx is a rare wildcat in Minnesota. The lynx has large "snowshoe' like feet that enables it to walk on top of deep,

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: B) Predator/prey

=========================================================

Explanation:

The lynx is the predator that hunts and eats the snowshoe hare, which is the prey.

The graph shows that when the hare population is large, so is the predator population because they rely on the hares as a source of food. However, the more predators there are, the less prey there will be. This causes the prey population to decrease. In turn, this decrease causes the predator population to decrease as well. If there's less food, then some of the lynx population will starve to death.

At some point, the hare population will rebound and go back up due to less predators eating them. They have a better chance to survive. As the hare population goes up, so does the lynx population. They're both strongly linked together, and we have this cyclic pattern the graph indicates. You could say this is "the cycle of life" or "cycle of nature" so to speak.

This is a very simplistic viewpoint because it does not account for other factors such as other predators and other prey, and it also doesn't take account of things like habitat loss for instance. Despite that, such predator-prey models are still useful to understand the connection between the two species.

Identify the four postulates of natural selection.A challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species came from embryology

victus00 [196]

<h2>Postulates of natural selection</h2>

Explanation:

Early in development, all vertebrate embryos are remarkably similar. The similarities among the embryos imply that the development of all vertebrates (having a backbone) evolved as new genetic instructions were placed on Top of older ones.
The chick embryo is on the right. It is easier to compare a newly hatched chick and a newborn baby. After birth, a backbone or vertebrae are clearly visible, as are legs, a mouth, a pair of eyes, etc. The chick’s Skeletal system, in general, has multiple similarities to ours, including having one bone in the upper leg and upper wing and two bones in the lower leg and lower wing. This mimics our arm and leg skeletal structures.
Mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish, look very similar at the earliest stages of growth inside the womb of the mother animal.Vertebrate embryos begin developing similar features due to related ancestors. As the embryo grows, it may drop some of these ancestral traits as the genetic code becomes more specific for that species.

Which of the following descriptions applies to most protists?

siniylev [52]

The correct answer is (c.) unicellular eukaryotes. Unicellular eukaryotes apply to most protists. Protists are grouping of eukaryotic cells that do not form any natural group. These eukaryotes include the Golgi apparatus and mitochondria, and for plants they include chloroplasts.

Reika [66]

Answer:

<em>Plants </em>are generally considered the best indicators of the level of succession in an ecosystem. Explain how you got your answer.

Explanation:

Plants are generally forms the basis of life in any environment, other organism strictly depends for survival and continuation of life as they are the only autotrophs in the food chain. The best indicator of the level of succession in an ecosystem remains the plant
