Answer:

Those organisms survive and maintain its population who are chosen by natural selection.

Explanation:

This statement means that when the population experiences a new set of environmental conditions, two things are happened i. e. the population either adjusts through natural selection or becomes extinct. The fossil of dinosaur indicates that extinction occur due to changed in the environment. If the population made changes in itself and adapt the environment then the organism survive otherwise extinction occur.

Answer:

4. transforming the energy in glucose and related molecules in a chemical form that cells can use for work

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate which is transformed into acetyl CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle breakdown the acetyl CoA into CO2 and H2O. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. The released energy is stored in the form of NADH and FADH2 as well as in few molecules of ATP.

The NADH and FADH2 enter the final step of cellular respiration, the oxidative phosphorylation. Here, NADH and FADH2 are oxidized with the help of electron transport chain (ETC). During the transfer of electrons through ETC, the proton motive force is generated which then helps in ATP synthesis.

Hence, the three steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis + Kreb's cycle + oxidative phosphorylation) retrieve the energy from nutrients such as glucose and store it in the form of ATP. ATP is used by cells as an energy source for various other functions.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is c) are plant cells.

Explanation:

The cells cannot be animal cells, because they have not wall (this kind of cells has only plasma membrane). In addition, eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles (which are surrounded by a phospholipids membrane, such as endoplasmatic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, etc.), whereas prokaryotic cells lack them. Since plant cells are eukaryotic and bacterial cells are prokaryotic, the cells you are looking are plant cells.
