The correct answer is option B. The scientists were studying if the mud snails can reproduce both sexually and asexually. The characteristics in the study included parameters such as the mating season, number of offspring, effect of environmental stress conditions and lack of mates. Out of all the parameters being studied can affect asexual reproduction in the mud snail but lack or presence of mates is a parameter required to be studied to determine the mode of reproduction i.e. sexual or asexual because need for mates or mate dependent reproduction occurs in case of sexual reproduction.
Answer:
- In glycolysis, glucose is split into two pyruvate and makes some ATP
- The Krebs cycle produces ATP, NADH and CO2
- NADH gives electrons to the ETC
- As electrons move down the ETC, a H+ gradient is made
- H+ pass through the ATP synthase to make ATP
Explanation:
This question is describing the processes involved in cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the way through which living cells synthesize energy (ATP) by breaking down sugar. Cellular respiration involves three major steps: glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation (electron transport chain).
- Glycolysis is the process whereby glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid or pyruvate with the synthesis of net 2 ATP molecules.
- Kreb's cycle produces ATP, NADH and CO2.
- NADH is an electron carrier that donates electrons to the Electron transport chain (ETC).
- Electrons move down the ETC to produce a proton (H+) gradient
- The proton (H+) passes through an enzyme called ATP synthase to make ATP from ADP molecule.
This is a false statement
In gilled mushrooms, gills are used to maximize spore production. Gills of some mushrooms are folded and crowded to obtain maximum spore production. Other gills, spread towards the outer cap which gives way to new gill growth in between gills which is called partial gill. Some of the mushrooms grow gills in layers too.
