Answer: glycolysis in the cytoplasm

step-by-step-explanation: Pyruvate is produced by glycolysis in the cytoplasm, but pyruvate oxidation takes place in the mitochondrial matrix (in eukaryotes). So, before the chemical reactions can begin, pyruvate must enter the mitochondrion, crossing its inner membrane and arriving at the matrix

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.

Can you tell the difference between the original and the replicated strand
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Original strand is the old strand and replicated strand is new strand.

Explanation:

DNA is replicated by the semi-conservative way which means the new strand is replicated over the old strand and one DNA duplex has one new strand and one old strand. So the original strand is the old strand and the replicated strand is the strand that is synthesized over the original strand.

In DNA the replicated strand is made by adding nucleotides complementary to the opposite nucleotide present in the template or original strand. Adenine and thymine make complementary base pairing with each other and guanine and cytosine makes complementary base pairing with each other.
