Answer: The correct answer is A) It stores the energy from the glucose in the bonds between the phosphate groups.
ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) is considered as a form of chemical energy as the energy is stored in the high energy phosphoanhydride bonds, which are present between phosphate.
Whenever a body requires energy, glucose is metabolized and produces ATP. The energy from glucose molecule is stored in the ATP.
When ATP is hydrolyzed, it is converted into ADP ( adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate and the large amount of energy is released.
Answer:
The correct answer is - Grant's research on finches on the Galapagos islands.
Explanation:
Grant's research was made on medium-sized finches on the Galapagos islands showed evolutionary processes in real-time. He showed that due to the drought there is a decrease in the number of small and soft seeds that were finches major food source.
It is known that there are different beak sizes in this finch species, the finches with larger beaks could feed on tough and large seeds and survive in such case of the drought-induced decrease in food availability. Due to this natural selection and adaption the number of larger beaks in finches is increased over the real time.
Answer:
Since the origin of humans on this planet, they have been trying their best to make their lives easier on this planet. In doing so, human activities have some how heavily damaged the Earth. Many day to day activities of humans are dangerous for the Earth.
Some of the consequences of human activities on the Earth's fresh water are :
Extinction of many aquatic species:
The water consumed by humans comes from the fresh water oceans. As the population of humans is increasing enormously, the water from the oceans is being consumed at dangerous levels. This has caused many species of aquatic animals to become extinct or to be at a verge of extinction as they do not have a habitat to survive or reproduce.
Pollution:
Many heavy industries, house sewage, farmers dispose waste into the fresh water. Hence, killing aquatic animals and polluting the fresh water ecosystems.
Answer:
Explanation:
Only about five percent of starches are broken down in the mouth. (This is a good thing as more glucose in the mouth would lead to more tooth decay.) When carbohydrates reach the stomach no further chemical breakdown occurs because the amylase enzyme does not function in the acidic conditions of the stomach.
