When comparing the yield of ATP from the different stages of cellular respiration, which produces the greatest number of ATP
REY [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - electron transport system.

Explanation:

There are 3 main stages of cellular respiration (aerobic) that are Glycolysis, the Kreb's Cycle and the ETS or Electron Transport Chain. The formation of energy in ATPare as follows:

Glycolysis - glucose > 2 Pyretic Acid Molecules =>2 ATP and Hydrogen

The Krebs Cycle - Citric Acid (a derivative of Pyruvic Acid) > 2 ATP in 4 cycles and  Hydrogen, carbon dioxide and water.

The Electron Transport Chain > electron carrying Hydrogens > releases the energy as 4 ATP and water

Thus, the correct answer is - The Electron Transport Chain is the stage that produces most of the ATP during cellular respiration.

​which organ is found in the left, upper quadrant of the abdomen and secretes digestive enzymes, insulin, and glucagon
irina [24]
This organ is the pancreas. It is a very small endocrine gland measuring 6 inches that is located on the left abdomen near the duodenum of the small intestine and the spleen. The pancreas is a very important organ that secretes digestive enzymes like:

pancreatic amylase - breaks down polysaccarides and glycogen into simple sugars
trypsin- breaks down proteins into amino acids
pancreatic lipase - breaks down triglycerides to fatty acids and monoglycerides
ribonuclease - digests nucleic acids

It also secretes insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.

Why are there fewer organisms in each level as you go up the energy pyramid ​
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation: The energy pyramid describes how energy gets distributed through an ecosystem. The more there is of an organism on the energy pyramid, the more it gives overall to the ecosystem. The less there is of an organism, the less it gives to the ecosystem. Take the Floridian Everglades as an example. There is an abundance of sawgrass, and that makes up the foundation of the system, along with mangroves and such. But there are less of predators in the ecosystem because they only feed of of their prey like small mammals or fish. They never start the food chain, they end it.
