Respiration is how animal cells get their energy to preform their necessary functions. Plant cells don't use respiration, because they use photosynthesis. Photosynthesis turns light into energy.
Tid-bit of info:
Cellular Respiration Formula:
Sugar + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water <span>+ ATP </span>
C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ = CO₂ + H₂O <span>+ ATP </span>
Photosynthesis Formula:
Sunlight + Water + Carbon Dioxide = Oxygen + Sugar
Sunlight + H₂O + CO₂ = O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆
Different enzymes have specific active sites which can only catalyze one <span>substrate. Enzyme-substrate complexes are produced only when the substrate fits into the active site :)</span>
The fossil record shows a sequence from simple bacteria to more complicated organisms through time, it is very reliable because it is physical evidence and by studying fossils, scientists can learn how much (or how little) organisms have changed as life developed on Earth.
The allele that is masked is recessive. The one which masks it is dominant.
