Why is comparing cellular respiration to a burning fire a poor analogy

Biology
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A fire will burn all of its potential energy while cellular respiratory will store it as ATP

also

burning a fire releases all of the energy in the fuel as heat and light.

Hope this Helps

That occur(s) when atoms share
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

A polar bond  that occur(s) when atoms share electrons unequally.

A Nonpolar Covalent Bond occur(s) when atoms share electrons equally.

<h3>What is a Nonpolar Covalent Bond?</h3>

This is known to be a bond that is said to have  created if atoms are said to share their electrons in an equal way.

Note that this is one that often  occurs if two atoms are said to be the same or are similar or have the similar electron affinity.

Note also that the closer the values of a given electron affinity, the stronger the attraction.

Therefore, A polar bond  that occur(s) when atoms share electrons unequally.

A Nonpolar Covalent Bond occur(s) when atoms share electrons equ

You are growing yeast cells in a culture. After a few days of consistent growth, you notice that cell growth has slowed consider
BigorU [14]

The correct answer is C) There is not enough oxygen in the culture medium. This is because of alcoholic fermentation, and anaerobic process where the yeast transform sugar (glucose) in ethylic alcohol (ethanol) and carbon dioxide. Glucose is decomposed into pyruvic acid which then after turns into CO2 and ethanol. The bubbles described, are produced by the carbon dioxide.

The yeast, as well as some bacteria, use the glucose molecule through "glycolysis"  to obtain a 3-carbon molecule called pyruvates. Glycolysis consists of 10 coupled reactions, in the end, from one glucose (6 carbons) the yeast will obtain two pyruvates (3 carbons each).

Pyruvate can follow three main routes to obtain ATP, end up as lactate, as carbon dioxide (CO2) and water or as ethanol (alcohol) and CO2. Regarding yeast, it can only be used to obtain Ethanol plus CO2 or to obtain CO2 plus water.

The path that follows from here depends on the reaction medium. The cell gets much more energy (38 molecules of ATP) by converting pyruvate into water + CO2 than by turning it into ethanol + CO2 (2 molecules of ATP). Then, whenever possible, the yeast will follow the CO2 + water path. To support this route the cell needs oxygen.  In this case, the cell obtains its energy by breathing when there is no oxygen available, the yeast has a way that allows it to gain much less energy but allows it to survive, the alcoholic fermentation, previously mentioned.

Therefore, A, B, and D answers are wrong for the reasons mentioned above.

What effect do structural differences have betweeen prokaryots and eukaryots
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Prokaryotes are therefore able to lack membrane-bound organelles and have less complex internal structure. Eukaryotes are generally larger than prokaryotes, and have a less favorable surface-area to Page 5 volume ratio. This makes transport more complicated, requiring them to contain a larger variety of organelles.

The major structural advantage of eukaryotes over prokaryotes is the ability to form advanced, multicellular organisms. While eukaryotes can survive as both single-cell and multicellular organisms, prokaryotes don't have the ability to form complex structures or organisms.

What differences in structures are there between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell?

Comparing prokaryotes and eukaryotes

The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store their genetic information.

Which type of fat has no known health benefits, and was invented by humans to prolong the shelf-life of pre-packaged foods? A. S
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

D. Trans Fat

Explanation:

Trans fat is made through the hydrogenation of unsaturated fats. The use of trans fat extends shelf-life of foods and is said to boost flavor. However, the body is not able to process these fats and can have a detrimental effect on the body. Trans fat is known to increase cholesterol in the body so you will be more at risk for other diseases like diseases of the heart, diabetes, and even stroke.
