Answer:

The original organism is called the <u><em>parent (ancestor)</em></u> , and new organisms are called the <u><em>offspring</em></u>.

Explanation:

Reproduction is one of the characteristics of life. Every living organism tends to give rise to another organism. The organism which gives rise to another organism is termed as the parent. The organism which is born is known as the offspring.

There are two basic methods of reproduction. An organism can give rise to another organism by the method of asexual or sexual reproduction.

During asexual reproduction, identical copies of the parent organism are made. During sexual reproduction, two organisms reproduce to produce non-identical offsprings.

Which of the following situations or phrases most accurately describes the citric acid cycle?
Bond [772]

The correct answer is: B) "All roads lead to Rome"

Citric acid cycle also called tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and Krebs cycle is a central process in cellular respiration. Citric acid cycle that connects carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism so “all the roads” from the different metabolic pathways come to this cycle.

Acetyl-CoA which is produced through the oxidation of pyruvate (pyruvate is a product of glycolysis) enters the cycle which then produces reduced electron carriers NADH, FAD2 and energy molecule ATP. These electron carriers will then pass their electrons into the electron transport chain and, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation, will produce more ATP.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option C- A structure upon which proteins are assembled.

Explanation:

A ribosome is a complex molecule machine formed of proteins and rRNA molecules which acts as a site for the synthesis of the proteins.

These ribosomes are present in the cell as a free entity suspended in the cytosol or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Each ribosome is made up of a large and small component which translates the information coded in the mRNA in the form of codons to amino acids which join to form proteins.

Thus, option- C is the correct answer.
