Answer:

facilitated diffusion

Explanation:

Since glucose is a large molecule, its diffusion across a membrane is difficult. Hence, it diffuses across membranes through facilitated diffusion, down the concentration gradient. The carrier protein at the membrane binds to the glucose and alters its shape such that it can easily to be transported.

Answer:

Instead, the energy is provide by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from one side of the membrane to the other.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Fermentation

Explanation:

Fermentation is the process whereby carbohydrates are converted to acohol or acid by the activities of some enzymes. During the process of fermentation, carbon dioxide is produced and it is found as tiny pockets of air inside the bread dough. This make it to rise. The alcohol produced evaporates later during the bread making process.

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The coastal upwelling and changes in wind and water circulation patterns is the main natural cause of dead zones.

Fertilizers cause hypoxia due to the over growth of algae on the surface of water bodies.

Explanation:

Coastal upwelling is the cause of dead zones in which water that is present in depth comes to the surface of ocean due to the movement of water because of wind. Fertilizers cause hypoxia due to the over growth of algae on the surface of water bodies. The fertilizers increases the algal growth by providing nutrients necessary for its growth. This over growth decreases oxygen concentration in water and affect marine organisms.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The options to this question is incomplete, the correct options are:

A) the citric acid cycle.

B) oxidative phosphorylation.

C) glycolysis.

D) the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation

The answer is D

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is an important metabolic process carried out by the cells of living organisms including human cells. Aerobic cellular respiration involves three main stages viz: Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, and Oxidative phosphorylation. These three processes occur to bring about the breakdown of glucose to synthesize ATP.

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm while Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation both occurs in the matrix and intracellular membrane of the Mitochondrion respectively. Hence, a drug that causes holes in both mitochondrial membranes will affect both Kreb's cycle and Oxidative phosphorylation.
