How does the human heart interact with gravity
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Many parts of the cardiovascular system (including the heart) are influenced by gravity. On Earth, for example, the veins in our legs work against gravity to get blood back to the heart. Without gravity, however, the heart and blood vessels change – and the longer the flight, the more severe the changes.

There is a net gain of how many ATP molecules for each molecule of glucose processed to pyruvate via glycolysis:
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

Glycolysis or EMP pathway is first stage of cellular respiration that occur in the cytoplasm of every living cell. It is a common process of both anaerobic and aerobic respiration. During glycolysis glucose, a 6 carbon sugar is converted into two molecules of pyruvate, a three carbon sugar. During this conversion 4 ATP molecules are produced. Two oxidise glucose to pyruvate, 2 ATP molecules are also required or used up. Thus, a net gain of 2 ATP molecules at the completion of glycolysis.

Which of the following statements is TRUE about competition between organisms with the same needs when resources are limited?
netineya [11]

Answer:

animals are the only organisms that compete for resources

Explanation:

this is due to the fact that plants take up resources passively, a method which doesn't require them to waste any energy, however in the case of resources, is not very effective. suppose there was a bit of water scarcity in your area, and a plant and you both need water for survival. obviously, the plant cant possibly do anything to receive these resources, as it is just a plant. its survival is based merely on the chance that you pour water into it. this is not the case for animals, which, like us, actively collect and gather resources, and use them to our advantage.  therefore, animals are the only animals that compete for resources
