Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "the citric acid cycle".
Explanation:
The citric acid cycle is one of the most important pathways of the cellular metabolism because of its role in energy production and biosynthesis. The citric acid cycle is where most of the CO2 from catabolism is released. This happens by the release of two molecules of CO2 per turn in the cycle, using the two atoms of carbon from acetyl CoA.
Answer:
Mesopelagic zone
Explanation:
The Mesopelagic zone, also referred to as the Twilight zone, is the second oceanic zone from the top, lying just bellow the Epipelagic zone. It is occupying the waters at depths between 200 meters and 1,000 meters. The sunlight is only managing to reach the top few meters of this zone, while the rest is not receiving any sunlight, thus this zone is not supporting the plant species because they need sunlight for the process of photosynthesis. There are lot of animal species that live in this zone though, and they are ll very well adapted for it, often having hard shells or heavily scaled bodies, larger lungs and heart, and very well developed gills. Some of the animals that live in here are the crabs and the clams. They have developed all the needed characteristics to live in this zone. Because they are prey to lot of larger animals, both the crabs and the clams have started to use the soft sediments at the bottom as cover, digging themselves below it, and mostly managing to evade trouble and end up as food for the other species.
The exchange takes place in the millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that envelope them.
Answer: 0.69 m/ mile.
Explanation:
The altitude gradient between two cities X and Y =
Given: Two cities are separated by 200 miles.
City X has an altitude of 122 meters.
City Y has an altitude of 260 meters.
The altitude gradient between two cities X and Y =
Hence, the altitude gradient between the two cites = 0.69 m/ mile.
