Answer:

Approximately it will consume 55% of the total time in the interphase i.e. 800 minutes.

Explanation:

The time required in different phases are as follows:

It takes 800 minutes for interphase

It takes 400 minutes for prophase

It takes 120 minutes for metaphase

It takes 80 minutes for anaphase

It takes 40 minutes for telophase

Total -- 24 hours

From this it can be concluded that around 55% of the time spent in the interphase, whereas only 28% in the prophase, 8% time for metaphase, 6% Anaphase and 3% Telophase. This is all happens in the onion cell but in case of the human cell, prophase it takes about 15 min, in prometaphase it takes 15 mins, metaphase takes in about 20 min, Anaphase takes minimum of 3 min and telophase is about and cytokineses are about less then 10 mins.

The ATP that is generated in glycolysis is produced by substrate-level phosphorylation, a very different mechanism than the one
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The correct statements are a, b and d. The incorrect statements are c and e.

Explanation:

Substrate level phosphorylation signifies the generation of ATP from ADP and a phosphorylated intermediate. On the other hand, in oxidative phosphorylation, the formation of ATP takes place from ADP and Pi, that is, an inorganic phosphate.  

In substrate-level phosphorylation an enzyme is needed for the reaction to take place. In the process, a dissociation of bond takes place between an organic molecule and a phosphate prior to the formation of ATP. In this, one of the substrates is a molecule obtained from the dissociation of glucose.  

In substrate-level phosphorylation, the enzyme taking part in the synthesis of ATP is not required to get attached to the membrane to generate ATP. The phosphate group, which is added to ADP to produce ATP does not come from free inorganic phosphate ions.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The frequency would be stable.

Explanation:

Based on the most common symptoms of cystic fibrosis, the disease only appears on adults and elderly. This feature means that the frequency of the disease would not drop or raise because they would still reproduce and pass the allele from generation to the next, maintaining the frequency stable.

Korvikt [17]

This is an example of dissolution of carbonates.

When carbon combines with minerals, it dissolves carbon. This transforms minerals that contain calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. When rainwater attacks formations of limestone the constituent minerals dissolve and wash away with mildly acidic rainwater.
