The breaking down of
sugars is called glycolysis. The prefix glyco- means sugar, and the suffix
-lysis means breaking down. It's part of a three-step process in respiration,
the other two is The Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Phosphorylation. In the
process of glycolysis, 2 ATP and 2 NADH are produced.
The answer is protein
Osmosis happens when the osmotic pressure of two container separated by semipermeable membrane is different. The osmotic pressure could be exert by polar solute because they will attract water molecule. Protein, glucose, and sodium chloride is the common molecule that could cause osmosis. But protein is the main substance that keep the osmotic pressure of the blood in the body.
The answer is; concentration of oxygen and/or total atmospheric pressure is lower at high altitudes
This means that at high altitude, due to the low pressure, every breath has a lower oxygen content than at a lower altitude. This, therefore, necessitates the body to increase the erythrocyte numbers in the blood to maximize the uptake of oxygen from the thinner air.
