Why might (mostly) boneless creatures, like jellyfish, sea slugs, squid, and octopuses, fare especially well underwater? What is

it about the physics of being underwater that would allow relatively large, sometimes highly mobile creatures to flourish that isn’t true for boneless land creatures?

Answer:

The species that develop in aquatic environments, need to be able to have an adequate locomotion and according to the hydrostatic pressure in the water, which this pressure has the opposite direction to gravity in terrestrial life.

Explanation:

Vertebrates that have a skeleton are accustomed to gravitational forces, and this bone structure is what allows adequate locomotion to perform movements as a function of the force of earth's gravity, in water the force of gravity has no effect, since that the hydrostatic force predominates, which the direction is opposite to the gravitational forces.

Amorphous bodies, with few solid structures, not bony, make them better adapt to movements in water masses that are promoted by hydrostatic forces.

Answer:

A. NADH and FADH2 both donate electrons at the same location.

Explanation:

In the respiratory chain, four large protein complexes inserted into the mitochondrial inner membrane transport NADH and FADH₂ electrons (formed in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle) to oxygen gas, reducing them to NAD⁺ and FAD, respectively.

These electrons have great affinity for oxygen gas and, when combined with it, reduce it to water molecules at the end of the reaction.

Oxygen gas effectively participates in cellular respiration at this stage, so its absence would imply interruption of the process.

NADH and FADH₂ electrons, when attracted to oxygen, travel a path through protein complexes, releasing energy in this process.

The energy released by the NADH and FADH₂ electrons in the respiratory chain in theory yields <u>34</u> <u>ATP</u>, however, under normal conditions an average of 26 ATP molecules is formed.

If we consider that these 26 molecules are added to the two ATP formed in glycolysis and two ATP formed in the Krebs cycle, it can be said that cellular respiration reaches a maximum yield of 30 ATP per glucose molecule, although theoretically this number was 38 ATP per glucose molecule.

Plants don’t move freely. How do the plant structures shown in the three images help to ensure successful reproduction? Explain
RSB [31]

The bee who is enthralled by the pollen gets some of it stuck to itself and travels with the plants offspring which ensures the plants reproduction. The wind blows the seeds of the dandelion to far off places to ensure the reproduction of the dandelion. The squirrel who is storing acorns for the winter will eat some of them, but other acorns are forgotten which ensures the reproduction of the acorn tree's reproduction.
