which statement correctly compares and contrast the three stages of cellluar respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen
Lapatulllka [165]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Which statement correctly compares and contrasts the three stages of cellular respiration that occur in the presence of oxygen? Each stage occurs in the mitochondria, but only the final stage produces ATP. Each stage produces ATP, but only the third stage occurs in the mitochondria. Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm. Each stage occurs in the cytoplasm, but only the final stage produces ATP.

<h2><u>Answer</u>:</h2>

Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Cellular respiration is the process by which the glucose or any respiratory substrate is burned down inside a cell producing ATP or energy. This process of cellular respiration is seen in each and every living cell. The glucose is burned in the cytoplasm of the cell producing the pyruvate. This pyruvate is decarboxylated into Acetyl CoA and transferred inside the mitochondria. So the glycolysis or the 1st step of cellular respiration occurs in cytoplasm and rest inside the mitochondria.

ATP is produced from each astep of cellular respiration. So the correct option is option C.

Imagine that a doctor is culturing two types of cells: one from a malignant melanoma and one from a normal skin sample. How woul
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Malignant melanoma cells would have active telomerases that constantly replenish and lengthen telomeres.

Explanation:

Telomerase can be described as enzymes which add the repetitive sequences called telomeres at the end of a chromosome. Telomeres can be described as repetitive sequences at the end of the chromosome which are involved in protecting the chromosome from any damage.

In a normal skin cell, the telomeres will shorten with time. But in a malignant skin cell, the telomerase will add the repetitive sequence again and again. The telomers will not be able to shorten.

Explain two ways in which the lens is structurally suited to perfrom its function
horsena [70]
The function of the lens is that it allows light rays to focus into the retina. They are composed of fluids that contains lots of nutrients for the lens to gain from it and cleanses dirt if it comes in contact the eye. Overtime, this lens, will slowly degrade as its fluid will start to lose.
