Answer:

-During citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, radioactive carbon will be first appear in citric acid

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, glucose is first converted into pyruvate molecules by the process of glycolysis. These pyruvate molecules go for oxidative decarboxylation, during which acetyl co-enzyme A (acetyl CoA) is formed along with removal of carbon dioxide.

The acetyl co-enzyme enters to the next step in cellular respiration or citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle. The first step of citric acid cycle is formation of citric acid by joining of acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate.

As citric acid is first molecule formed during citric acid cycle, radioactive carbon would be first appear in citric acid.

Which statement gives an advantage of multicellular organisms?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Bacteria can reproduce quickly which is why it is sometimes hard to get rid of a cold.

Both types of cells carry out necessary functions to survive.

Size does not define a cell.

Multi-cellular organism have complex cell structure in which each cell has the ability to tend to it's necessary functions.

Hope this helps :)

Cacao beans arrive in a factory from the areas where they grew. At the factory, the best beans are sorted and put into bags. Aft
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

See the answer below.

Explanation:

The arrival of cacao beans in the factory can be likened to the transcription of mRNA using a DNA template.

Sorting of the best beans at the factory can be likened to splicing process. During splicing, the introns are removed from the newly synthesized mRNA and the exons are joined together. The introns represent the non-coding portion of the mRNA while the exons represent the coding sequence.

The checking of bags by quality control can be likened to the final proofreading of the mRNA after splicing before being transported to the cytoplasm where they are used to synthesize proteins.

The large truck that transports the cacao beans represent the transport proteins that transport the mRNA to the cytoplasm while the chocolate-producing company represents the ribosome which is the site of protein synthesis.
