Like plants, species of algae have chloroplast. Algae are single-celled organisms that have tiny bodies, some of which cannot be seen without the aid of a microscope. However, algal blooms, large collections of individual algae, can be seen from space. Macroscopic collections of algae can grow...
What organisms carry out cellular respiration? What types of organisms must maintain homeostasis? What is the non-living part of a plant cell called? Which system carries food and oxygen to cells? Human beings are multicellular organisms. Using examples from two different body systems, explain the...
What types of organisms undergo anaerobic respiration? Give examples. Distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Define cellular and anaerobic respiration. How is aerobic respiration different from anaerobic respiration? Why can't we survive with anaerobic metabolism when we don't have access...
What is the name of organisms that exclusively use cellular respiration to break down glucose to produce ATP? What are three examples of the cells that can do this? What is a common sugar used by the cell to make ATP? Which part of ...
Cellular Respiration:An important feature of all living organisms is the ability to metabolize energy to run cellular processes. Cellular respiration is a series of catabolic reactions that break down molecules from nutrients to produce energy stored as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell's energy...
Prokaryotes are organisms that have cells lacking internal membrane-bound structures. They do possess the four features common to all cells: Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA):The nucleic acid that serves as the genetic material of life on earth.
Prokaryotesare organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and other organelles. Prokaryotes are divided into two distinct groups: the bacteria and the archaea, which scientists believe have unique evolutionary lineages. Most prokaryotes are small, single-celled organisms that have a relatively simple structure...
Internal Respiration ••• Internal respiration is the distribution process in the body of an animal wherein oxygen is carried via the lungs and bloodstream throughout the body and broken down and converted into cellular energy. Cellular Respiration ...
and a sedentary lifestyle are associated with declining levels of nad+. a growing number of studies show that decreased nad+ levels are also associated with a whole host of disease states and in addition, across all organisms studied to date, from single-celled yeast to mice to humans, resea...
(RBC). It transports oxygen throughout the body. Carbon monoxide can bind hemoglobin over 200 times more tightly than oxygen, however. Hemoglobin bound to carbon monoxide is known as carboxyhemoglobin. When in this form, hemoglobin can no longer carry oxygen. The body can therefore become ...
