Explain the relationship among homeostasis, defective mitochondria, and the symptoms caused by LHON.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  The Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is caused by defective genes contained in mitochondrial DNA.

Explanation:

LHON is causes the vision loss. This occurs due to mutation in the mitochondrial DNA. The symptoms are not associated vision loss thus it is difficult to predict that which member of family was the carrier of the disease. Some people do not get completely blind. A young male is expected to develop a risk of 50% development of this disease.

At the complete end of cellular repiration, how many molecules of ATP are produced? A. 15 B. 34 C. 38 D. 26

C.38

Answers

Answer:

C.38

Explanation:

During aerobic cellular respiration, one molecule of glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce approximately 38 molecules of ATP. Light energy is converted into chemical energy in the process of photostnthesis- the resulting carbohydrate moecule incorporates linorganic carbon, and water to produce oxygen and glucose.

ATP or adenosine trohosphate is a high energy molecule, used as a type of energy currency in cells. In respiration, glucose is converted to pyruvate- this molecule's derivatives are then oxidized and reduced to harvest energy as ATP.

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP

glucose+ oxygen →  carbon dioxide+ water+ energy

Answers

Answer:

Hydrolysis

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a reaction that needs water to breakdown macromolecules into simpler units.

Macromolecules are giant polymers made up of several repeating monomeric units.

These units are too complex for the body to digest and derive nutritional benefits from them. During hydrolysis, the complex is broken down into monomers. The monomeric units are absorbable and useful for the body.

In photosynthesis, the energy from the sun eventually gets converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and sugar that the plant can use directly to fuel its biological processes. Which of the following correctly describes how plants use glucose after it is produced?

Answers:
Glucose enters the mitochondria for production of ATP.

Solar energy breaks apart glucose forming pyruvate.

The energy in glucose is never used by the plant.

Glucose is broken down into its components ATP and H ions.

Answers

Answer:

Glucose enters the mitochondria for production of ATP.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process through which solar energy is used to make glucose.

To generate chemical energy for cellular processes, glucose is broken down through cellular respiration in the mitochondria. This generates large amounts of ATP, which acts a source of energy to power reactions in the cell.

Excess glucose is stored as starch in plant cells

How does cellular respiration happen?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello there! Cellular respiration is the process in which the body breaks down sugar, glucose, within the body. When this glucose is broken down it will be transformed into ATP, Adenosine triphosphate, the energy used within almost all bodily processes. Although the means by which the body breaks down this sugar is rather complex it would be easiest to understand the chemical reactions that make up the process.

one of the many chemical reactions in cellular respiration is as follows:

C6H12O6+6O2⟶6CO2+6H2O+Energy

In the reaction above we see a sugar, C6H12O6, reacting with carbon dioxide. When these two products completely react they will produce water, H2O, carbon dioxide, CO2, and ATP, labeled as energy.

A certain wastewater treatment plant uses aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria and archaebacteria during secondary treatment of sewage. Unfortunately, during a bad bluzard the sludge digester froze, killing the microbes inside. What is likely to result? a) Floc levels will diminish b) Solid material will not be effectively fitered out c) Methane production will go down d) Floc will not be effectivelyftered out

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

Anaerobic bacteria used in sewage treatment helps to reduce the volume/amount of sludge in the sewage thereby producing methane gas from it. Some companies produce there own (not for sale) methane gas (as an alternate source of energy) through this process. Thus, a decrease in the amount of this bacteria (perhaps through death as described in the question) will lead to a decreased production of methane gas.

ATP synthesis could be energized by a proton gradient.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option E, that is, synthesis of ATP could be mediated by a proton gradient.

Explanation:

Andre Jagendorf inserted chloroplasts for many hours within a buffer of pH 4 and then instantaneously mixed that with the buffer of pH 8. He came to known that in the stroma, a change in pH was witnessed, that is, it moved to 8 while in the thylakoid space there was no change, that is, the pH remained at 4. He then isolated the thylakoid and put it in the dark, he noticed that it produced ATP. This proves the hypothesis of Peter Mitchell that the production of ATP is mediated by proton-motive force.
