Hello, We'll soon begin with the topic of metabolism. To do this, we'll first look at the evolution of the cell, in the sense of what makes a cell viable. Can anyone familiar with this imagine what exactly this means? I would guess that we might look at cell organelles, especially mitochondria, and perhaps cellular…
Hello, I've been studying chlorella and spirulina as blue-green algae (especially spirulina) for a while now and have discovered that spirulina, or cyanobacteria in general, don't have mitochondria. So how do they conduct cellular respiration?
Because the electrons are no longer transferred to the oxygen during deoxidation, the last step of cellular respiration, an electron jam occurs. What's wrong with an electron jam there? Also, I read from someone else that suffocation = no energy, so an electron jam is bad, but why
Hello, My homework is to compare cellular respiration to the combustion of a candle flame and to identify the similarities and differences. But I'm completely useless at biology and can't find any connection. Can someone help me?
This is our journal entry on the matter. I don't really understand how one would "read" these charts and what they mean. How do you arrive at 38 or 2 ADP? What's that all about? Thanks in advance, I'll write about short-time work after the holidays 🙂
Photosynthesis, which takes place in the chloroplasts, is directly related to cellular respiration. But humans don't have chloroplasts, so where do energy-rich substances like glucose, which form the basis for cellular respiration, come from? And what happens to the CO2 and H2O produced by cellular respiration that would otherwise be consumed in photosynthesis?
