input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: CRITICAL THINKING QUESTIONS 18. Why is it beneficial for cells to use ATP rather than energy directly from the bonds of carbohydrates? What are the greatest drawbacks to harnessing energy directly from the bonds of several different compounds? 19. Nearly all organisms on earth carry out some form of glycolysis. How does that fact support or not support the assertion that glycolysis is one of the oldest metabolic pathways? 20. Red blood cells do not perform aerobic respiration, but they do perform glycolysis. Why do all cells need an energy source, and what would happen if glycolysis were blocked in a red blood cell? 21. What is the primary difference between a circular pathway and a linear pathway?. Q: Red blood cells do not perform aerobic respiration, but they do perform what process that is nearly universal to organisms? A:
OPTIONS:
- digestion
- reproduction
- mitosis
- glycolysis
output: glycolysis

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Water and many other substances cannot simply diffuse across a membrane. Hydrophilic molecules, charged ions, and relatively large molecules such as glucose all need help with diffusion. The help comes from special proteins in the membrane known as transport proteins . Diffusion with the help of transport proteins is called facilitated diffusion . There are several types of transport proteins, including channel proteins and carrier proteins. Both are shown in Figure below . Q: The help with diffusion comes from special proteins in the membrane known as what? A:
Answer: transport proteins

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Unsaturated hydrocarbons have at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms, so the carbon atoms are not bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible. In other words, they are unsaturated with hydrogen atoms. Q: When carbon atoms are not bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible, what kind of hydrocarbon results? A:

OPTIONS:
- unstable
- aqueous
- saturated
- unsaturated

Answer:
unsaturated
