Answer the following question given this paragraph: Droughts also depend on what is normal for a region. A region that gets significantly less precipitation than normal for an extended period of time is in drought. The Southern United States is experiencing an ongoing and prolonged drought. Q: What term is used to describe a region getting significantly less precipitation than normal for an extended period of time? Choices: - dog days - doldrums - flood - drought A:
drought

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Viral diseases can be difficult to treat. They live inside the cells of their host, so it is hard to destroy them without killing host cells. Antibiotics also have no effect on viruses. Antiviral drugs are available, but only for a limited number of viruses. Q: What kind of diseases can be difficult to treat because they live inside the host's cells, making it hard to destroy them without killing host cells? Choices: - superfluous diseases - nucleus diseases - cancerous diseases - viral diseases A:
(Answer)
viral diseases
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Most living things use glucose for energy. The process in which glucose is made using light energy is photosynthesis. Water and carbon dioxide are needed for this process, and oxygen is produced as a byproduct. Photosynthetic organisms include plants, algae, and some bacteria. Q: What is the term for the process in which glucose is made using light energy? Choices: - glycolysis - hydration - compress - photosynthesis A:
Ans: photosynthesis

Answer the following question given this paragraph: 7.2 | Glycolysis By the end of this section, you will be able to: Describe the overall result in terms of molecules produced in the breakdown of glucose by glycolysis Compare the output of glycolysis in terms of ATP molecules and NADH molecules produced You have read that nearly all of the energy used by living cells comes to them in the bonds of the sugar, glucose. Glycolysis is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism. Nearly all living organisms carry out glycolysis as part of their metabolism. The process does not use oxygen and is therefore anaerobic. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Glucose enters heterotrophic cells in two ways. One method is through secondary active transport in which the transport takes place against the glucose concentration gradient. The other mechanism uses a group of integral proteins called GLUT proteins, also known as glucose transporter proteins. These transporters assist in the facilitated diffusion of glucose. Glycolysis begins with the six carbon ring-shaped structure of a single glucose molecule and ends with two molecules of a three-carbon sugar called pyruvate. Glycolysis consists of two distinct phases. The first part of the glycolysis pathway traps the glucose molecule in the cell and uses energy to modify it so that the six-carbon sugar molecule can be split evenly into the two three-carbon molecules. The second part of glycolysis extracts energy from the molecules and stores it in the form of ATP and NADH, the reduced form of NAD. Q: What is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism? Choices: - mutation - mitosis - photosynthesis - glycolysis A:
(A).
glycolysis
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: How does the food you eat provide energy? When you need a quick boost of energy, you might reach for an apple or a candy bar. But cells do not "eat" apples or candy bars; these foods need to be broken down so that cells can use them. Through the process of cellular respiration , the energy in food is changed into energy that can be used by the body's cells. Initially, the sugars in the food you eat are digested into the simple sugar glucose , a monosaccharide . Recall that glucose is the sugar produced by the plant during photosynthesis. The glucose, or the polysaccharide made from many glucose molecules, such as starch , is then passed to the organism that eats the plant. This organism could be you, or it could be the organism that you eat. Either way, it is the glucose molecules that holds the energy. Q: Which molecules in the body holds energy? Choices: - mitochondria molecules - water molecules - lipid molecules - glucose molecules A:

Ans:glucose molecules
