Biology Questions

The three steps within the aerobic respiration process are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Photosynthesis builds glucose, and what was built in photosynthesis is broken down during aerobic respiration.

Hence, production of ATP from the breakdown of glucose is the main result of aerobic respiration.

Mitochondria is absent in Bacteria as well as in Blue Green Algae. They are seen in eukaryotic cells for respiration purpose.

Spongy, porous bone tissue is also called cancellous bone.

Cancellous bone is found in bones that aren't generally under significant stress like in the shoulder blades, ribs, parts of the skull, and at the ends of long bones.

3 Nucleotides make up a Codon. 

The nucleotide triplet that encodes an amino acid is called a codon.

Each group of three nucleotides encodes one amino acid.

The small intestine is the main area of the GI tract for absorption.

The small intestine has three separate sections. Theyare :

1. The duodenum

2. Jejunum and

3. Ileum.

Hence, the majority of nutrient absorption occurs in the duodenum and jejunum of small intestine.

The cell carries out the metabolic processes and it grows during interphase.

The cell cycle has three phases that must occur before mitosis, or cell division happens. These three phases are collectively known as interphase. They are G1, S, and G2.
