What is needed for cellular respiration to occur in cells reactants?
Water,optimum temperature,oxygen,certain ions and enzymes are needed for cellular respiration.
Which two processes do both plants and animals perform?
Two examples are cellular respiration and protein synthesis.
Why are the enzymes used in cellular respiration virtually identical in all speccies?
The trick was learned (or stumbled across, to be more accurate) more than a billion years ago. We're all descendants of the cell that discovered that trick.
What are the 3 ways to measure cellular respiration?
Measure ATP production, carbon dioxide production, and oxygen use For one molecule of glucose, you will get the most ATP if using cellular respiration as opposed to just glycolysis More carbon dioxide will be produced if using cellular respiration
What is the affect of temperature on cellular respiration?
Usually, the higher the temperature the faster enzymes react and the quicker a reaction moves forward, however, if the temperature gets too hot, it can denature the proteins involved in the reaction.
Why are enzymes used in cellular respiration identical in all species?
The same genetic code produces those enzymes
What produces many enzymes used in cellular respiration?
Ribosomes produce enzymes .
Their matrix contains enzymes that function in cellular respiration?
mitochondria
Do enzymes change starch into glucose?
Yes they do. Enzymes change starch into glucose for cellular respiration.
Why are DNA repair enzymes important to an organism's survival?
Because enzymes catalyze all chemical reactions in an organism. For example without enzymes, or with bad enzymes, cellular respiration cannot occur because the Krebs cycle and many other systems in cellular respiration are facilitated by enzymes.
What is needed for cellular respiration to occur in cells reactants?
Water,optimum temperature,oxygen,certain ions and enzymes are needed for cellular respiration.
What do cells use to speed up cellular respiration?
Enzymes - biological catalysts.
Why are the enzymes used in respiration virtually identical in all species?
Both chloroplast and mitochondria are thought to be endosymbiotic and have their own DNA. The fact that these enzymes in all species is a theory of conserving useful gene. "If it isn't broke, don't fix it". These are also called essential genes. Essential genes code for fundamental cellular functions required for the viability of an organism. For this reason, essential genes are often highly conserved across organisms.
Which two processes do both plants and animals perform?
Two examples are cellular respiration and protein synthesis.
What is anothor name for a protein catalyst that speeds up chemical reaction during cellular respiration?
Enzymes
How do enzymes act as catalysts in cellular respiration?
Enzymes are catalysts, substances which help to change other substances without being permanetley changed themselves.
Are enzymes required in cellular respiration?
Yes. Many enzymes are necessary for many of the reactions that convert macromolecules into ATP or energy. Without these enzymes, cellular respiration may take days to break down on molecule of glucose.
