Cellular fermentation takes place:
aerobically |
|
anaerobically |
|
in plant cells |
|
in the presence of oxygen |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.
In cell biology, the primary difference between anaerobic and aerobic respiration is that aerobic respiration requires:
mitochondria |
|
water |
|
oxygen |
|
sugar |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
The first step in the water cycle is:
precipitation |
|
infiltration |
|
evaporation |
|
reclamation |
The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.
The four planets closest to the Sun are called terrestrial. What does terrestrial mean?
the planets are Earth-like |
|
the planets have water |
|
the planets have magnetic fields |
|
the planets have moons |
The four planets closest to the Sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are called terrestrial (Earth-like) planets because, like the Earth, they're solid with inner metal cores covered by rocky surfaces.
Which of these is not a function of bone in the human skeletal system?
produce blood cells |
|
protect bodily organs |
|
store minerals |
|
store vitamins |
Hard bones provide primary support for the endoskeleton while more flexible cartilage is found at the end of all bones, at the joints, and in the nose and ears. In addition to providing support and protecting bodily organs, bones also produce blood cells and store minerals like calcium.
