What molecules are required for the Calvin cycle? (3 answers)
Answer:After the energy from the sun is converted and packaged into ATP and NADPH, the cell has the fuel needed to build food in the form of carbohydrate molecules. The carbohydrate molecules made will have a backbone of carbon atoms. Where does the carbon come from? The carbon atoms used to build carbohydrate molecules comes from carbon dioxide, the gas that animals exhale with each breath. The Calvin cycle is the term used for the reactions of photosynthesis that use the energy stored by the light-dependent reactions to form glucose and other carbohydrate molecules.
Explanation:The Interworkings of the Calvin Cycle
In plants, carbon dioxide (CO2) enters the chloroplast through the stomata and diffuses into the stroma of the chloroplast—the site of the Calvin cycle reactions where sugar is synthesized. The reactions are named after the scientist who discovered them, and reference the fact that the reactions function as a cycle. Others call it the Calvin-Benson cycle to include the name of another scientist involved in its discovery (Figure 5.14).
This illustration shows that ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions are used in the Calvin cycle to make sugar.
Answer:
CO2, ATP, and NADPH

Based on this diagram label the positive and negative sides of the DNA fingerprint with a + and – sign.
We can say that the top of the gel, where the DNA samples were applied, is the negative side, while the bottom of the gel is the positive side.
We can arrive at this answer because:
DNA is a negatively charged molecule.For this reason, when DNA is applied in an electrophoresis vat, it must be placed in the negatively charged portion.This is because the electrophoresis vat will allow an electrical discharge to pass through the vat and drag the DNA from the negative side to the positive side.This movement allows the DNA to present a series of fragments of different sizes that will be observed in a fingerprint, such as the one presented in the question above.
In the figure below you can more accurately see the positive and negative sides.

Some fossil snakes have remnants of hip bones and legs even though these animals had no legs. These remnant structures are best described as: vestigial structures.
Vestigial structures are organic structures that do not appear to fulfill any important biological function in the organism that possesses them.
These structures are preserved as an inheritance of the evolutionary process, because at some point in the history of evolution an ancestor of the current species had that structure.These types of structures, which can be bones, organs, structures in the skin or any other part of the body, no longer offer any meaningful function for the body.The presence of vestigial structures in animals is considered proof that evolution and natural selection exists.
Therefore, we can conclude that some fossil snakes have remnants of hip bones and legs even though these animals had no legs. These remnant structures are best described as vestigial structures.

The primary purpose of the ______ circuit is for the blood to release carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen.
Answer:
Explanation:
The primary purpose of the systemic circuit is for blood to release carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen
The primary purpose of the pulmonary circuit is for the blood to release carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen.
What is pulmonary system?It consists of your blood vessels, lungs, and airways. The respiratory system also includes the muscles that propel your lungs.
Together, these components help the body circulate oxygen and eliminate waste gases like carbon dioxide.
The respiratory system makes it possible for the body to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide.
The nose and mouth are the beginning of the respiratory system, which continues through the airways and lungs.
The pulmonary circulation serves a variety of crucial purposes. Its main job is to exchange gases across the alveolar membrane.
This ultimately results in oxygenated blood being delivered to the rest of the body and carbon dioxide being removed from the bloodstream.
Thus, the pulmonary circuit's main function is to allow the blood to absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide.

Explanation:
In your own words, explain how a single molecule of glucose is converted into ~30 or more molecules of ATP in cellular respiration
Answer: Throughout the stages of cellular respiration
Explanation:
Fair warning I'm only a college freshman so you may be able to find more detailed answers than what I'm about to give you.
During cellular respiration there are a number of processes that must be taken into account when dealing with a glucose molecule.
Glycolysis: The molecule of glucose is a 6-carbon molecule, in this process that takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell, it is split into two 3-carbon molecules, these are pyruvates, during this, 2 ATP is made as a byproduct(along with 2 NADH molecules but I'll just focus on the ATP moving forward).
Transformation of pyruvate: For eukaryotic cells, the pyruvate molecules from Glycolysis are transferred into the mitochondria, which of course are sites for cellular respiration. With Oxygen available, aerobic respiration would continue but if not, fermentation would take place which would drastically reduce total ATP reduction throughout one cycle. The pyruvates are transformed into a 2-carbon acetyl group which is then oxidized and now compatible for Coenzyme A to pick up, which results in the compound Acetyl Coenzyme A. This process ends up producing 1 NADH molecule from the reduction of NAD+ due to the 2 carbon molecule being oxidized.
Citric Acid Cycle: This stage begins as soon as Acetyl CoA combines with a 4-carbon molecule called Oxaloacetate which ends up forming citric acid, that has 6-carbon atoms. Long story short the citric acid goes through a great number of reactions that produces a total of 2 ATP molecules.
Oxidative Phosphorylation: This stage of aerobic respiration consists of the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis process. The energy of NADH and FADH2 molecules that were produced in the Citric Acid Cycle is what's used to create the final majority of ATP molecules within this whole process. 1. Throughout the electron transport chain, excited electrons move along its network in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. As it moves, molecules it passes by uses the electrons energy to pump Hydrogen ions/protons from the inner membrane towards the intermembrane space. This transfer of ions creates an electrochemical gradient which is necessary for the synthesis of ATP in the following process, Chemiosmosis. The Electron Transport Chain produces about 2-3 ATP. 2. In Chemiosmosis, the newly formed electrochemical gradient causes the gathered Hydrogen ions to flow from the intermembrane space into the matrix, therefore lowering the its concentration(search up a image of this if you need to). This flow is thanks to and mediated by ATP synthase. Finally ATP synthase accepts 3-4 Hydrogen ions so an inorganic phosphate group can react with an ADP (Adenosine diphosphate) compound to produce one ATP molecule. In total, 24-28 molecules of ATP is formed.
This is how a single molecule of glucose can produce more than 30 molecules of ATP in aerobic cellular respiration. Fermentation on the other hand, would most likely produce half of which aerobic respiration would produce.

Which hormone is responsible for the development of the male secondary sex characteristics? estrogen progestin progesterone testosterone.
Answer:
It is Testosterone
Explanation:
The hormone responsible for the development of the male secondary sex characteristics is testosterone. Hence option D is correct.
What is testosterone?Testosterone is a hormone primarily produced in the testes of males and to a lesser extent in the ovaries of females and the adrenal glands of both sexes. It is an androgen, or a hormone that promotes the development of male characteristics.
Testosterone plays a crucial role in the development of male reproductive tissues, such as the testes and prostate, as well as in the growth of muscle mass and bone density.
It is also responsible for the development of secondary sex characteristics in males, such as facial hair growth, a deepening of the voice, and the growth of Adam's apple. Testosterone also regulates sex drive (libido) and sperm production.
In females, testosterone is produced in smaller amounts and helps regulate the menstrual cycle and promote bone density.
An imbalance of testosterone levels in either males or females can lead to various health issues, including infertility, osteoporosis, and disorders of sexual development.
Hence option D testosterone is correct.
