Chapter 7.10, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To describe: One possible hypothesis for the evolution of
Introduction: The energy metabolism refers to a process of producing energy (ATP) from nutrients, including anaerobic respiration, aerobic respiration, as well as amino acid and fatty acid metabolism. The metabolism comprises a series of interconnected pathways and it can function in the absence or presence of oxygen.

Students have asked these similar questions
Fossils of a microscopic organism are found in rocks determined to be from a past era of time.
Identify TWO types of evidence that would help answer the question of whether the organism was
able to undergo aerobic cellular respiration.
Place the five metabolic types in the probable order of their evolution: oxygenic photosynthesis, aerobic metabolisms, anaerobic chemolithoautotrophy, anaerobic chemorganoheterotrophy, anoxygenic photosynthesis. You are expected to justify your answers by identifying the origins of the energy, the carbon used and the redox couples (electron donors and acceptors). Describe the environmental conditions that probably led to the evolution of the next metabolism.
Which of the following statements about the evolution of life on Earth, from simple prokaryote-like
cells to multicellular eukaryotic organisms, is true?
By resulting in such diversity and complexity of life, it is an exception to the second law of thermodynamics.
It has occurred in accordance with the laws of thermodynamics and resulted in a substantial increase in the
total energy in the universe.
It has occurred in accordance with the laws of thermodynamics and resulted in a substantial decrease in the
entropy of the planet.

In other words, how will you gather evidence to support your claim/hypothesis? When identifying your design, be sure to address the following: What subject (beans, dogs, fish, plants, etc.) will you choose to test your claim/hypothesis?

(The number of measurements, etc.) What variables/factors will you have to control?arrow_forwardWhich of the following DOES NOT describe Cellular Respiration? * a. It provides cells with the energy they need to function. b. Cellular respiration is essential to both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells because this biochemical energy is produced to fuel many metabolic processes, such as biosynthesis, locomotion, and transportation of molecules across membranes c. Without the process of cellular respiration, there is no gaseous exchange and the cells, tissue and other organs die due to the lack of oxygen and by the accumulation of carbon dioxide within the cells and tissues. d. Cellular respiration is a type of passive cell transport. Molecules move from areas O of high concentration to areas of low concentration in order to decrease the concentration gradientarrow_forward
