Question 16:

The answer is a) does not produce as much ATP and comes into action as an energy backup for aerobic organisms.
To arrive at this answer, you need to understand the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen and is more efficient, producing a larger amount of ATP (energy) for the cell. Anaerobic respiration, on the other hand, occurs in the absence of oxygen and is less efficient, producing a smaller amount of ATP. Anaerobic respiration typically comes into action when oxygen is limited, acting as an emergency backup for aerobic organisms.

Question 17:
The answer is b) More ATP molecules are gained in aerobic respiration than in anaerobic respiration.
To answer this question, you need to recall that aerobic respiration is more efficient than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration produces a larger amount of ATP (energy) compared to anaerobic respiration, making it a more efficient process overall.

Question 18:
The answer is b) More ATP molecules are gained in aerobic respiration than in anaerobic respiration.
This is the same question as question 17 and has the same answer. Aerobic respiration is more efficient and produces more ATP compared to anaerobic respiration.

Question 19:
The answer is a) Cellular respiration uses oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, while photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and releases oxygen.
To answer this question, you need to understand the roles of gases in cellular respiration and photosynthesis. During cellular respiration, cells use oxygen and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. On the other hand, during photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide and release oxygen as a byproduct. This exchange of gases is essential for both processes to occur.

Question 20:
The answer is a) Can the plant perform photosynthesis faster than a plant that is not sealed? and e) Can the plant perform respiration faster than a plant that is not sealed?
To determine the correct answer, you need to analyze the purpose of Lucy's investigation. By sealing the plant in a plastic bag, Lucy wants to observe if the plant can perform photosynthesis and respiration without a supply of gases from the outside. Therefore, her investigation is designed to answer the questions of whether the plant can perform photosynthesis and respiration without a large supply of carbon dioxide and oxygen, respectively.

Question 21:
The answer is b) The breakdown of glucose.
Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose molecules to produce ATP (energy). The breakdown of glucose is an important step in cellular respiration, enabling the release of energy stored in the glucose molecule.

Question 22:
The answer is c) The electron transport chain.
In the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle or TCA cycle), electron carrier molecules such as NADH and FADH2 are generated. These carrier molecules then transfer the electrons they carry to the electron transport chain, where ATP is produced through a series of redox reactions.

Question 23:
The answer is a) 25°C.
To answer this question, you need to analyze the graph and determine at which temperature the activity of the two enzymes is the same. From the graph, it can be observed that the two enzymes have the same activity at approximately 25°C.

Question 24:
The answer is c) Molecules of red dye moved by diffusion from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.
To understand what happened in the experiment, you need to analyze the diagram. The movement of molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration is a characteristic of diffusion. In this case, the molecules of red dye dispersed evenly throughout the beaker of water due to diffusion.
