Answer:

Following are the answers-

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Autotrophs use both photosynthesis and chemo-synthesis to make their food and respiration to break it down. Plants, algae, and some bacteria are example of autotrophs.

Heterotroph is what people are. Hetarotrophs get energy from organic molecules taken in from the surroundings .

2) ATP is a multifunctional nucleotide used in cells as a coenzyme. ATP works in intracellular in energy transport, moving energy from one part of a cell to another for metabolism.

3) Fermentation is the Process of deriving energy from the oxidation of organic compounds. It is Important in anaerobic conditions when there is no oxidative phosphorylation to maintain ATP production by glycolysis.

Muscle fatigue is a common complaint in clinical practice. In humans, muscle fatigue can be defined as exercise-induced decrease in the ability to produce force. Here, to provide a general understanding and describe potential therapies for muscle fatigue, we summarize studies on muscle fatigue, including topics such as the sequence of events observed during force production. During homolactic fermentation, the production of lactic acid causes muscle fatigue.

4) The name of the pigment is Chlorophyll.

5) Light reactions are initiated by mainly green colored chlorophylls. They convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP & NADPH. ATP & NADPH carry energy to the 2nd part of photosynthesis, known as the dark reactions.

6) The rate of glucose production and the rate of oxygen output are the main factors.

7) 38 ATP molecules are needed.

8) Respiration using oxygen to break down food molecules is called aerobic respiration. Glucose is the molecule normally used for respiration . it is the main respiratory substrate. Glucose is oxidised to release its energy.
