Identification of compounds is done by using retention factor values, simply known as Rf values. The...

The Effect Of Reactants On Products In Cellular Energetics

5 Pages 2251 Words
Introduction Cellular energetics are types of ways in which cells, whether eukaryotes or prokaryotes, obtain energy to drive functions in a cell. Cellular respiration is one type, for eukaryotes, that uses reactants like sugar, such as glucose, and oxygen to create products of carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP (Urry et al 2020). The purpose of...

Temperature's Effect on Respiration of Zophobas Morio and Pea Seeds
