Red blood cells lack mitochondria. as a result, atp production is solely through

The right answer is glycolysis (anaerobic respiration).

The red blood cell is a cell that does not require much energy to live, it is content with anaerobic glycolysis. This may seem paradoxical, because the red blood cell is rich in oxygen due to its transport by hemoglobin, but the red blood cells saves energy consumption so as not to draw oxygen and transport the maximum of it.

The red blood cell must produce energy for 2 main purposes:

Maintain the integrity of the membrane,.

Maintain Hb in its active form.

americans began to notice growing differences between the northern and southern sections of the country. there were more people living in cities in the north, which made it more urban. more people lived on farms in the south, which made it more rural. while many people were farmers in the northern states, there were now other ways to make a living, such as working in mechanical cotton gins factories manufacturing cloth, tools and other goods. people in the north supported high tariffs on goods imported from europe because the extra cost encouraged people to “buy american” instead. in the southern states, planters did not like tariffs because they sold most of their production to europe and bought their tools from there as well. southerners believed the protective tariff was something that only northern factory owners keep their profits high. so the southern politicians came up with an idea. they would opt out. they would simply ignore the protective tariff. it was ‘null and void’ in south carolina. the state would not collect the taxes on goods imported into south carolina, no matter what the president said they had to do. this decision led to the nullification crisis.
