The best way to gain weight is to increase your _______ intake.

Katarina [22]

The best answer is D.

Carbohydrates get rapidly digested and are quickly converted to glucose . Once glucose levels in the blood rise, insulin that is produced by the pancreas begins to remove excess glucose from the blood and stimulates the liver to turn it into a type of starch called glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscles.

However the body can only store a limited amount of glycogen so the excess glucose is stored as body fat (adipose tissue). This is the process of putting on weight.

Calculate the mass defect for oxygen-16 given this data. Round to the 5es001-1.jpg decimal place. mass of an oxygen-16 atom: 15.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of oxygen atom = 15.994914amu

Mass of a proton = 1.00728amu

Mass of a neutron = 1.00866amu

Unknown:

Mass defect = ?

From the periodic table, the number of the elementary particles in a neutral Oxygen atom is given below:

Number of protons = 8

Number of neutrons = 8

Number of electrons = 8

Solution

The mass defect examines the difference between the actual mass of an atom and sum of masses of the nucleons.

The mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus which contains protons and neutrons. Electrons have little to no weight compared with the nucleons.

To calculate the mass defect, we first know the mass of the nucleons first:

1 proton has a mass of 1.00728amu

8 protons will weigh: (8 x 1.00728)amu = 8.05824amu

For the neutrons:

1 neutron has a mass of 1.00866amu

8 neutrons will weigh: (8 x 1.00866)amu = 8.06928amu

Mass of the nucleons = mass of protons + mass of neutrons

= 8.05824amu + 8.06928amu

= 16.12752amu

The mass defect = mass of the nucleons - mass of the atom

= 16.12752amu - 15.994914amu

= 0.132606amu ≅ 0.13261amu to 5 decimal places

Natural selection causes A. changes in allele frequencies within a population. B. changes in the mechanism of inheritance. C. th

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Natural selection causes change in allele frequencies within a population.

So option A is correct one.

Explanation:

Natural selection generally work on an organism’s phenotype, or observable features. Phenotype is often largely a product of genotype (the alleles, or gene versions, the organism carries). When a phenotype produced by certain alleles helps organisms survive and reproduce better than their peers, natural selection can increase the frequency of the helpful alleles from one generation to the next – that is, it can cause microevolution.
