Because it requires more energy to create a neutron from a proton than it does to create a proton from a neutron, protons were formed more frequently than neutrons in the early universe. The correct answer is option b.

To find the answer, we need to know more about the early universe.

<h3>How the formation of proton over neutrons was favored in the early universe?</h3>
  • A neutron is produced with greater energy than a proton.
  • However, later on, some of the protons were changed into neutrons.
  • Contrary to some claims, the proton is a stable particle that never decays, but the neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus and decays with a half life of around 10.5 minutes.
  • However, very few would have had time to decay on the timeline you mention in your question.
  • Every matter particle should have been accompanied by an antimatter particle, and every proton, neutron, and electron, by an anti-neutron and a positron, respectively.
  • Where did all the antimatter go is the great mystery. There have been a few attempts to explain this, but they have failed.

Thus, we can conclude that, the correct answer is option b.

Which of the following would NOT diffuse through the plasma membrane by means of simple diffusion?1 oxygen2 glucose3 a steroid h
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Option 2= Glucose

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made up of two phospholipid layers and each contain phosphate head and fatty acid or lipid tails. the head is present between the outer and inner boundaries and tail is present in between. The small non- polar molecules can pass the membrane through simple diffusion. This lipid tail restrict the passage of polar molecules including water soluble substances like glucose. However, transmembranes are present that allow the molecules to inter that are blocked by the tails.

Facilitated diffusion:

it is a type of diffusion in which caries protein without using the cellular energy shuttle the molecules to the cell membrane. Glucose is bind on the carrier protein ,change the shape and transport it from one to another side of membrane. In order to absorb the glucose red blood cells use this kind of diffusion.

Primary active transport:

The cells that are present along small intestine use this type of transport to pump the glucose inside the cell. The primary active transport require energy to transport the glucose inside.

Secondary active transport:

It is another method of transport of glucose into the cell. This method can not use ATP but it is based on concentration gradient of the sodium that provide electro chemical energy for the glucose transport.

This is my chemistry worksheet. It's a new topic my teacher will barely review with us. Help please???
TEA [102]
So to balance an equation, you need to get the same amount of each type of element on either side of the --> . So you pretty much are given the subscripts in the equations and you need to add coefficients (just normal numbers) in front of any formula that needs it, keeping anything balance.
KCl_{3}  + O_{2}  -\ \textgreater \  KCl_{3}
turns into
2KCl_{3}+ 3O_{2} -> 2KCl_{3}

These coefficient numbers are the molar ratios, so 2 moles of KCl3 for every 3 moles of O2   so 1. 3:2

Then you can use these ratios of find out how many moles of one thing are needed if you are given the amount of another.
\frac{moles of element 1}{cofficient 1}  =  \frac{moles of element 2}{cofficient 2}
and use cross multiplication to solve for whatever you don't know

NO, it should not be the process is still the same . the only factors about it that should change is the experiment itself.:)
