How fast do seismec waves caused by earthquakes travel​

Biology
1 answer:
Ipatiy [6.2K]3 years ago
4 0

Seismic wave fields are recorded by a seismometer, hydrophone (in water), or accelerometer. The propagation velocity of the waves depends on density and elasticity of the medium.Velocity tends to increase with depth and ranges from approximately 2 to 8 km/s in the Earth's crust, up to 13 km/s in the deep mantle.

What is substrate-level phosphorylation?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

D --  ATP synthesis when the phosphate donor is a substrate with high phosphoryl transfer potential

Explanation:

Substrate- level phosphorylation is the synthesis of ATP from ADP by the transfer of phosphoryl group from a substrate with high phosphoryl group potential to the ADP molecule.

In substrate-level phosphorylation, the donor is a phosphorylated intermediate molecule with a high phosphate transfer potential and it is a way through which phosphate in introduced into a molecule, the other two ways are oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation. In substrate-level phosphorylation, a PO4^2- is transferred from a phosphate intermediate (substrate) to ADP to form ATP. Phosphorylase and kinases are enzymes involved in this reaction. An example is the reaction in glycolysis which involves phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to form Pyruvate and ATP. This is to ensure adequate supply of energy to cells and also during anoxia so as not to make mitochodria strain the glycolytic ATP reserves.

Facilitated diffusion

<span>The word 'diffusion' means free movement across distance, with or without the presence of a barrier. However, there is a phenomenon known as facilitated diffusion which occurs at the cellular level. The cell does not allow free radicals and other harmful substances to enter and harm the cell organs. This is possible due to the structure of the cell membrane. The structure is such that, it allows only certain things to pass in and out of the cell. One such activity that allows selective movement in and out of the cell is the process of facilitated diffusion.</span>
