The above illustration shows the molecule used by some cells to temporarily store energy. The molecule is used in almost all ene

rgy-requiring reactions in cells. This molecule could be considered the "gas" that powers a cell's "engine." What is the name of this molecule?

It seems that you have missed the necessary details and options for us to answer this question so  I had to look for it. Anyway, based on the given description above, the molecule which is considered the "gas" that powers a cell's "engine" is called the Adenosine Triphosphate or ATP. Hope this helps.

Explain Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun. Why does it get so cold at night?
alexdok [17]

Answer/Explanation: On Mercury temperatures can get as hot as 430 degrees Celsius during the day and as cold as -180 degrees Celsius at night.

Mercury is the planet in our solar system that sits closest to the sun. The distance between Mercury and the sun ranges from 46 million kilometers to 69.8 million kilometers. The earth sits at a comfy 150 million kilometers. This is one reason why it gets so hot on Mercury during the day.

The other reason is that Mercury has a very thin and unstable atmosphere. At a size about a third of the earth and with a mass (what we on earth see as ‘weight’) that is 0.05 times as much as the earth, Mercury just doesn’t have the gravity to keep gases trapped around it, creating an atmosphere. Due to the high temperature, solar winds, and the low gravity (about a third of earth’s gravity), gases keep escaping the planet, quite literally just blowing away.

Atmospheres can trap heat, that’s why it can still be nice and warm at night here on earth.

Mercury’s atmosphere is too thin, unstable and close to the sun to make any notable difference in the temperature.

Space is cold. Space is very cold. So cold in fact, that it can almost reach absolute zero, the point where molecules stop moving (and they always move). In space, the coldest temperature you can get is 2.7 Kelvin, about -270 degrees Celsius.

Sunlight reflected from other planets and moons, gases that move through space, the very thin atmosphere and the surface of Mercury itself are the main reasons that temperatures on Mercury don’t get lower than about -180 °C at night.

VLD [36.1K]

1. Polymer refers to a lengthened, chain-like molecule comprising repeated units associated end to end.  

2. Ceramic refers to a hard, brittle, corrosion and heat tolerant substance formed by administering a non-metallic mixture of minerals to intense heat.  

3. Thermoset refers to the plastics, which exhibit low elongations and cannot get recycled again.  

4. Thermoplastic refers to the plastics, which exhibit high elongations and can be recycled.  

5. Crystal refers to the solid form originating from the organization of ions, atoms, or molecules in precise patterns of geometry.  

6. Composite refers to a carbon fiber entrenched in a polymer resin matrix.

Which of the following is a true statement? a. Mammals were the prominent species just before the extinction of dinosaurs. b. Ma
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Option A is wrong. Mammals were not the prominent species before the extinction of dinosaurs because the mammal species that lived during the dinosaurs' era were so small that they only weighed several grams and occupied small areas as their habitats.

Option C is wrong. As dinosaurs became extinct, reptiles and "birds" remained as their descendant which evolved to some of the species that we know today.

Option D is wrong. Pangea started to break up to form the geographic isolation for the diversion of many species around 175 million years ago.

So the correct answer is B. Massive extinction disrupts and changes the food chain in such a big way that it triggers a domino effect that leads to species adapting to their new environment and diversifying thus forming new species in the process.

I hope this answer helps.
