The soda contains CO2 that is dissolved CO2 reacts with water
CO2+H2O--->H2CO3
to form carbonic acid
this is a weak acid but it gives protons to water
H2CO3+H2O-->-HCO3+H30+
pH=-lg[H3O+]
[H3O+] is the molar concentration
Therefore the acid present in the solution causes the pH to be lower than 7. It can either be the H2CO3 if it is a carbonated beverage or citric acid from lime juice.
Answer:a. mitosis
Explanation: mitosis is a type of cell division found in somatic cells.
The daughter cells contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Mitosis involves four stages namely;prophase, metaphase, anaphase,telophase.
There is also an interphase,of normal functioning of the cells.
Mitosis is important in asexual reproduction , regeneration and replacement of lost cells.
It also causes growth in organisms.
Unlike meiosis , crossing over does not occur in mitosis thus there is no variation in daughter cells
In my Biology Honors Class, they taught about gastric juice, or also known as (p H) which is formed by stomach glands, is very acidic and can seriously mess up enzyme trypsin functions. After all, enzymes are a type of catalyst that help break down food, which means that enzymes are a sort of digestive acid as well. Hope this helps!
Answer:
The kelp population would decrease: sea otters eat urchins, and urchins eat kelp.
Explanation:
The diagrammatic illustration in this question is showing a food web made up of a variety of species feeding on one another. As shown in the food web, sea otters are one of the top predators that can eat a wide variety of organisms.
Sea urchins feed directly on kelp, however, the population of sea urchins can be controlled by sea otters which feed on sea urchins. Hence, if population of sea otters declined, more sea urchins will be available to feed on the kelp population, hence, will DECREASE.
