BartSMP [9]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Collagen is a "fibrous proteins" present in the extracellular matrix.

Explanation:

Protein are made up of hundreds or thousands of smaller units called amino acids and is made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur and is found in many foods. Proteins are organic molecules found in living organisms.

There are three types of proteins; fibrous, globular, and membrane.

Collagen which is a fibrous proteins, form muscle fiber, tendons, connective tissue and bone.

Collagen are naturally occurring proteins that consist of single molecules made up of amino-acids, which are in turn built of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. It is mostly found in fibrous tissues such as tendons, ligaments, and skin.

The synthesis of collagen occurs in two stages: intracellular and extracellular.

Collagen is an abundant connective tissues such as cartilage, tendons, bones, and ligaments. Collagen is a contributing factor to variation in meat tenderness and texture.

Kitty [74]
Mass  =  Density  ×   Volume
          =  30.0 mg / mL  ×  375 mL
          =  11250 mg
          =  11.25 g

∴ the total mass of insulin in the bottle is 11.25 g (11250 mg)

\The specific heat of aluminum is 0.21 cal g°C . How much heat is released when a 10 gram piece of aluminum foil is taken out of
atroni [7]

<u>Answer: </u>The amount of heat released is 84 calories.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The equation used to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

Q= m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

Q = heat gained  or released = ? Cal

m = mass of the substance = 10g

c = specific heat of aluminium = 0.21 Cal/g ° C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=(10-50)^oC=-40^oC  

Q=10g\times 0.21Cal/g^oC\times-40^oC

Q = -84 Calories

Hence, the amount of heat released is 84 calories.

A solution is saturated in CO2 gas and KNO3 at room temperature. What happens when the solution is warmed to 75°C?
nignag [31]

Answer:

gaseous CO2 bubbles out of the solution

Explanation:

We already know that the dissolution of a gas in water is exothermic. Hence, when the temperature of a solution containing a gas is increased, the solubility of the gas decreases and the gas bubbles out of the solution.

Similarly, the dissolution of KNO3 in water is endothermic. This implies that the solubility of the solid increases with increasing temperature.

Thus the solid becomes more soluble at 75°.
