Which of the following is not a primary function of the products of the pentose phosphate pathway? a. To maintain levels of NADP

Answer: The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

As you can see in every step of the pathway, ATP is not generated directly. Although, in the oxidative phase, molecules of NADPH are produced and these can be used for synthesize ATP indirectly; the NADPH molecules are hihgly demanded in tissues that carry out constantly synthesis of fatty acids, such as liver.

Therefore the correct answer is D.

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.  Both atoms are joint together by electrostatic interaction and ionic compound sodium chloride is formed.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive and both bonded atoms connected together through covalent bond.

Solid iron(III) oxide reacts with hydrogen gas to form solid iron and liquid water.
Marrrta [24]

Hello, this question is incomplete. The complete question would be:

"Write the balanced chemical equation for the following reaction.

Solid iron(III) oxide reacts with hydrogen gas to form solid iron and liquid water"

Answer:

Fe2O3 + 3 H2 = 2 Fe + 3 H2O

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, the structure of atoms as chemical elements is unchanged. Atoms in one element do not become atoms in another element. There is also no loss or creation of new atoms. The number of atoms of the reagents must be equal to the number of atoms of the products. When this happens, we say that the chemical equation is balanced.

For this reason, we can state that the balanced chemical reaction where solid iron (III) oxide reacts with hydrogen gas to form solid iron and liquid water would be:

<em>Fe2O3 + 3 H2 = 2 Fe + 3 H2O </em>

What tool would you use to measure grams
steposvetlana [31]
When measuring the weight or mass of a small object, you can use a scale or a balance. You can use a scale to measure milligrams, centigrams, grams, and small numbers of kilograms. When measuring small amounts of capacity, you can use a graduated cylinder. Graduated cylinders can measure milliliters and centiliters.

final answer: scale or a balance
