What occurs during decomposition reaction?

Biology
2 answers:
romanna [79]3 years ago

A decomposition reaction occurs when one reactant breaks down into two or more products. It can be represented by the general equation:

AB → A + B

In this equation, AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction. The arrow shows the direction in which the reaction occurs.

Q: What is the chemical equation for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to water(H2O) and oxygen (O2)?

A: The equation for this decomposition reaction is:

<span>2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O<span>2</span></span>

Hey!!

Here is your answer >>>

Decomposition reaction is when, a compound breaks into multiple compounds

For example -

2Al2O3 => 4Al + 3O2

Basic interpretation =

AB => A + B

Hope my answer helps!

What is not a way in which prokaryotes are useful to humans?
scoray [572]

The correct answer is option D, None of the choice.

Prokaryotes like Escherichia coli are used in drug production. Rhizobium bacteria (prokaryotes) in the soil,  form symbiotic relationship with the roots of the plant to fix nitrogen.  And prokaryotes are measured in terms of colony-forming units (CFU) of bacteria to produce nutritious yoghurt.

What would happen to a sample of your red blood cells if they were placed in a hypotonic solution?
timofeeve [1]

<em>Hypotonic solutions contain a low concentration of solute relative to another solution ( The cells cytoplsm) </em>

<u>Thus, when a cell in placed in a hypotonic solution, the water diffuses into the cell, which causes the cell to swell up. </u>

<em>The cell has lower solute concentration than the solution. So the solution is HYPERTONIC and the cell is HYPOTONIC. </em>

As a result, a cell that does not have a rigid cell wall, such as a red blood cell, t'will most definitely swell and burst when placed in a hypotonic solution.

In nutrient-rich environments (like your mouth), bacteria can use the provided amino acids to synthesize their proteins. However
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A  

Explanation:

The citric acid cycle is the cyclic chain of reactions taking place as a phase of the cellular respiration as it gets halted in the absence of oxygen. The citric acid cycle converts the obtained acetyl-CoA to a usable form of energy in the form of ATP, NADH and FADH₂.

The citric acid cycle forms intermediates which are utilised by the organisms to synthesise the various biomolecules like amino acids, purines and pyrimidines.

The intermediates like alpha-ketoglutarate forms arginine, proline and glutamine whereas oxaloacetate forms asparagine and aspartate. If bacteria do not receive the amino acids then they will synthesise the amino acids using intermediates of the citric acid cycle.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
