<h2>Answer:</h2>

The compound is tripropylene glycol .

Monomers of C9H20O4 = propylene glycol

<h3>Explain:</h3>

Tripropylene glycol is formed by the condensation of 3 monomers with the lose of 2 molecules of water.

The breakdown of tripropylene glycol:

C9H20O4 + 2H2O → C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 + C3H8O2

Belonging to the large family of alcohols, propylene glycol is a chemical element widely used by the food industry thanks to its recognized emulsifying properties. It is referable to its acronym E1520. This colorless, low volatile and soluble diol is also used in many other industries. Pharmaceutical, cosmetic, aeronautic, textile industries ... Propylene glycol is involved in the composition of many polymers such as polyester. Non-toxic when inhaled, propylene glycol is used in electronic cigarette filling fluid to produce an aerosol effect comparable to that of smoke.

With respect to polypropylene glycol, each condensation of propylene glycol causes a loss of a water molecule

C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 ==> C9H20O4 + 2H2O

Answer:

Detrusor muscle

Explanation:

Detrusor muscle is found in the bladder. Contraction of the detrusor muscle compresses the urinary bladder and expels it's contents into the urethra.
Trigone acts as a funnel that channels urine into the urethra when the urinary bladder contracts.
Internal urethral sphincter is located in the neck of the urinary bladder. It provides involuntary control over the discharge of urine from the bladder.
External urethral sphincter, on the other hand is located where the urethra passes through the urogenital diaphragm and unlike the internal urethra sphincter it is under voluntary control.

Answer:

Mitosis it's the Anaphase

when the spindle fibres contract, each chromosome splits at the centromere, and its two chromatids are pulled apart towards opposite ends of the cell. Each chromatids is actually a single stranded chromosome, since DNA replication took place
