When sugars are broken down to produce usable energy for cells, a large amount of heat is released. Explain how the water inside

a cell helps to keep a cell’s temperature constant.

Answer:

Explanation:

This is due to the fact that water has  high specific heath capacity,which makes it to accommodate large amount of heat energy produced by the catabolic reactions which liberated heat.

General, the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of a particular substance over a given amount is called the specific  heat capacity of that substance. Therefore for water, the amount of heat energy needed to raise the mass of 1kg of water by 1 degree is called the specific heat capacity of water.

Since large hydrogen bonds  held water molecules together,it takes a long time of heat energy to break these bonds free to raise the temperature of water.Hence, water in living cells is able to accommodate large amount of heat energy to stabilise the temperate of the cells.

Use the information from Parts B and C to solve this problem. If a rabbit of genotype AaBb is bred to a rabbit of genotype AaBb,
Kipish [7]

The question is incomplete and the complete question is

Suppose that ear length in rabbits is controlled by two additive genes, each of which has two alleles. A true-breeding female (aabb) with 6-cm ears is mated to a true-breeding male (AABB) with 16-cm ears.

Answer:

AABb or AaBB

Explanation:

We know that,

aabb genotype - 6 cm

AABB genotype- 16-cm

To calculate the length of earlobe contributed by each allele in a genotype is :

1. length of aabb/4 or 6/4= 1.5 cm (a and b contribute for 1.5 cm each)

2. Length of AABB/4 or 16/4= 4 cm (A and B contribute for 4 cm each)

Now to have the earlobe to be 13.5 cm long then the genotype must be

13.5 = 4+4+4+1.5 or A+A+B+b or A+a+B+B

Therefore, the genotype will be-either AABb or AaBB

What biological macromolecule is made up of monomers like the one shown below? Answer Carbohydrate Fat Nucleic acid Protein
LekaFEV [45]

Answer;

-Nuclei acid

Explanation;

-Nucleic acids are molecules that allow organisms to transfer genetic information from one generation to the next. These macromolecules store the genetic information that determines traits and makes protein synthesis possible.

-Nucleic acids include DNA and RNA. These molecules are composed of long strands of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar, and a phosphate group.
