Mars had an orbital period of 1.88 years. In two or more complete sentences,explain how to calculate the average distance from m
Vanyuwa [196]
This is an interesting problem involving astronomy, in fact, simple physics.
Let r=distance of sun to mars, in metres

<span>Mars had an orbital period of 1.88 years.
=>
tangential velocity, v, of the planet, in m/s is
v=\frac{2\pi{r}}{T}
</span>=\frac{2\pi{r}}{1.88*365.25*86400} m/s, accounting for leap years
=3.371*10^{-8}\pi{r}   m/s

The centripetal force, Fc, generated is
Fc=\frac{mv^2}{r}   
        where m=mass of mars = 6.39*10^(24) kg
=\frac{mv^2}{r}
=\frac{6.39*10^{24}v^2}{r}
=7.26168*10^9\pi^2r

The gravitation pull from the sun, Fg, is given by
Fg=\frac{GMm}{r^2}
    where G=grav. const., =6.67408*10^(-11) m^3<span> kg^(</span>-1)<span> s^(</span>-2)
              M=mass of sun=1.989*10^(30) kg
=\frac{6.67408*10^{-11}1.989*10^{30}6.39*10^{24}}{r^2}
=\frac{8.4826*10^44}{r^2}

Since the radial distance is in equilibrium, the average distance, r can be found by equation Fc=Fg and solving for r:
Fc=Fg
=>
7.26168*10^9\pi^2r=\frac{8.4826*10^44}{r^2}
Solving for the real root:
r^3=\frac{8.48256*10^44}{7.26168*10^9*%pi^2}
=\frac{1.1681263*10^{35}}{\pi^2}
=2.279*10^11 m

How many chromosomes does a body cell for the organism (egg and sperm) have?
DiKsa [7]
Growth and repair
creation of gametes (sex cells)
method of reproduction in unicellular organisms
Binary Fission - type of reproduction that occurs in bacterial cells, single celled organism splits and becomes two identical organisms

Chromosomes and DNA

Chromosomes are DNA wrapped around proteins to form an X-shaped structure.



The diagram will help you see the relationship.

1. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus
2. Chromosomes are made of DNA
3. Sections of chromosomes are called genes



DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid (it is the genetic code that contains all the information needed to build and maintain an organism)





Chromosome Structure







Chromosome Numbers

Each organism has a distinct number of chromosomes, in humans, every cell contains 46 chromosomes. Other organisms have different numbers, for instance, a dog has 78 chromosomes per cell.

Somatic Cells - body cells, such as muscle, skin, blood ...etc. These cells contain a complete set of chromosomes (46 in humans) and are called DIPLOID.

Sex Cells - also known as gametes. These cells contain half the number of chromosomes as body cells and are called HAPLOID

Chromosomes come in pairs, called Homologous Pairs (or homologs). Imagine homologs as a matching set, but they are not exacly alike, like a pair of shoes.

Diploid cells have 23 homologous pairs = total of 46

Haploid cells have 23 chromosomes (that are not paired) = total of 23

Homologous Chromosomes



Sex Determination

Chromosomes determine the sex of an offspring. In humans, a pair of chromosomes called SEX CHROMOSOMES determine the sex.

If you have XX sex chromosomes - you are female

If you have XY sex chromosomes - you are male

During fertilization, sperm cells will either contain an X or a Y chromosome (in addition to 22 other chromosomes - total of 23). If a sperm containing an X chromosome fertilizes an egg, the offspring will be female. If a sperm cell containing a Y chromosome fertilizes an egg, the offspring will be male.

Creation of a Zygote

When two sex cells, or gametes come together, the resulting fertilized egg is called a ZYGOTE

Zygotes are diploid and have the total 46 chromosomes (in humans)

Karyotype

A karyotype is a picture of a person's (or fetus) chromosomes. A karyotype is often done to determine if the offspring has the correct number of chromosomes. An incorrect number of chromosomes indicates that the child will have a condition, like Down Syndrome

Compare the Karyotypes below













Notice that a person with Down Syndrome has an extra chromosome #21. Instead of a pair, this person has 3 chromosomes - a condition called TRISOMY (tri = three)

Trisomy results when chromosomes fail to separate - NONDISJUNCTION - when sex cells are created. The resulting egg or sperm has 24 instead of the normal 23.

Other conditions result from having the wrong number of chromosomes:

Klinefelters Syndrome - XXY (sex chromosomes)

Edward Syndrome - Trisomy of chromosome #13

Dna codes for the sequence of amino acids in the primary structure of a protein, but not for sugars or lipids. This is because?
s2008m [1.1K]

Proteins are the main structural and functional components of cells.

Each group of three bases in mRNA constitutes a codon, and each codon specifies a particular amino acid. The mRNA sequence is thus used as a template to assemble in order the chain of amino acids that form a protein.

The sequence of a protein is determined by the DNA of the gene that encodes the protein change in the gene's DNA sequence may lead to a change in the amino acid sequence of the protein. The sequence of amino acids of a protein determines protein shape, since the chemical properties of each amino acid are forces that give rise to intermolecular interactions to begin to create secondary structures, such as α-helices and β-strands.
