Answer:

126 mm Hg

Explanation:

the percentage by volume of oxygen in the air is 21%. Therefore it also contributes to the 21% of the total barometric pressure of the air.

Now, 21% of 600 mm Hg

=21/100*600= 126mm Hg

therefore The partial pressure of O2in Antonito’s air is approximately is 126 mm of Hg.

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. 126

Explanation:

Hi! Let's solve this!

We have 21% oxygen in the air, the rest is mostly nitrogen (78%) and the remaining 5 are other gases. So:

The partial pressure of oxygen is 21% of 600 mmHg.

That is calculated as follows:

ppO2 = 600 * 21/100 = 126 mmHg

We conclude that the correct answer is option b. 126

Chlorophyll is found in and around the photosystems embedded in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts.

The chloroplasts are organelles found in eukaryotic algae. The chloroplasts in eukaryotic celss are contained in the cytoplasm together with other organelles.

<span>Since the chlorophyll is insided the chloroplast which is inside the cytoplasm, it is safe to say that the chlorophyll of the green algae is spread throughout the cytoplasm of its cells.</span>
