1 answer:

5 0

Lactic acid fermentation is the conversion of sugars to lactic acid. The fermentation of glucose to lactic acid is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH(OH)CO2HAlcoholic fermentation is the oxidation of sugars to produce ethanol and CO2. This is used to produce beer and wine. The fermentation of glucose to ethanol and CO2 is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH2OH + 2CO2<span>Anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of energy rich molecules without sufficient quantities of oxygen present. In human muscles, it is the same equation-wise as lactic acid fermentation, which is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH(OH)CO2H. Lactic acid requires oxygen to break it down further.</span>

Why is it important for the mass to be measured before measuring the volume.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

In this experiment the mass must be measured first because to determine volume water displacement is what is being measured. ... The reason for this is some solids will float on the water. Therefore the object's density is less dense than the water.

A fish that normally lives in salty water is placed in a tank containing fresh water. What do you think will happen to the cells

lapo4ka [179]

Salt water fish actually drink the salt water, excrete the salt, and are left with unsalted water in their body; they do this because the sea water, through the process of osmosis, draws out water from the body. <span>
When they are placed in fresh water, they continue to drink the water, but since the water is now less saline that the fish, water is no longer being drawn out, and in most cases (especially if the transfer was too quick), will start absorbing water, hence they will typically die. </span>
