What does pH measure?

Biology

Answer: Answer below

Explanation: pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. What the pH scale measures is basically the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxyl atoms in a solution. So, the last option is the answer. Another thing to keep in mind is solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, and solutions with a pH over 7 are alkaline or considered a base. I hope this helped! Good luck:)

Match the following. 1. period during the life of a cell when it has finished mitotic division G1 phase 2. period during the lif

zimovet [89]

Ans.

The cell cycle includes a series of events that results in the formation of daughter cells from a single parent cell. These events include interphase, followed by M phase. The interphase consists of three phases, G0 (Gap 0) phase, G1 phase, S (synthesis) phase, G2 phase, while the M phase consists two phases, karyokinesis (mitotic or meiotic phase) and cytokinesis. At the end of cell cycle, cell enters into G0 phase again and the cycle goes subsequently.

The sequesnce of cell cycle events can be written as follows:

G0→G1→S→G2→M→G0→G1→....

Thus, according to the cell cycle sequence, these terms can be matched as:

1. When a cell finishes its mitotic division, it enters to G0 phase, which is also known as rest phase. Thus, statement 1. matches with G0 phase.

2. The period between end of mitosis and synthesis of genetic material for next mitotic division shows G1 phase, in which cell prepares itself for division. Thus, statement 2. matches with G1 phase.

3. The period of interphase between synthesis of new genetic material and the beginning of mitosis is G2. Thus, statement 3. matches with G2 phase.

4. The period between two mitotic division is interphase. Thus, statement 4. matches with interphase.

5. The period of cell division, during which a cell is performing actual cell division is M phase. Thus, statement 5. matches with M phase.

6. The period of interphase, during which genetic material gets doubled is synthesis or S phase. Thus, statement 6. matches with S phase.

Use the normal ecg trace below to determine how many seconds the trace represents as well as the heart rate.

mezya [45]

Attached is the image of the concerned ECG reading.

In reading the ECG, first you read the heart rate. To read the heart rate, you must count for the number of small boxes in between QRS complexes, specifically R-R intervals. These number of small boxes will then be used to divide 1500. In this example, there are 20 small boxes between R-R intervals. 1500 divided by 20 is 75, so the heart rate of this ECG reading is 75 beats per minute.

Another way, albeit less accurate, is to count the big squares between R-R intervals and instead of dividing it by 1500, you divide it by 300.

Why more atp is produced in aerobic respiration than in anaerobic respiration

Oxana [17]

Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation. This works by the energy released in the consumption of pyruvate being used to create a chemiosmotic potential by pumping protons across a membrane.

Aerobic metabolism is 19 times more efficient than anaerobic metabolism (which yields 2 mol ATP per 1 mol glucose). They share the initial pathway of glycolysis but aerobic metabolism continues with the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The post glycolytic reactions take place in the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells, and in the cytoplasm in prokaryotic cells.

What operation is used when simplifying fractions and conversion units?

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

cancellation

Explanation:

What trait do all solar system models share?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

it's answer is : The planets have a circular orbit around the sun.

Explanation:

The traits that all the solar system models do share is that they have a circular orbit around the sun. The planets are located at different distance from the sun and revolve around the sun from a different distance. The nearest is mercury and the most far planet is Neptune.

Hope it helps :)
