Talja [164]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Glucose is a simple sugar with a total of 6 carbon atoms in its structure. Pyruvate has a total of three carbon atoms. Two molecules of pyruvate are obtained per glucose by glycolysis.  None of the carbon of glucose is released in the form of CO2 during glycolysis. Therefore, the radio-labeled C-1 of glucose will be the component of the carbon skeleton of one of the total of two pyruvate molecules produced during glycolysis. So, 50% of the pyruvate will exhibit radioactivity.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Temperatures gradient

Explanation:

There are distinct temperature gradient differences in the layers of atmosphere usually due to the main air molecule composition of the layers, the density of the molecules. The Troposphere the lowest layers is the densest and temperature decreases with increase in altitude. The stratosphere, on the other hand, has an increase in temperature with increase in altitude. Temperatures decrease with altitude in the mesosphere while the parameter increases with altitude in the thermosphere.

gladu [14]

Answer:

Mammals

Birds

Explanation:

The Organs which perform same function and looks but they are different in their structure from each other are called as analogous organs.

Organs are the structures that made up of two or more tissues organized to carry out a particular function.

An organ or bone that appears in different animals with same function is called homologous structure.

Homologous organs have similar origin n basic structure but perform different functions in different organisms. Analogous organs are different in basic structure but perform same functions.

Different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related.

Examples

The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar sharing common traits.

The forelimbs of all mammals have the same basic bone structure.The structures are similar because they evolved to do the same job.  For example, the wings of bats and birds.
