Answer:

It loos its terminal phosphate and convert back into ATP.

Explanation:

ATP is also called the energy currency of cells. It contains energy in its high energy terminal phosphate bond. Once the bond is broken the energy gets release which is used in various metabolic reactions.

After losing the terminal phosphate the ATP converts into ADP. This ADP than converts back into ATP during substrate-level phosphorylation during the oxidation of organic compounds or in oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore ATP molecule gets converts into ADP after it gets used.

Answer is at the very end

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the asteroid = 10 x 10⁹kg

Distance between the asteroid = 850km

Unknown:

Force = ?

Solution:

We can predict the outcome of this reduction in distance between the two masses using the newton's law of universal gravitation.

The law states that "the gravitational force of attraction between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".

 Mathematically, we have;

          F =

F is the gravitational force

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹Nm²kg⁻²

m is the mass of the body

r is the distance between them.

 From this, we know that as the separation increases, the force of gravitation will reduce since the mass is constant.

The distance between the two asteroids decreased from 1000km to 850km, this will increase the force of attraction between them and we expect the force to be higher than 6700N.

 At 1000Km, force = 6700N,

 since as the distance reduces the force increases, we expect the force to be about 9200N.

Let us verify this by plugging the values into the equation:

       F =

      F = 9200N

Gametes, sporophyte, gametophyte, and zygote. Explain how the terms are related.
mart [117]
These terms represent the stages that occur in alternation of generation. Alternation of generation describes the process in the life of some eurkaryotes [mostly plants and protists], it refers to the alternation in form which occur in these organisms. One form is usually diploid with 2n chromosomes, this is called the sporophyte while the other form is haploid with only one set of chromosomes and it is called the gametophyte.
The spores go through mitosis and produce gametophyte, the gametophyte produce gamete. Two gametes fuse together to become a zygote.<span />
