Answer:

<h2>92%</h2>

Explanation:

When glucose is converted to ethanol by yeast, one mole of glucose is converted  into two moles of ethanol and two moles of carbon dioxide,  

and this process produce two moles of ATP.  

C6H12O6 → 2 C2H5OH + 2 CO2

When glucose is converted to ethanol by yeast (as in the production of beer) 92% of the chemical energy that was originally stored in glucose still remains in the end product, ethanol, that is produced.

A receptor can directly open a channel and thereby exert a(n) ____ effect, or it can produce slower but longer ____ effects.​
svlad2 [7]

Answer: ​ionotropic; metabotropic

Explanation:

A receptor can directly open the channel and exerts an ionotropic effect. The ionotropic effect takes place by the help of ionotropic receptors. These receptors are membrane bound receptor proteins which responds by the bonding of the ligand.

Due to ligand binding the channel opens and allows the movement of ions into the cells which helps in either increasing or decreasing the action potential.

The receptors can also bind to the ligand and produce metabotropic effect which means by the second messenger.

You INCORRECTLY perform an acid-fast stain on a smear from a mixed culture of Mycobacterium smegmatis (acid-fast) cells and Stap
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

In acid-fast staining, carbon fuchsin is used as a primary stain which dissolves the mycolic acid present in the cell wall of <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis </em>and penetrates through it which results in staining <em>Mycobacterium</em> red.

Staphylococcus aureus cell wall does not contain mycolic acid so carbon fuchsin does not penetrate its cell wall, therefore, it becomes colorless after destaining with acid alcohol.

After destaining step methylene blue is added to stain non-acid-fast bacteria blue. So if I mistakenly forgot to use methylene blue during the procedure <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis</em> will appear red due to carbon fuchsin present in their cell wall and S<em>taphylococcus aureus</em> will appear colorless because it is destained.

If you have normal vision, your eyes are not covered, and you are in a well-lit area, then opening your eyes is a necessary and
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

When your eyes are not covered and you are in an area with good lighting, then opening your eyes would certainly be a necessary thing to do to be able to see and this makes your vision to be normal.

According to Leo Gross, you can have a normal vision if you are 20 feet away from a particular spot and you see what a normal person sees on that same spot. There is the Snellen chart one is also expected to read in that position, so maintaining a normal vision means someone has 20/20 vision.

ehidna [41]
<span>Depletion of the ozone layer. Choloroflourocarbon (CFCS) are dangerous because of their destructive reaction with Ozone particles, which provide the Earth with a protective layer or shield against UV radiation. Depletion of the ozone layer begins when when CFC gets into the stratosphere. Sunlight breaks up cfcs releasing Chlorine Atom. Chlorine atoms in turn react with Ozone, starting a chemical cycle that destroys the ozone layer in that area. Once the ozone layer is depleted, there's nothing holding back the harmful UVB wavelengths of ultraviolet light (UV light) from passing through the Earth's atmosphere causing havoc on plants and animals.</span>
