Ans.

Glucose catabolism is defined as the breakdown of glucose molecule to provide energy to the cells, in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecules. In first step of glucose calabolism, glucose is converted into pyruvate. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate converts into either lactic acid (lactic acid fermentation) or ethanol (alcoholic fermentation).

In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate enters into Krebs cycle, in the form of acetyl-coA. NADH, FADH2, and CO2 molecules are released by Krebs cycle. The NADH and FADH2 molecules enter into electron transport chain that occurs in inner mitochondrial membrane and results in formation of energy-giving ATP molecules.

In given diagram, a). represents pyruvate molecule, b). represents anaerobic respiration, c). represents NADH or FADH2 molecules, and d). represents ATP molecules.

The answer in this question is Phrenology. Phrenology is classified as the discredited pseudoscientific theory of the brain that claimed that moral character, personality characteristics and intelligence could be determined by examining the bumps on a person's skull. Phrenology is focused on the measurements of the human skull which is based on the concept of the brain is the organ of the mind.

Carbon capture and sequestration

While it's not a power generation technology, carbon capture and sequestration—technologies that allow for the scrubbing of carbon from power plants for storage in underground reservoirs—may finally be coming of age after years of trial and error.

Technology pilot demonstrations at coal-based power plants in places like Australia and the U.S. have sparked new interest in the technology.

The hope is, it could become an enabler for other technologies, such as biomass or algae-based biofuels that produce carbon emissions. That's because organic fuels pull carbon from the atmosphere before converting it to fuel.

In the fluid-mosaic model of the plasma membrane, the phospholipid molecules are oriented so that the _____________ heads are fa

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Hydrophilic heads facing exterior

Hydrophobic tails facing interior

Explanation:

In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed to describe the structure of the plasma membrane. This model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipids, cholesterol and proteins. The phospholipid component is composed of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate-containing head, which are arranged in two adjacent layers forming the phospholipid bilayer in the membrane of biological organisms.

Phospholipids have both the hydrophilic and hydrophobic region. Hence they are said to be AMPHIPATHIC.

The head of the phospholipid is negatively charged due to its phosphate content, making it polar and hydrophilic i.e. water-loving. This hydrophilic head faces the exterior of the cell in order to interact with fluids.

The tails of the phospholipid are long fatty acids that keep away from water i.e. hydrophobic. Due to their water-fearing nature, they avoid water and face the interior of the cell, where each tail face each other.
