<u>Answer:</u> Ammonia is considered as a base.

<u>Explanation:</u>

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen or hydronium ion concentration that are present in a solution.

The equation representing pH of the solution follows:

pH=-\log[H^+]

pH range of the solution varies from 0 to 14.

There are 3 types of solution: acidic, basic and neutral

  • If the pH of the solution is from 0 to 6.9, the solution is said to be acidic.
  • If the pH of the solution is from 7.1 to 14, the solution is said to be basic.
  • If the pH of the solution is 7, the solution is said to be neutral.

We are given:

Ammonia has a pH above 7. So, this compound is a basic compound.

Hence, ammonia is considered as a base.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

<h2>Dog's mitochondria lack the transport protein that transport  pyruvate ( end product of glycolysis) across the outer mitochondrial  membrane .</h2>

Explanation:

1. As given here that dog's mitochondria can use only fatty acids and also  amino acids for their respiration, and  as compared to others, Dong's cell produce more lactate then normal,  this indicate that his mitochondrial membrane is different then others.  

2. The aerobic phases of cellular respiration in eukaryotes occur within  mitochondria. These aerobic phases are the TCA Cycle and the electron transport chain. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and the products of glycolysis enter into the mitochondria to continue cellular respiration.

3. These condition shows that dog's mitochondria lack the transport protein of mitochondria that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial  membrane.

Answer:

chloroplast organelle

Answer. The photosynthesis process takes place in the chloroplast organelle in the growing tissues. As the chlorophyll pigment is available in the chloroplast organelle which is the main photosynthetic pigment, with the help of the molecules they capture the energy of light.

Explanation:

chloroplasts

In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.
