Answer: Option C

Explanation: The balanced chemical equation that explains photosynthesis is stated below:

6CO2(g) + 6H20(g) --------> C6H12O6 + 6O2(g) + energy (in from of ATP)

From the equation, 6 atoms of carbon C are contained in 6 moles of atmospheric Carbondioxide CO2, that reacted with 6 moles of water molecules H2O, contained in plant cells to yield 1 mole of glucose C6H12O6 and chemical energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)

Answer:

C) 6

Explanation:

The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6. According to this formula, we can find out how many atoms of each element it takes to produce a glucose molecule. In this formula, the letters represent the chemical element that makes up glycolysis, while the numbers placed on the right side of each letter signify the number of atoms of that element that is needed to produce glucose.

In the chemical formula of glucose, the letter "C" represents the chemical element "carbon". In addition, the number "6" next to the letter "C" represents the number of carbons needed to create a glucose molecule. For this reason, we can say that 6 carbon atoms are needed to generate 1 molecule of glucose.

Which of the following are examples of exocytosis?
Alexxx [7]

Exocytosis is basically when your vesicles transport materials out of a cell.

Once the neurotransmitters are synthesised and packaged into vesicles, they are transported until the vesicles reach the cell membrane. Then the 2 bilayers rearrange themselves so that the vesicles are able to fuse with the membrane . Once that occurs, the neurotransmitters will spill out whatever it was carrying.

Two examples of exocytosis are

1) your nerve cells releasing transmitters (explained in the description above)

2)your T cells sending vesicles filled with enzymes to viral infected cells
