Answer:
            A Swedish naturalist, Carolus Linnaeus also known as father of taxonomy because he developed a way to name and organize species which is still used in modern system of classification. In 1753 he proposed three kingdom system of classification which was published in <span> Systema Naturae.
Contributions:
                        His two important contributions were:
                       1. </span><span>A hierarchical classification system
<span>                       2. The system of binomial nomenclature.
Need of classification:
                           
At that time different local names were given to a single species in different languages. So it was difficult for people or scientists to remember the names. He proposed a binomial nomenclature system, in which scientific name was assigned to each organism which was based on species and generic part. It help in identifying an organism by single name through out the world.</span></span>

Answer:

Males are XY(have one X chromosome) so, when it comes to X linked diseases, they express everything that is on that chromosome. They only need one copy. Females need 2 copies of the recessive allele in order to have the same condition.

Sweat acts as a cooling agent on the body because of water high heat of vaporization or high specific heat capacity?
STatiana [176]

Explanation:

Large amounts of heat are needed to evaporate water, because H-bonds need to be broken. Sweating is an example of using water as d coolant. As the sweat evaporates it pulls heat away from the body. Application 'Water's thermal properties, its high specific heat, means that it can cool us.

A normal breath takes in about 1.0 L of air. If air has an average molar mass of 28.8 g per 1 mol and has a density of 0.97 g/mL
Ann [662]

Taking into account the definition of density and Avogadro's Number, you take 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules of air.

<h3>What is density</h3>

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.

In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.

Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

<h3>What is Avogadro's Number</h3>

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

<h3>Amount of molecules of air</h3>

In this case, you know that:

  • Density= 0.97 \frac{g}{mL}
  • Volume= 1 L= 1000 mL

Replacing in the definition of density:

0.97 \frac{g}{mL}=\frac{mass}{1000 mL}

Solving:

mass= 0.97 \frac{g}{mL}  ×1000 mL

<u><em>mass= 970 g</em></u>

Air has an average molar mass of 28.8 g per 1 mol. Then 970 grams are contained in 33.68 moles.

Now, considering the definition of Avogadro's number you can apply the following rule of three: If 1 mole of air contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 33.68 moles contains how many molecules?

amount of molecules = (33.68 moles× 6.023×10²³ molecules)÷ 1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules= 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules</em></u>

Finally, you take 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules of air.

Hibernating animals usually have low rates of metabolism. Periodically, they have episodes of arousal, where they rapidly increa
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The protein is known as Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) that is present in inner mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose cells of mammals and other organisms undergoing hibernation.

Function:

  • The protein allows the organisms to produce metabolic heat that helps in the organism’s regulation of body temperature.
  • This protein can also serve as a source of carbon for the production of carbohydrates when organism faces the period of prolonged fasting and thus help the organism to survive.
  • The protein also helps in the movement of protons into the mitochondrial matrix that ultimately activate the electron transport chain and releases more and more heat for body’s maintenance.

Hope it helps!
