Squamous epithelial cells are flat and are usually found lining surfaces that require a smooth flow of fluid such as your blood vessels, or lining areas that require a very thin surface for molecules to pass through, such as the air sacs in your lungs.

The squamous cell epithelium forms a barrier between the body and the exterior environment. The cells also provide protection for the underlying tissues

Draw the product that valine forms when it reacts with excess CH3CH2OH and HCl followed by a wash with aqueous base.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Product: ethyl L-valinate

Explanation:

If we want to understand what it is the molecule produced we have to an<u>alyze the reagents</u>. We have valine an <u>amino acid</u>, in this kind of compounds we have an <em>amine group</em> (NH_2) and a <em>carboxylic acid</em> group (COOH).  Additionally, we have an <u>alcohol </u>(CH_3CH_2OH) in the presence of HCl (a <u>strong acid</u>) in the first step, and a base (OH^-).

When we have an acid and an alcohol in a vessel we will have an <u>esterification reaction</u>. In other words, an ester is produced. As the <em>first step,</em> the oxygen in the C=O (in the carboxylic acid group) would be protonated. In the <em>second step</em>, the ethanol attacks the carbon in the C=O of the carboxylic acid group producing a new bond between the oxygen in the ethanol and the carbon in the carboxylic acid. In <em>step 3</em>, a proton is transferred to produce a better leaving group (H_2O). In <em>step 4</em>, a water molecule leaves the main structure to produce again the double bond C=O. <em>Finally</em>, a base (OH^-) removes the hydrogen from the C=O bond to produce ethyl L-valinate

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

A 100-w light bulb is about 16% efficient. how many joules of heat energy are siddipated by the bulb each second
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

84 Joules are wasted per second.

Explanation:

An efficiency of 16% means 84% is wasted as heat energy.  

Therefore;

For a 100W bulb;

Heat wasted = 84/100 × 100 W

                      = 84 W

Therefore;

84 W or 84 joules are wasted as heat per second

Calculate the volume of a gas at a pressure of 150 kpa if its volume at 180 kpa is 1500 L
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 1800 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Original pressure of gas (P1) = 180 kPa

Original volume of gas (V1) = 1500 L

New pressure of gas (P2) = 150 kPa

New volume of gas (V2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P1V2

180 kPa x 1500 L = 150 kPa x V2

270000 kPa•L = 150 kPa•V2

Divide both sides by 150 kPa

270000 kPa•L/150 kPa = 150 kPa•V2/150 kPa

1800L = V2

Thus, the new volume of the gas is 1800 liters.
