Answer:

36 ATPs

Explanation:

Cellular respiration starts with glycolysis wherein glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate. The process of glycolysis forms two molecules of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation for each glucose molecule. Both pyruvate molecules are converted into acetyl CoA to enter into the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle forms two ATP molecules by substrate-level phosphorylation. NADH and FADH2 formed during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle are oxidized by the electron transport chain. This process also forms as many as 34 ATP molecules. If acetyl CoA is not formed, the total ATP gain per glucose will be only 2 ATP molecules (from glycolysis only) which is 38-2= 36 less than the total.

Answer: positive sodium ions

Explanation:

This relates to the Action Potential which is what a nerve cell goes through when it needs to send information down the nerve cell to another cell and so on till it gets to the destination of the message.

The information is transmitted when the segments of the axon fire and when they do, positive sodium ions come in from outside the cell to the inside thereby making the inside positive. The previous segment would return to a resting potential when potassium ions which are negative, rush into the cell.

What does outliers mean and can you use it in a sentence please!!!
irakobra [83]
An outlier in human society means an extraordinary achiever.

One author, Malcolm Gladwell, theorized that 10,000 hours of work is the secret sauce for becoming an outlier.

My thoughts?Yes and no.

Example: I can't imagine someone with an 80 IQ  having the same achievements in physics vs someone with an 150 IQ. Even if the low IQ person puts in 10,000 hours and the 150 IQ person only puts in 1000 hours.
