It needs energy so living things can be able to move, maintain our body temperature, and build large molecules. Since food is chemical energy for living things, cells need oxygen so it can release energy form the food. That process will be called aerobic respiration.

Hope this helps! :)

Why do alligators need a warm climate?

Reptile [31]

The answer is B.They cannot produce enough heat to keep their bodies warm.

In order to survive, the alligators rely on warm weather, and they are most active when the environment is 82-92 degrees Fahrenheit. They can survive below or above this temperature range but they may spend that time struggling to stay warm or stay cool.

Determine the type of alcohol corresponding to each given description or name. 1-pentanol 3-ethyl-3-pentanol 2-hexanol An alcoho

pochemuha

Answer:

1). 1-pentanol - Primary

2). 3-ethyl-3-pentanol - Tertiary

3). 2-hexanol - Secondary

4). Alcohol with two other carbons attached to the carbon with the hydroxyl group - Secondary

5). Alcohol with one other carbon attached to the carbon with the hydroxyl group - Primary

6). Alcohol with three other carbons attached to the carbon with the hydroxyl group - Tertiary

Explanation:

The distinct types of alcohol have been matched with the categories above as per their descriptions provided. In chemistry, alcohols have been categorized into three different categories namely primary, secondary, and tertiary.

In the primary type, those alcohols are involved in which there is an association of hydroxyl group to a primary atom of carbon along with a minimum of two atoms of hydrogen. Example; ethanol.

In the secondary type, the alcohols have an association of carbon atoms to hydroxyl with a single atom of hydrogen and has a formula of '-CHROH.' Example: 2 - propanol.

In the tertiary alcohols, here the association is between the hydroxyl group with the carbon atom that is saturated and possessing 3 atoms of carbon associated with it. It has a formula of '-CR2OH.' Example: 3-ethyl-3-pentanol, -tert -butyl alcohol, etc.
