By which process are fossil fuels formed?

Biology
1 answer:
Delvig [45]3 years ago
4 0
There are three major forms of fossil fuels and these are coal, oil and natural gas. All three were formed many millions of years ago before the time of dinosaurs. Plants and trees died and sank to the bottom of swamps which filled the land. The dead matter formed layers of a spongy material called peat. Over time the peat was covered by sand, clay and other minerals which turned into sedimentary rock. As the layers of rock piled up, their weight squeezed the peat until water came out of it and it eventually turned into coal, oil and natural gas.

Why is e = hv important in pv cell considerations?
Zanzabum
E=hv is an equation important when dealing with light. E refers to the energy of a photon; h is Planck's constant and v is the wavelength. According to this equation, light particles called photons travels in packets of energy. This is important in pv cells because this is the technology used to harness solar energy which is converted to electricity. The amount of energy should be estimated to know the appropriate material of construction of the pv cell to achieve optimum conditions. In this way, the pv cell could maximize the sun's energy.

Define los tipos de proteínas que conforman la membrana
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Membrane proteins can be classified into two broad categories—integral (intrinsic) and peripheral (extrinsic)—based on the nature of the membrane-protein interactions (see Figure 3-32). Most biomembranes contain both types of membrane proteins.

Translate:

Las proteínas de membrana se pueden clasificar en dos categorías amplias: integrales (intrínsecas) y periféricas (extrínsecas), según la naturaleza de las interacciones membrana-proteína (véase la figura 3-32). La mayoría de las biomembranas contienen ambos tipos de proteínas de membrana.

(oxygen, electron transport chain, chemiosmosis, NADPH)
Vaselesa [24]

Hai there :3 I'm planning to study chemical engineering.

Question related to Biochemistry (Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration)

1. Chemiosmosis.  In the process of chemiosmosis, specific enzymes (such as ATP synthase) create ATP. Hydrogen ions go from a higher proton concentration to a lower one, which is why it's called chemio"osmosis"

2. Electron Transport Chain (ETC). The name says it all. Simply explained, electrons are transported and transferred in the mitochondrial membrane.

3. Oxygen. O2, the diatomic molecule, is essential in respiration. In the final stage of respiration, at the near end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts protons to become water. Cells use O2 during oxidative phosphorylation.

4. NADPH. I remember learning what this acronym means by heart. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen. NADPH is essential in photosynthesis as a typical coenzyme in the reduction of chemical reactions.
