Where does the glucose that is released into the blood ultimately end up (2 places)?

1 answer:

8 0

The glucose in the body could end up in two forms, either it will be broken down in order to produce ATP molecules and the other form is to be stored in two forms which is either glycogen or fat. If it formed into glycogen, it will be useful in the muscle cells and liver for it will serve as an energy store. If it is formed into fat, it will store a long term energy. So the glucose will either end up as a glycogen or fat in the body of a person who has acquired or built glucose in the body.

Joyce is planting tulips in her garden, and she has 5 red bulbs and 5 white bulbs to plant in one row. What is the probability t

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{126}$ or 0.0079.

Explanation:

Joyce is planting tulips in her garden.

Number of red (R) bulbs = 5

Number of white (W) bulbs = 5

Total number of ways to plant 10 bulbs in one row is

$\text{Total ways}=\frac{10!}{5!5!}$

$\text{Total ways}=\frac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6\times 5!}{5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 5!}$

Cancel out common factors.

$\text{Total ways}=252$

It is given that she randomly plants the bulbs so that all 5 red bulbs are next to each other and all 5 white bulbs are next to each other.

Required outcomes are

RRRRRWWWWW and WWWWWRRRRR

$\text{Required outcomes}=2$

Formula for probability:

$Probability=\frac{\text{Required outcomes}}{\text{Total ways}}$

$Probability=\frac{2}{252}$

$Probability=\frac{1}{126}$

$Probability\approx 0.0079$

Therefore the required probability is $\frac{1}{126}$ or 0.0079.

What happens to the phosphates when plants and animals die?

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

When plants and animals die, organic molecules also undergoes decomposition and this causes the incorporated phosphates to go back to the soil or bodies of water.

Explanation:

Phosphates are naturally related to "phosphorus." They play a vital role in the life of animals and plants. Phosphorus can be commonly be found on the earth's land and water (although the land has a smaller amount of it). Plants naturally absorb phosphate from where they're growing. Animals take up phosphates by eating plants. The phosphate that plants get from the soil are considered inorganic. They only become organic when it is incorporated into the plants DNA (since this is an organic molecule).

So, this means that if there's a sufficient amount of phosphate, there will be more plants on earth as it is also important in the process of acquiring nutrients.

When animals and plants die, all of the organic molecules such as phosphate also breaks down and thus, it falls back to the soil or bodies of water. Then, they are ready to enter another Phosphorus cycle.

Could producers survive without consumers? explain why or why not

arlik [135]

Producers could not survive without consumers. Produces rely on consumers to purchase their product, if no one buy their product, then the producer has no money to even produce anything. This like a car, the car is the producer, and the gas is the consumer, the car will not work unless there is gas. So a producer will not survive without the consumer.
