<u>ANSWER:</u>

An atom is said to be positively charged when there are more number of protons than electrons.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Atoms consist of electrons, protons and neutron. Protons are said to be positively charged particles and electrons are found to be negatively charged.

The neutrons are neutral as it has no charge. So, when the number of protons in an atom is more than the number of electrons, the atom has more positive charge than negative charge and so is said to be positively charged.

If flavoprotein performs the alternate pathway of transferring an electron directly to oxygen rather than to the next component

Alona [7]

If flavoprotein performs the alternate pathway of transferring an electron directly to oxygen rather than to the next component of the ETC, TWO toxic molecules are produced. These cellular toxic molecules are HYDROGEN PEROXIDE (H2O2) AND SUPEROXIDE RADICALS (O2-). These toxins are reactive oxygen species (ROS) that produce free radicals.

This alternate pathway also results in damaging of the cells and early aging of the cells. There are enzymes such as catalase and superoxide dismutase that catalyse the reaction for the degradation of these toxins.

What energy systems does your body use to support the 100s trial in the experiment? refer back to information presented in activ

BartSMP [9]

I believe at the beginning, the body used up ATP energy in the muscles to support the enduring muscle contraction activities. Once the ATP was used up, the body had to switch to lactic acid fermentation in order to get energy needed support a continued muscle contraction. Muscles need energy to produce contractions, this energy is derived from adenosine triphosphate present in muscles. Muscles tend to contain only limited amount of ATP, therefore when depleted ATP needs to be resynthesized from other sources.

Write a paragraph discussing the relationship between the organizational levels of the environment; biosphere, biome, community,

skad [1K]

The environment is studied at different levels & stages.
Biosphere: The biosphere is the zone in which life exists. It consists of the atmosphere& the hydrosphere alongwith the earth surface where living beings live.

The biome is a community of plants and animals (flaura & fauna).
Community: A community is a group of people/living beings who live in a specific location. It is used to describe two or more populations of different species that exist at same place.
Population: A population is the multiple individuals or living organisms of a single species that live in an area.
The populations are formed by lalrge number of groups of organisms.
Group of populations form communities. The group of all communities form a biome, which exist in the biosphere.

Males have only one copy of each type of sex chromosome; therefore, all sex-linked genes are expressed, even recessive alleles.

fgiga [73]

Answer:I believe it would be A, since that males have two sex-linked genes(which also causes a baby to be either male or female) they have a higher chance of getting a genetic disorder.

Explanation: the male and females sex organs are different
