LINDA-ALLEN | CERTIFIED EDUCATOR

Cornelius Agrippa (1486-1535) was a German mystic who practiced a "science" that combined alchemy, magic, mysticism, and astrology. Two of his books are Three Books of Occult Philosophy and On Calling Spirits. Through the writing of Agrippa, Frankenstein becomes very interested in alchemy, which is a pseudoscience whose main object is to find a way of turning base metals into gold. You could say that Frankenstein adapted the thinking of the alchemists and instead of transforming other metals into gold attempted to transform a corpse into a living being.

An interesting story about Agrippa concerns sightings of him after his death:

There were rumors that Agrippa had summoned demons on his death bed, and that a black dog roamed the countryside as his familiar. The black dog appears in tales as Faustus, Mephistopheles, and even as a grim in the Harry Potter series.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

All the cells in a living organism undergo cellular respiration to extract the chemical energy from food molecules and convert it into  usable energy form of ATP.

The food molecules having chemical energy are oxidized to produce energy that can be used for all  cellular metabolism processes and other energetic reactions required for life

Later on this ATP's energy is used for building new molecules and transporting materials.

Hence, given statement is true

Which two types of particles are present in equal numbers in an atom, but not in an ion
arlik [135]

The correct answer is protons and electrons.

Atoms are made of particles called protons (p+), neutrons (n0), and electrons (e-).

Protons and neutrons are located in the center of the atom, making up the nucleus and electrons surround the nucleus.

The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite and their number in the atom is the same when we talk about neutral atoms. Ions are charged atoms, so the number of their electrons and protons are different (for example, positive ions have more protons).
