If a small child were to release a balloon into the atmosphere, what would happen to the size of the balloon as it makes it way

higher in the sky?
A) The balloon would become smaller because the pressure of the surrounding air would crush it.
B) The balloon would become smaller because the air molecules inside the balloon would get closer together.
C) The balloon would become larger because the air molecules on the inside of the balloon would expand.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As we move higher in the sky, the atmospheric pressure decreases. The relationship of pressure with volume is given by Boyle's Law.

This law states that the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

where,

P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the gas.

If the pressure of the gas decreases, the volume increases and vice-versa.

As written above, the pressure at higher levels decreases, which results in the increase of volume. Hence, the balloon expands.

therefore, the correct answer is option C.

This is science <br> the question is what caused the jelly population to increase.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

When the walleye pollock population decreased, there were more zooplankton available for the moon jellies to eat. Since the jellies had more energy storage molecules, they were able to reproduce more. This lead to more births than deaths in the moon jelly population, which caused the jelly population to increase.

Can someone please describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD+ levels? I cant fully grasp the concept. Answer
Solnce55 [7]
Fermentation is the process by which a carbohydrate molecule is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. During this process, two molecules of ATP is produced. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate formed from glycolysis will undergo fermentation process. During the process of fermentation, NADH from glycolysis will be converted back to NAD+. This is necessary in order for glycolysis to continue. Thus, fermentation regenerate more NAD+ and only a few molecule of ATP.
