Answer: 1.) oxaloacetate can be modified to a form that can be transported out of the matrix through TRANSAMINATION.

2.) The compound that is transported across the inner membrane in exchange for malate is α‑KETOGLUTARATE.

Explanation:

The malate- aspartate shuttle is a system that allows electrons to move across membrane between the cytosol and mitochondrial matrix. The electrons generated during glycolysis such as NADH cannot cross the inner mitochondrial membrane to be used in the electron transport chain (respiratory chain). Therefore through reduction- oxidation reactions, the malate- aspartate shuttle regenerates NADH inside the mitochondrial matrix which can be used to pass electrons to the electron transport chain so that ATP can be synthesized.

Number of grams of hydrogen than can be prepared from 6.80g of aluminum​
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

0.7561 g.

Explanation:

  • The hydrogen than can be prepared from Al according to the balanced equation:

<em>2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂,</em>

It is clear that 2.0 moles of Al react with 6.0 mole of HCl to produce 2.0 moles of AlCl₃ and 3.0 mole of H₂.

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of (6.8 g) of Al:

no. of moles of Al = mass/atomic mass = (6.8 g)/(26.98 g/mol) = 0.252 mol.

<em>Using cross multiplication:</em>

2.0 mol of Al produce → 3.0 mol of H₂, from stichiometry.

0.252 mol of Al need to react → ??? mol of H₂.

∴ the no. of moles of H₂ that can be prepared from 6.80 g of aluminum = (3.0 mol)(0.252 mol)/(2.0 mol) = 0.3781 mol.

  • Now, we can get the mass of H₂ that can be prepared from 6.80 g of aluminum:

mass of H₂ = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (0.3781 mol)(2.0 g/mol) = 0.7561 g.

How plants adapt to temperature variation
natita [175]
Answer: One major strategy by which plants adapt to temperature change is to decrease the degree of unsaturation of membrane lipids under high temperature and increase it under low temperature. ... This pattern of changes in membrane lipids was distinct from that occurring during slow alterations in temperature.

Cold packs are used to treat minor injuries. Some cold packs contain NH4NO3(s) and a small packet of water at room temperature b
Anastasy [175]
These types of reactions are called endothermic reactions. This is when the system absorbs the heat from the surrounding. In this case, the system is the chemical reaction and the environment is the direct vicinity of the chemical reaction. You notice that the pack becomes cold because heat from the surrounding is being absorb. 

The bonds involved in this substance includes ionic bonding and polar covalent.
