Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is B)10%. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

We use the following equivalence, remembering that Adenina pairs with Timina and Guanina with Cytosine:

A=T   ; C=G   A+G=T+C

If A= 40% ----> T=40%

A+G=T+C

40%+G= 40% +C   ---->  40+10=50

G=C=10%

Cyanobacteria can cluster together into colonies called _______, with some discovered in Western Australia that are 3.5 billion
Anna [14]

Answer:

1.) stromatolites

2.) photosynthesis

3.) Ordovician

4.) Cambrian

5.) oxygen

6.) As Earth cooled, carbon dioxide dissolved in the early ocean. Cyanobacteria consumed carbon dioxide and converted it to oxygen. Methane was removed from the atmosphere as oxygen was produced, eventually leading to the Cambrian Explosion.

7.) Metabolic processes that use oxygen produce more energy than anaerobic metabolism. Simple diffusion of oxygen would limit the size of a multicellular eukaryote, but animals evolved ways to transport oxygen to their tissues, which permitted an increase in size.

Human cells obtain energy from a reaction called cellular respiration. balance the skeletal equation for cellular respiration. c
Softa [21]
<span>C6H12O6 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O + energy, otherwise expressed as glucose plus oxygen converted into carbon dioxide plus water plus energy. It includes glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation to properly balance. The finished equation should look like this: C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy</span>

Explain how the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.

This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.
