<span>arteries are larger, more muscular and more elastic than veins; they carry blood that is under pressure from having been pumped out of the heart; veins are under much less pressure, so they are not as strong</span>

Arteries are tube shaped vessels that carry blood in the body. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body.
Veins carry oxygen-poor blood back from the body to the heart.

How is energy involved in determining if a reaction is classified as endothermic or exothermic
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

In a nutshell:

  • Chemical reactions love stability.
  • Usually if heat is given off, the chemicals are happier as they are more stable.
  • This should happen naturally, like a ball rolling down a hill.
  • But if you <em>force </em>chemicals to do things that make them more <em>unstable, </em>you're going to have to put energy in.
  • Like forcing a ball up a hill, it isn't naturally going to roll up without you putting in energy.
  • "exo-" means "away from" and "endo-" means "within". Think about this in terms of heat, or energy.
  • heat released -> exothermic reaction (energy escapes)
  • heat put in -> endothermic reaction (energy is put within)

Also the word "enthalpy" and ΔH is used a lot to relate to energy.

A negative ΔH means heat loss and a positive ΔH means heat put in as well.

Hope this helps ;)

liubo4ka [24]
The answer is A. 

Glucose in the sealed tube will be used up by the obligate anaerobe bacterium. This is because it is the only environment that satisfies the condition of having no air or oxygen for the organism to survive. The unsealed tube will obviously have air entering and exiting inside and therefore will not be a suitable environment for the organism. The control tube will have no change in color since it is uninoculated or in other words, no organism was put inside of it.
