Andrews [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Monosaccharides are simple sugars with a basic formula Cⁿ (H2O)ⁿ. They are classified according to the number of carbon atoms they contain: tetroses (4), pentoses (5) and hexoses (6). There are also mosaccharides with 3 carbon atoms, for example the Dihydroxyacetone.

Explanation:

Monosaccharides have to be aldehydes (-CHO) or ketones (-COO) with more than one alcohol function, which will be located in different carbons.

Answer:

Therefore, the molecular structure of a simple monosaccharide can be written as H(CHOH)n(C=O)(CHOH)mH, where n + 1 + m = x; so that its elemental formula is CxH2xOx. By convention, the carbon atoms are numbered from 1 to x along the backbone, starting from the end that is closest to the C=O group.

13. What is the procedure to match a spent bullet<br> to the firearm that shot it?
Delvig [45]

The range of evidence in firearms-related cases can be as small as a piece of a bullet fragment which has rifling marks or as large as hundreds of bullets and cartridge cases and numerous firearms. Even from small samples, information can be developed to indicate the type of firearm used and possibly identify the actual firearm that was used.

Other firearms evidence that could be found at a shooting scene includes shotshell wads and shot pellets; these can indicate the gauge of the shotgun. Wads and pellets can be gathered and preserved in the same manner as bullets and cartridge cases.

By examining wadding materials, the examiner may be able to determine

  • The gauge of the shotgun
  • The manufacturer or marketer
  • A range of possible shot sizes based on impressions in the shotshell wad
  • individual characteristics (in some cases)

What is the Gila Monster’s advantage/disadvantage?
Naily [24]

The Gila monster is one of only a handful of venomous lizards in the world. Others include the similar-looking Mexican beaded lizards, as well as iguanas and monitor lizards. Its venom is a fairly mild neurotoxin. And though a Gila bite is extremely painful, none has resulted in a reported human death.

It has been accused of many things, such as spitting venom, leaping several feet in the air to attack, stinging with its tongue, and killing people with gusts of poisonous breath. ... It may even chew so that the venom goes deeper into the wound. A Gila monster bite is painful to humans, but it rarely causes death.

Powerful muscles control the jaws and give the Gila Monster a bite like a bulldog--it just won't let go. This gives the venom a chance to work, weakening or disabling the lizard's prey.
