Answer:
Different amounts of water filling a water balloon
Explanation:
Turgor pressure is the force exerted by stored water against a cell wall. In this instance the water is shaping the water balloon and pushing against the rubber which is basically the cell wall of the balloon.
Answer:
carbons 3 and 4
Explanation:
Alcoholic fermentation is an anaerobic (non-oxygen-requiring) pathway capable of converting one mole of glucose (C6H12O6) into two moles of ethanol (C2H5OH) and two moles of carbon dioxide (CO2), producing during this process two moles of ATP. The overall chemical reaction is as follow: C6H12O6 (glucose) >> 2 C2H5OH (ethanol) + 2 CO2. During this process (fermentation), energy is obtained from the glycolysis process by which each glucose molecule is broken down into two pyruvate molecules (2 CH3COCOO−). Pyruvic acid is an organic acid that ionizes to produce a hydrogen ion and a molecule of pyruvate. Subsequently, this pyruvate is then converted into ethanol and CO2, generating NAD+, i.e., the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or NAD, which is required for glycolysis (and therefore to produce ATP). Moreover, dismutation refers to the redox reaction by which one compound with an intermediate oxidation state converts into two compounds. In consequence, the CO2 generated during fermentation arises from the dismutation of pyruvic acid. During this process, the major source of CO2 is carbon 3 (C3) and carbon 4 (C4) of the glucose as a result of the dismutation of pyruvate, and thereby these positions in the glucose molecule would the C14 label need to be incorporated.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is C.</em>
Explanation:
The structure mentioned in the question is cell membrane. The cell membrane can be described as a semi-permeable membrane which regulates the export and import of particles across the cell membrane. Some molecules move inside the cell along the concentration gradient by passive transport while other molecules move inside through active transport i.e against the concentration gradient.
The cell membrane is made up of phosphate head and fatty acid tails.
Answer and Explanation:
To test the presence of glucose, we can perform <u>Benedict's test.</u> This test detects the presence of reducing sugars (e.g. glucose) by adding <u>Benedict's reagent.</u> This reagent contains sodium carbonate, sodium citrate and copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate. When the mixture is heated, reduce cupric compounds (Cu2+) are formed which results in the change in color from clear blue to brick-red, yellow or green.
To test the presence of glucose in the food sample, we will dissolve a small volume of food sample in water and put it in the test tubes, in triplicates. Then we will add 3 mL of Benedict's reagent. Also, we will run positive and negative controls. For positive controls, we will add glucose directly and for negative, we will not add any glucose or other reducing sugars (also in triplicates each). Then we will heat the test tubes in water water for 5-10 minutes. In the positive control, the color would change to green, yellow or brick red; but in negative control, it will stay blue (see figure attached for explanation). For the food sample, if the glucose or reducing sugars would be present, the color will change. In case of low sugar, it will be green, but increasing sugar content would change the color to yellow/orange and red. Because the experiment will be conducted in triplicates, we would be also able to verify if the results were consistent and there was no human or technical error.
