What causes fatty acids to be saturated and unsaturated?

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

The carbon atoms in saturated fatty acids are linked entirely by single C-C bonds; unsaturated fatty acids contain one or more double bonds. Double bonds cause molecules to bend, and they can pack less tightly.

Explain how the processes of sea-floor spreading and magnetic reversal produce bands of oceanic crust that have different magnet
WARRIOR [948]

Explanation:

As the two plates move away from each other in a divergent boundary, the magma from the mantle beneath rises to replace the void created. The magma then cools into a new crust. Before the magma cools, the iron minerals align themselves with the magnetic fields of the earth due to their ferromagnetic properties. These cause the rocks after they are cooled to seem to have bands.

Due to magnetic reversals of the earth's magnetic fields (i.e change in magnetic north and south poles) over several hundred thousand years, these bands will orient differently depending on the then earth magnetic polarity when the magma was cooling.

Candace is wanting to be sure that she is doing what she can to prevent the spread of disease. Which of the following should she
Temka [501]

Take medicine to destroy the germs.

Avoid contact with other people's bodily fluids.

Eat healthful foods such as fruits and vegetables.

Explanation:

For the spread of disease, there is usually a host who bears the infectious agent, the agent exits through a port of exit from the host, is carried by a mode of transmission, then enters a susceptible second host through a port of entry. To stop transmission, stopping the infectious agent can include;

  1. Stopping the agent from leaving the host through port of exit – e.g quarantine the patient
  2. Curtailing the modes of transmission – e.g killing disease vectors
  3. Protecting the ports of entry in the susceptible second potential host – e.g by improving immunity

Blood enters which of these vessels during ventricular systole?
Ganezh [65]
Ventricular systole is when the ventricles of the heart as the result of electrical activity which helps to pump blood. During ventricular systole oxygenated blood is pumped from the left ventricle through the aortic valve and aorta. Simultaneously deoxygenated blood is pumped from the right ventricle through the pulmonic valve and pulmonary artery to the lungs. Using this explanation blood enters  the aorta and pulmonary artery during ventricular systole. <span />
