Prions are proteins with the ability to generate more prions by causing other proteins to misfold into a similar shape. Since pr

ions are proteins, they have a genetic sequence associated with them and their ability to create more prions allows them to reproduce. Why aren’t prions considered alive?

They're not made up of cells, and they don't have any kind of metabolism. Because they lack genetic material and a cellular structure, prions are less often grouped in with living things than viruses. ... What is the case for viruses being alive?

velikii [3]
To solve this question you need to calculate the number of the gas molecule. The calculation would be:
PV=nRT
n=PV/RT
n= 1 atm * 40 L/ (0.082 L atm mol-1K-<span>1 * 298.15K)
</span>n= 1.636 moles

The volume at bottom of the lake would be:
PV=nRT
V= nRT/P
V= (1.636 mol * 277.15K* 0.082 L atm mol-1K-1 )/ 11 atm= <span>3.38 L</span>

I need help:<br>Ionic Compounds are formed from atoms that have opposite charges. True Or False?
liq [111]

It is <u>true</u> that ionic compounds are formed from atoms that have opposite charges.

<h3>What are ionic compounds?</h3>

Ionic compounds are chemical compounds made up of ions held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding.

The ionic compound formed is neutrally charged but consists of positively charged ions called cations and negatively charged ions called anions.

For example, the sodium ions attract chloride ions and the chloride ion attracts sodium ions. The result is the formation of an ionic compound with cation Na+ and anion Cl– ions.

Therefore, it is true that an ionic compound is made up of positive and negative ions.
