Answer: False

Explanation:

A substance that dissociated into ions in the solution is known as electrolyte.This substance has the ability to conduct electricity after being dissociated into ions

Sodium, calcium, chloride and phosphate are example of some electrolytes.

When a person is suffering from diarrhea or water loss in which huge amount of water is lost from the body. In this case the electrolytes from the body is also lost.

Oral solution of electrolytes are available commercially to be given to such patients.

The number of cells in an average-sized adult human is on the order of 10^14 cells. Use this information, and the estimate that

KengaRu [80]

IF:
Number of cells: $C = 10^{14}$
DNA lenght: $D = 2m = 12.42 * 10^{-4} mi$
Distance from Earth to Sun: $ES=93000000 mi = 9.3* 10^{7}mi$

Then:
a) Over how many miles would the total DNA from the average human stretch?
The answer is product of multiplication of the number of cells (C) and the DNA length (D):
Total DNA: $T = C*D$
⇒ $T = 10^{14}*12.42* 10^{-4} mi$
⇒ $T = 12.42* 10^{14-4} mi$
⇒ $T = 12.42* 10^{10} mi$
The total DNA from the average human will stretch $12.42* 10^{10} mi$

b) How many times would the total DNA from the average human stretch from Earth to the Sun and back?
The answer is concluded from the ratio of the total DNA length (T) and the twice (because of stretch to the Sun and back, thus, two directions) of distance from Earth to the Sun (ES) and :
Ratio: $R= \frac{T}{2*ES}$
⇒ $R = \frac{12.42* 10^{10}mi }{2*(9.3* 10^{7}mi)}$
⇒ $R = \frac{12.42* 10^{10}}{18.6*10^{7}}$
⇒ $R = 0.6677* 10^{10-7}$
 ⇒ $R = 0.6677* 10^{3}$
 ⇒ [tex]R = 667.7
Thus, 667,7 times will the total DNA from the average human stretch from Earth to the Sun and back.

Are catabolic pathways endergonic or exergonic reactions? Compare the amount of free energy in the reactants to the amount of fr

atroni [7]

Answer:

Catabolic reactions are exergonic.

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are catabolic, that is, they catalyze molecules, disintegrate them to be able to release energy to the environment that surrounds them and that is how they release or yield to the environment.
