Answer:

Mesophyll and bundle sheath cell.

Explanation:

C4 pathway is also known as hatch slack pathway it is a photosynthetic process in some plants. In this pathway carbon is extracting from carbon dioxide to able to use in sugar and other biomolecules. C4 is known as four carbon molecules which is the 1st product of this type of carbon fixation.

In this pathway rubisco enzyme works in the environment where lots of carbon dioxide and very little oxygen present. CO2 is transferred via malate or aspartate from mesophyll cells to bundle sheath cells. In bundle sheath cell CO2 is released by malate decarboxylation.

C4 plants use PEP carboxylase to absorb more amount of CO2 in the mesophyll cells. Phosphophenolpyruvate (PEP) which is 3 carbon molecule binds with CO2 and make oxaloacetic acid, it forms than malate, 4carbon molecule. Malate enters through a plasmodesmata into bundle sheath cell and release the CO2.

Na + Cl2 --> NaCl if you were given 15 grams of sodium (with excess chlorine) and asked to determine the amount of NaCl that
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 38.15 gm of NaCl.

Explanation:

Write the balanced equation for this reaction of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl₂) to produce sodium chloride (NaCl):

2Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl

the mass of Na and the mass of NaCl :

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

In the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

similarly in balanced equation = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.

By converting it to 15 grams of Na.

Therefore,15 g of Na will react to produce = (15 × 117)/46 = 38.15 g of NaCl.

Thus, 38.15 g of Na

3.Why is the surface of the Earth in constant motion?
tekilochka [14]
3. It's because of the heat underneath the crust of the Earth. Because heat rises, the molten rock and such underneath the crust rises to the top and then the movement underneath causes things on top to move. 

4. Plates are the different sections that the lithosphere has been cracked into. These plates once all fit together as a giant plate called Pangaea. 

5.  An earthquake is a sudden, sometimes violent shaking of the ground, as a result of the shifting of tectonic plates, or volcanic eruption. 

6. On the magnitude scale, earthquakes range from 2.5 or less (usually never felt but strong enough to be detected by seismograph) to 8.0 or higher. Causes extreme damage; enough to destroy whole cities at once if close enough to the epicenter. 

7. Depends on what kind you're looking for. I'd look it up for your specific topic.

8. To apply a forces to something, usually resulting in a stretch.

9.  The action of compressing something, to flatten or squeeze by pressure

10. A strain on the layers of something because of pressure, resulting in the shifting of those layers.

11. In areas undergoing extension or stretching. It's when the crust is extended. 

12.  The hanging wall drops relative to the footwall. 

13. This is what happens when the hanging wall <u>rises</u> relative to the footwall. (The opposite of a normal fault)
