Three examples why cell division is important

Chemistry
1 answer:
kifflom [539]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Cell division is important for growth,maintenance of proper chromosome number,wound healing

Explanation:

1 Cell division results in the formation of new cells which further undergo division to form new cells and so forth.Thus many cells are formed which are organized in tissues.Tissues then builds up organs and a number of organs builds up total body.

2 Cell division helps to maintain its chromosome number within the newly formed daughter cells.

3 Division of cells result in the formation of new cells in the site of wound and this accumalation of new cells in the wound region replace damaged and dead cells thus ultimately results in wound healing.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

The electrons are supplied by the species getting oxidized. They move from anode to the cathode in the external circuit. The external battery supplies the electrons. They enter through the cathode and come out through the anode

3Fe+4H2O(yields) Fe3O4+4H2. What is the mole ratio of Fe3O4 to Fe?
WINSTONCH [101]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mole ratio is defined as the ratio between the stoichiometric coefficients of the molecules present in the chemical reaction.

For the given balanced chemical equation:

3Fe+4H_2O\rightarrow Fe_3O_4+4H_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of iron metal reacts with 4 moles of water to produce 1 mole of iron oxide and 4 moles of hydrogen gas.

The mole ratio of Fe_3O_4:Fe=1:3

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

Based on the activity series, which metals could X represent in the reaction below? (Note: The equation is not balanced.)
Nikitich [7]
Answer is: A) Sr (strontium).
The reactivity series<span> is a series of metals from highest to lowest reactivity.</span><span> Metal higher in the reactivity series will displace another.
</span>Strontium is only higher in this group from magnesium. Strontium is stronger reducing agent than magnesium, gives electrons easier.

Need some help, please. Explain why anions are always larger than the atoms from which they are derived, while cations are alway
ANTONII [103]

The question requires us to explain the differences in radii of neutral atoms, cations and anions.

To answer this question, we need to keep in mind that a neutral atom presents the same number of protons (positive particles) and electrons (negative particles). Another important information is that the protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are around the nucleus. Also, there is an electrostatic force between protons and electrons, which means that they the protons tend to attract the electrons to the nucleus.

While a neutral atom presents the same number of protons and electrons, a cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has lost one or more electrons. In a cation, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore: now, there is more positive than negative charge (more protons than electrons), and the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is increased. As a result, the electrons stay closer to the nucleus and the radius of a cation is smaller than the neutral atom from which it was derived.

On the other side, anions present negative charge, which means they have received electrons. Similarly to cations, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore, but in this case, there are more electrons than protons. In an anion, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. As a result, the electrons are "more free" to move and, as they are not so attracted to the nucleus, they tend to stay farther from the positive nucleus compared to the neutral atom - because of this, the radius of an anion is larger than the neutral atom from which it was derived.
