Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor? Check all that apply. wind speed air pressure wind direction air
tatuchka [14]

Answer: Wind speed and air temperature.


Wind chill factor is a factor which measures the loss of heat from the body due to the effect of low temperature air to which the body is exposed. This heat loss can be calculated by combination of factors like wind speed and air temperature that can be used to converted to a wind chill equivalent temperature or wind chill temperature. Higher the wind speed more will be the heat loss and lower the air temperature faster will be the cooling of the body. Therefore, wind speed and air temperature are considered for calculating the wind chill factor.

The ATP yield for a molecule depends on where it enters glycolysis or the citric acid cycle. The yield can be compared to the ne
Andru [333]

Answer:

a) The net ATP yield from fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate is 32 ATP

b) The net ATP yield from galactose is 30 ATP

c) The net ATP yield from dihydroxyacetone phosphate is 16 ATP

d) The net ATP yield from pyruvate is 12.5 ATP

e) The net ATP yield from lactate is 14 ATP

f) The net ATP yield from phosphoenolpyruvate is 13.5 ATP

Explanation:

a) In this case, 2 ATP molecules are not used for the phosphorylation of glucose for the production of fructose bisphosphate 1.6, thus, the net ATP yield is 32 ATP.

b) Galactose is converted to glucose-1-phosphate through reactions that lead to phosphorylation. Glucose-1-phosphate is transformed into glucose-6-phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase. Later it is used in glycolysis, thus, the net ATP yield is 30 ATP.

c) The fructose 1,6 bisphosphate is decomposed in glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is isomerized to glyceraldehyde -3-phosphate. ATP performance is (2.5+2.5+11) = 16 ATP

d) Pyruvate is decarboxylated oxidatively to produce acetyl-CoA. ATP yields are:

Glycolysis = 0

Oxidative decarboxylation = 2.5 ATP

TCA cycle = 10 ATP

The net yield is 2.5 + 10 = 12.5 ATP

e) Lactate is oxidized to pyruvate by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase with a reduction of NAD. Pyruvate is brought into the mitochondria, where it is decarboxylated oxidatively to produce acetyl-CoA. If 1.5 ATP is assumed for cytosolic NADH, therefore 1.5 is produced. So, the net yield is: 12.5 + 1.5 = 14

f) Phosphoenolpyruvate is converted to pyruvate by ATP production through phosphorylation. ATP yield is as follows:

Glycolysis = 1

Oxidative decarboxylation = 2.5 ATP

TCA cycle = 10 ATP

The net yield is 1 + 2.5 + 10 = 13.5 ATP

Why does food need to be digested?
Digiron [165]
Food is digested, or broken down, so that the nutrients can be extracted for use by the body as it passes through the digestive system. If food wasn't digested you would not have energy required to run vital chemical reactions and eventually resulting death

In a population of white (W) and black (w) sheep, 22 out of 244 sheep are black. What is the frequency of the dominant allele in
olasank [31]

Answer and Explanation:

To calculate the allele frequency in the population, we divide the number of occurrences of the particular allele by total number of all alleles in the population Allele frequencies can be represented as a decimal, a percentage, or a fraction.

Given the population of white (W) and black (w) sheep, 22 out of 244 sheep are black, the frequency of the dominant allele in the population = 222/244×100=
