Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Phosphorylation can be simply defined as the addition of a phosphate group to an organic and inorganic molecule. This process helps in regulating the processes that occur in the cells. It leads to the growth and development of cells and this process is efficiently carried out with the help of enzymes like kinase. It also plays an important role in transferring the signals within the cells, synthesis, and functioning of proteins within the cells, and storing as well as releasing of energy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

What mass of oxygen would form from 2.30 moles of water?
Serggg [28]

Answer : The mass of oxygen will be, 36.8 grams

Solution : Given,

Moles of water = 2.30 moles

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of oxygen.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

2H_2O\rightarrow 2H_2+O_2

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

2 moles of water decomposes to give 1 mole of O_2

2.30 moles of water decomposes to give \frac{2.3}{2}=1.15 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of oxygen.

\text{Mass of }O_2=\text{Moles of }O_2\times \text{Molar mass of }O_2

\text{Mass of }O_2=(1.15moles)\times (32g/mole)=36.8g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen will be, 36.8 grams

Answer:

The correct option is C. The level of organization  best represented by the corn plant is : organism, the level of organization directly above organ system  organ system

Explanation:

An organism can be described as a living thing made up of organ systems.

Plants are organisms that have levels of organizations similar to animals. Cells in plants make up tissues. There are mainly two types of tissues in plants: the meristematic tissue and non-meristematic tissue.

Just like animals, plants have organ systems. There are two kinds of organ systems mainly in plants: the shoot system and the root system. Hence, option C is the correct option.

Use the periodic table to determine the number of valence electrons in each of the following elements.
pogonyaev
Answer:
Na= 1, Ar= 8, V= 5, F= 7


Explanation:
You can determine the number of valence electrons in an element by looking the the group/column # on the periodic table. Elements in the same family/ group are organized by columns (vertical). Elements in the same column have the same number of valence electrons (electrons of the outermost shell) and consequently similar properties.
Simply put, GROUP #= # VALENCE E-

There are exceptions to this, especially when determining the amount of valence electrons in elements that are in a compound or in transition metal elements. For transition metals (that have different oxidation states- different # of valence electrons for the same element) I’d just look it up
