Answer: Heat dissipation mechanism

Explanation: Heat dissipation mechanism is a thermoregulatory response in humans whereby the hypothalamus of the brain initiates certain processes to reduce the high body temperature. Eg, sweating is initiated which helps cool down the body temperature, also superficial arteries are dilated, thereby leading to flushing and decreasing heatloss into the air. And metabolic heat production is also reduced.

A cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of a corn plant. Based on this observation

Alik [6]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A). synthesizes more sugar

B). has a higher chromosome count

C). produces fewer proteins

D). uses less carbon dioxide

The answer is A

Explanation:

The chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of photosynthetic organisms. It is the site where photosynthesis, which is the production of food (sugars) from sunlight energy, occurs.

According to this question, a cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of the same corn plant. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that the LEAF CELLS WILL SYNTHESIZE MORE SUGARS THAN THE STEM CELL because the more the chloroplast, the higher the photosynthetic rate and subsequently the higher the amount of sugar produced.

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g

Lerok [7]

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

The reaction for the decomposition of water has been:

$\rm 2\;H_2O\;\rightarrow\;H_2\;+\;O_2$

From the balanced equation, 2 moles of water decomposes to form 1 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.

The mass of oxygen produced has been 50 g. The moles of oxygen has been given by:

$\rm Moles=\dfrac{mass}{molar\;mass}$

The moles of oxygen has been:

$\rm Moles_O_2=\dfrac{50}{32}\;mol\\Moles_O_2=1.5625\;mol$

The moles of oxygen produced has been 1.5625 mol.

The moles of hydrogen decomposed has been given from the balanced chemical equation as:

$\rm 1 \;mole\;O_2=2\;mole\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=1.5625\;\times\;2\;mol\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=3.125\;mol\;H_2O$

The moles of hydrogen decomposes has been 3.125 mol.

The mass of hydrogen decomposed has been given by:

$\rm Mass=moles\;times\;molar\;mass\\Mass_{H_2O}=3.125\;\times\;18.01\;g\\Mass_{H_2O}=56.28\;g$

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction by completing the reaction below. Add the missing products and coefficients

Pie

To balance a chemical equation you must pay attention that the algebraic equation has the same number of element atoms in reactant and the product.

A chemical equation is a term to refer to the symbolic description of a chemical reaction, that is, the written representation of symbols. For example:

2H₂ + O₂ ---> 2H₂O

The balance of an equation can be related to the law of conservation of matter, that is, the number of atoms of each element in the reactants is in the result.

Note: This question is incomplete, because the information some information is missing.

According to the kinetic molecular theory, which statement describes the particles of an ideal gas? -1)The gas particles are arr

avanturin [10]

Answer: option # 4, the collisions of the gas particles may result in the transfer of energy.

Explanation:

The kinetic molecular theory (KMT) explains the behavior and properties of gases in terms of the energy, the size, and the motion of the gas particles.

In terms of size, according to the KMT the gases are formed by small particles separated from each other in a vacuum. The volume of the particles is negligible and it is considered that they do not occupy any space.

Since the particles are separated they do not exert either attraction or repulsion to each other.

Regarding the motion, the particles are in constant random motion. They move in straight lines until collide with other particles or with the walls of the veseel. The collisions are elastic (the total kinetic energy is conserved). The kinetic energy may be trasferred between the particles, but the total kinetic energy does not change.

The kinetic energy and the temperature are related: the temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of gas. At a given temperature all the gases have the same average kinetic energy.

Now, check every choice:

1)The gas particles are arranged in a regular pattern:

False. The particles occupy all the volumen and are in random motion.

2) The force of attraction between the gas particles are strong:

False. The particles are separated and they do not exert any force on each other.

3) The gas particles are hard spheres in continuous circular motion.

False. The particles travel in straight until they collide.

4) The collisions of the gas particles may result in the transfer of energy.

True. When particles collide they may transfer kinetic energy but the total kinetic energy is conserved.
