Which statement correctly describes why a compound is a pure substance?

Biology

Answer:

A compound is a pure substance because its molecule cannot be broken down into simpler particles by physical means.

Explanation:

A pure substance is one whose composition does not vary, even if the physical conditions in which it is found change. For example, water has a formula that is H2O and is always the same, which indicates that it is made up of molecules in which there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. If that formula changed, it would be another different substance.

A pure substance cannot be broken down into other simpler substances using physical methods.  Therefore, a pure substance has its own or defined characteristic properties.

Within the pure substances 2 types are distinguished: Elements and compounds.

How do muscle cells access what they need to keep producing energy
Ganezh [65]

Muscle cells access what they need to continue producing energy through chemical energy from ATP to transform it into mechanical energy.  

Muscle cells are elongated cells whose length can reach several centimeters.  

The muscle uses ATP (energy) to carry out conformational changes in its molecular structure => variation in the length of the sarcomere.  

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the basic source of energy for muscle contraction.  

Each link stores 7300 calories of energy per mole of ATP under normal conditions and when a phosphate radical is separated from the molecule, these calories are available providing the energy necessary for muscle contraction.  

The muscle cell has three mechanisms to resynthesize ATP:  

  • ATP synthesis through phosphocreatine.  

  • Anaerobic glycolysis process with the transformation of muscle glycogen into lactate.  

  • From oxidative phosphorylation.  

ATP synthesis through phosphocreatine consists of the transfer of energy from phosphocreatine to ADP so that it can reincorporate a phosphate group to its molecule and transform it into ATP.

So the energy that has been released in the hydrolysis of PCr is directly used to resynthesize ATP from ADP.  

Therefore, we can conclude that muscle cells access what they need to continue producing energy through the chemical energy of ATP to transform it into mechanical energy.

Explain a higher pitched sound in terms of a wave length
Sladkaya [172]
Are you sure this isn't a physics question?
Higher pitched sounds have waves of a higher frequency and they have shorter wavelengths.
Hope that helps.
