Acompound has the empirical formula CH.
ozzi
The empirical formula is the simplest whole number ration that defines constituent atoms in a species. The molecular formula is always a multiple of the empirical formula.

Molecule Formula = 78.0 • g • mol ^ -1 = n(12.011 + 1.00794) • g • mol ^ -1

78
N = ——————————- = 6
12.011 + 1.00794

Molecular Formula = C6H6

Which of the following is not true concerning the flow of energy through an ecosystem? a. Most solar energy is used in photosynt
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer;

D. Most of the energy from photosynthesis flows out as heat

Explanation;

Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain in a given ecosystem.

Producers such as green plants in a ecosystem convert energy from the the sun into carbon bonds, such as those found in the sugar glucose through the process of photosynthesis.

The amount of chemical energy storied as nutrients in the bodies and wastes of organisms flows through ecosystems from one trophic level to the next and through this flow energy also is lost as heat. And the chemical energy available to the succeeding feeding level decreases.

24. Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways

  • <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
  • <em>Positive feedbacks</em>

Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat

Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.
