HELP PLEASE WILL GIVE  BRAINLIEST , the dark portion of the soil created by the decay of organic matters? is called?

Chemistry

Answer is: humus.

Humus is the dark organic matter that forms in soil when dead plant and animal matter decays.

Microorganisms decompose the soil organic matter into inorganic minerals that the roots can absorb.

Humus can hold a lot of moisture (approximately 80–90% of its weight) and its dark color helps to warm cold soils.

The answer is; Humus  

Humus is found in the topmost layer of the soil where there is decomposing organic matter. This layer of soil has a characteristic color of dark brown to black. This layer of soil also teems with microbial activity and organisms such as earthworms, fungi, and arthropods which  are  significant in the decomposition of the dead organic matter.

In an isolated system, mass can neither be<br> created or destroyed.<br> ube<br> FALSE<br> TRUE
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

Hope it helps

Hoochie [10]

The compound : C₄₀H₄₄N₄O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components

The principle of determining empirical formula

• Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.  

• Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass

The mol ratio of composition : C : H : N : O

\tt \dfrac{80.66}{12}\div \dfrac{7.39}{1}\div \dfrac{9.39}{14}\div \dfrac{2.68}{16}\\\\6.722\div 7.39\div 0.671\div 0.1675\rightarrow divide~by~smallest(0.1675)\\\\40\div 44\div 4\div 1

Which of the following is/are correct regarding the pentose phosphate pathway? I. NADH is generated by the oxidation of glucose-
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1 NADH is generated by the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate.

Explanation:

Pentose phosphate pathway deals with the utilization of glucose-6-phosphate by oxidation process to form 6-phosphogluconolactone by the catalytic activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenese.

   This enzyme need NAD+ as co enzyme which get reduced to generate NADH.

liberstina [14]

Answer: Molar concentration of the tree sap have to be 0.783 M

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=iCRT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure of the solution = 19.6 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the solution = 32^oC=[273+32]=305K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

19.6atm=1\times C\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 305K

C=0.783M

Thus the molar concentration of the tree sap have to be 0.783 M to achieve this pressure on a day when the temperature is 32°C
