Answer:

40 Cal

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Protein present in the broccoli = 2.6 g

Carbohydrates present in the broccoli = 6 g

Fat present in the broccoli = 0.3 g

Now,

We know,

Energy provided by protein and carbohydrates = 4 Cal / g

and,

Energy provided by Fats = 9 Cal / g

Therefore,

Total nutritional energy content = ∑(Amount × Energy provided)

= ( 2.6  × 4 ) + (6 × 4) + (0.3 × 9)

= 10.4 + 24 + 2.7

= 37.1 Cal    

rounding off the answer to nearest 5 ≈ 40 Cal

  • The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
  • The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
  • A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
  • Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
  • Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
  • The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
  • The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
  • The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
  • The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.

Vladimir79 [104]
I would say the last one. Yes, the coral reef in the south is being threaten but, it’s not the only one. Many other reefs are being threatened. Why? To find the problem to this reef you need to find the problems of other reefs and compare the data. Which ever the most problem cause you get rid of that first.
