Biology

Answer: ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is considered as the energy currency of the cell. This means that it is used as one of the most important energy source for driving metabolic functions (like muscle contraction) within the cell.

ATP stores large amount of energy within its phosphoanhydride bond (present between two phosphate). Whenever a cell requires energy, ATP undergoes hydrolysis and gets converted into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate and the large amount of stored energy is released that is further utilized by the cell for driving its functions.

Are the elements anions or cation and what's there new name if they're anions
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Cations are ions that are positively charged. They form when they lose an electron because they would have more protons than electrons. In your problem you have for example potassium (number three).

Iodine is a cation because it lost one electron. The ion symbol then would be:

I ⁺

So this is your clue. If it has a positive or a plus sign on top, that would make it a cation. Another clue would be if it LOST an electron, then it is a cation.

An anion, on the other hand, is negatively charged, because they gain electrons, making the electrons more than the protons. In your problem, you have Iodine as an example (number one).

Iodine gained one electron and the ion symbol would be:

I⁻

So again that is your clue for anions, they have a negative or a minus sign on top of the symbol. If they GAINED an electron, that would make them an anion.

Naming monoatomic anions is easy. They are named with the suffix -ide at the end. (Cations retain their name). For example Sulfur (number two).

Sulfur is an anion that gained two electrons with an ion symbol of:

S²⁻

So from the name <u>Sulfur</u><u> </u>the name will change into "Sulfide" and its name will now be <u>Sulfide ion. </u>

Cross a Heterozygous Type A with a Heterozygous Type B? What genetic terms best describes the genotypes of the offspring?
ahrayia [7]
Draw a box. On the vertical side of the box write A and O

On the horizontal side write B and O

Take each letter and combine it with the two letters in the other plane and write them in the box.

AB AO OB OO and BA BO OA OO

Knowing that the A and B genes are dominant … you get the following children probabilities:

AO OA are A’s

OB BO are B’s

AB BA are AB’s

OO and OO are O’s

THE TWO PARENTS CAN PRODUCE all the blood types of the ABO SYSTEM.
