Describe three examples of materials that have resulted from a lack of decomposer activity

Biology

erastova [34]3 years ago

The decomposers are of two kinds, aerobic decomposers and anaerobic decomposers. The aerobic decomposers need the oxygen from the air to break down the dead and decaying matter into simple salts, sugars and hydrocarbon gases. The anaerobic decomposers do not require oxygen for the break down of dead and decaying matter. They break down the matter into various forms of hydrocarbons, sulphides and nitrogenous compounds.

When a dead and decaying matter gets buried deep within the Earth where there is an absence of the decomposers, it takes the form of crude oil, coal, peat, asphalt, and natural gas. The matter gets compressed by the weight of the rocks above and changes its form.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

The minimum mass of dissolved cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect is 0.43 milligrams.

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

<em>GenAlex Medical, a leading manufacturer of medical laboratory equipment, is designing a new automated system that can detect borderline high levels of dissolved cholesterol (170, to 200. mg/dL), using a blood sample that is as small as 250 μL Calculate the minimum mass in milligrams of cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

Explanation:

Range of the equipment to detect cholesterol in blood = 170.0  to 200.0 mg/dL

Minimum amount of cholesterol that can be detected by instrument = 170 mg/dL

Volume of blood sample = 250 <em>μ</em>L= 0.0025 dL (1 dL = 100000 <em>μL)</em>

Amount of dissolved cholesterol in 250 <em>μL</em> sample of blood =

170 mg/dL * 0.0025 dL =  0.425 mg

The minimum mass of cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect is 0.43 milligrams.
