True. because a solute is a substance that is dissolved in another substance and nacl is the solution here.

Answer:

The right answer to this question is: True

Explanation:

Water is a substance known for the whole world as the universal solvent, and that can mean lots of different things, but the main one is that water, as a solvent, will dissolve most of the other substances when they're poured with it. Besides that, the solvent will almost always be in a higher quantity that the solute, in this case, there are only 0,5g of NaCl and 100g of H2O, so by that, we can be sure that the water is the solvent, and the NaCl is the solute.

Comment on why do you think cells prefer to use carbohydrates as a source of energy before they use fats and proteins.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

This can be explained  based on structure, and on metabolisms of  carbohydrate.

Explanation:

Carbohydrate has a relatively simple structural composition than the  either protein or fatty acids. The C, H and Oxygen molecules are of  relatively fewer in number and few  chains than fats and protein.Thus  cells will spend less energy to break bonds(catabolisims) among these molecules during cellular respiration  pathways  to trap the energy.

In addition glucose the end products of carbohydrate did not need any processing before it enters glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle and oxidative phosphorylation pathways to generate energy for the cells.

Conversely, for protein to be used it has to be first deaminated(removal of amino acid) by the liver  before it enters glycolysis,while fats needs to  be broken down and undergo beta oxidation   with the long chains removed  before it can  form acetyl CoA. Therefore cells will prefer few steps, less endergonic  pathways of glucose than longer more endergonic amino acids  and fatty acid pathways.

Furthermore, glucose can be used in cellular respiration to  produce energy either aerobically or anaerobically, while fats can only be used anaerobically. Therefore, since cells usually prefer to thrive in aerobic conditions they  breakdown glucose easily during this period, and when lack of oxygen occurs they switched to anaerobic, Thus, the versatility of glucose to oxygen concentration makes glucose a better choice. Besides if fats was used anaerobically, ketone bodies build up which may be toxic to the cells.

Way an egg is so much larger then a sperm cell, need help.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The egg contains both food and mitochondria in addition to its vital DNA, thats why it is much larger. The sperm cell has to be much smaller than the egg cell, because it is the one that swims. If a sperm cell were as big as an egg, it would not be able to move very fast nor very far.
