Answer:

The only true statement in the options given is this: MORE ATP IS GENERATED FROM THE METABOLISM OF A FATTY ACID THAN A GLUCOSE MOLECULE.

Explanation:

Glucose is the primary source of fuel for the living cells. Cells break down glucose to obtain energy which they use to carry out their life activities. The other major macro nutrients apart from glucose are fatty acids and proteins. When glucose is not available for cells' use, fatty acid and protein can be converted to glucose through the process of gluconeogenesis.

All though all the three macro molecules can produce energy, fat is the one that produce the highest amount of energy; each gram of fat supplies about 9 calories while glucose supply 4 calories and protein supply less than 4 calories.

Thus, more ATP is generated from the metabolism of fatty acid than a glucose and protein molecules.

Answer:

1) you're going to have to flip the coins (or fake numbers) for the experimental trials.

2) for the theoretical, there is 1/2 chance for heads or tails with each toss, so you'd expect that out of 10 tosses, 5 heads, 5 tails. out of 100 tosses- 50 heads, 50 tails.

When tossing 2 coins- 1/2×1/2 = 1/4 (25%) chance that 2 heads, 2 tails, or 1 heads & 1 tails. Deviation value comes from after you done your flipping and recorded your data. So if on 100 flips you actually got 50 and 50 (rarely us that exact ;), the deviation from the expected of 50/50 would be 0.00. If however you flipped 100 heads or 100 tails (impossible), then the deviation value would be 1.00.

|(100-50)| ÷ 50 = 50÷50 = 1.00

So usually you may have data like: 47/53 or something a little off than 50/50, making deviation |(47-50)| ÷ 50 = 3÷50 = 0.06.

Now the number of flips is important for the outcome! So if a coin toss if 10 times had 4 heads, 6 tails, the deviation value would be:

|(4-5)| ÷ 5 = 1÷5 = 0.20

So increasing the # flips DECREASES the deviation value!!

Whether it's from 10 to 100, or from 100 to 200. Look at my example of how the 10-flip deviation of 0.20 decreased to 0.06 with 100-flip
