What is missing in the following nuclear equation? 99 TC → ? + 99 Ru 43 44

Biology
1 answer:
Zolol [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: A beta particle

Explanation:

A beta particle is simply a high energy electron that is emitted from the nucleus. It DOES NOT affect the mass number of radioactive element TC, but affects the ATOMIC NUMBER by increasing it by 1 in Ru.

Thus mass number 99 remain the same in TC and Ru, but Atomic number increases from 43 to 44 due to beta decay

So, a beta particle is missing

What determines the structure and function of a proteins?
mote1985 [20]

The function of a protein is determined by its shape. The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids). The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.

The major difference between starch, glycogen, and cellulose and their adjacent glucose subunits is the ________.
sveta [45]

Answer:

<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.

Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.

Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.

Determine the nature of chromosomes that align themselves on the metaphase plate in metaphase 1.
SOVA2 [1]
<span>Homologous chromosomes have to attach together to the same spindle fiber during prophase 1. Then, some of them may go through crossing over, which switches fragments of them. Then, each pair of homologous will migrate to equatorial plane during metaphase 1. So, in the metaphase plate you will have pairs of homologous, both of them duplicated, but the 4 chromatides may be different due to crossing over (it depends on where the enzymes have cut and pasted in that process).</span>
