Answer:
The correct answer is " As you increase altitude, Earth's gravity is not acting as greatly as when closer to Earth's surface so the weight of air molecules decrease, which also in turn decreases air pressure."
Explanation:
As altitude increases air becomes rarefied. At higher altitudes there is less Earth's gravity acting on the air molecules than at areas close the earth surface. Air pressure is the weight of air acting per unit surface area. At higher altitudes as the weight of air decreases due to reduced gravitational pull the air pressure also decreases.

Explanation:
Pyruvate is produced by the glycolysis in cytoplasm. The oxidation of pyruvate takes place in mitochondrial matrix.
Pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA in the reaction given below:
Pyruvate + NAD⁺ + CoA-SH ⇒ acetyl-CoA + NADH + CO₂
1 molecule of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 1 molecule of pyruvate.
Also,
2 molecules of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 2 molecules of pyruvate (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate).
Also, acetyl-CoA further goes into the citric acid cycle and produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide.
Thus pyruvate produces total 3 molecules of CO₂ and hence glucose produces 6 molecules of CO₂ (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate)
Thus,
<u>Fraction = 2/6 = 1/3</u>
Answer:
The density of igneous rocks is related to its color. Darker colored rocks have a higher density because of its greater mineral and iron content. Its characteristics is opposite compared to lighter colored rocks that have less density because of lower mineral and iron content
