<span>There are more than 550 active
volcanoes in the world, almost all of which are located at convergent
tectonic plate boundaries. This includes all of the volcanoes in the
Pacific Ring of Fire, such as Japan's Mount Fuji, as well as Mount Saint
Helens, Popocafepetl in Mexico and Azul in the Andes Range.</span>

See explanation
Explanation:
Chlorine is a member of the halogen family known as a toxic yellowish green gas. Inhalation of chlorine for a prolonged period of time leads to pulmonary edema. If a person comes in contact with compressed liquid chlorine the person may experience frostbite of the skin and eyes.
However chlorine is very useful in water disinfection and is preferred in water treatment because it provides residual disinfection of the treated water.
Chlorine gas may be dissolved in NaOH to form oxochlorate I which is used as a bleach in cleaning.
Answer:
c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.
e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.
f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.
Explanation:
The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.
Myoglobin binds oxygen
The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:
Answer:
false.
Explanation:
the smallest particle of a element is an atom
