The atomic number of nitrogen is 7. What is the mass number of a nitrogen atom with 6 neutrons?

Biology
1 answer:
omeli [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: The mass number is 13

Explanation:

Mass number = Protrons + neutrons;

While Atomic number = Number of neutrons

Therefore, if the atomic number of nitrogen is given as 7, then its Protrons = 7

So, mass number = 7 + 6 = 13

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The entry of food into the stomach.

Explanation:

Gastric secretion is triggered by the act of eating which is called as reflex phase and the entry of food into the stomach called a gastric phase. The entry of the food particles into the small intestine also helps to control the secretion of gastric called an intestinal phase.

The secreted fluid in the small intestine contains some ions, acids, etc such as pepsinogen, intrinsic factor, bicarbonate, hydrochloric acid, and mucus. The reflex phase or cephalic phase helps to stimulate parasympathetic neurons that release acetylcholine chemical, then it produces the higher secretion of gastric juice.

(b) Most globular proteins are denatured and lose their activity when briefly heated to 65 8C. However, globular proteins that c
frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

The higher temperature is the factor which is responsible for the process of denaturation of proteins in which the breaking down of hydrogen, disulphide bonds and destabilization occurs. This process breaks up the bond between the polypeptides.

The bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor comprises of 58 amino acids this consists of the disulphide bonds which are destroyed on heating as a result of this the inhibitor becomes inactive. But on cooling it comes to the original form as the internal structure starts making hydrogen and disulphide bonds again. Thus the activity of the BPTI again gets restored.
