The data on Climate change is as explained below-
Explanation:
Climate change is the ominous “hard truth” concurrently. However, it is not the first time that climate change is happening. In geological history, we find plenty of evidence of climate change.
The most important and famous of all such changes is the climate change that occurred during the Mesozoic era leading to the extinction of Dinosaurus. The reason behind these all climate changes was different. However, the climate change we are witnessing at present has something extra to all this natural stuff.
The present climate change is fuelled by anthropogenic activities at large. Large scale emission of greenhouse gases possibly from burning of fossil fuels ever since the Industrial revolutions in the late 18th century has altered the chemical composition of atmospheric gases. In addition to the use of fossil fuels other activities such as agriculture, coal-based power plants, deforestation and other such activities have been instrumental in degrading the serene balance between different atmospheric gases.
The evidence of the present climate change can be gauged in-
- The rise in global average temperature-Earth’s mean temperature has risen by around 1° C ever since the 19th century. 2017 proved to be the warmest year in the record.
- Oceans have been net absorber of the heat. This has led to the warming up of oceans. This severely hampers and impact marine flora and fauna
- Deglaciation- the increasing temperature has manifested in the form of shrinking ice-sheets. Large icebergs are calving and thus has some serious long-term impact for the sustenance of mankind.
- Rise in the mean sea level- The sea level has risen by almost 10 inches since last century. This increase is all set to increase in future thus endangering the lives and livelihood of the coastal communities.
All the leading personalities of the time including the ex-president of the US Mr Barak Obama emphasised the importance of climate change and urged the global community to tackle it at earliest. In his words, he mentioned, “No other challenge poses as great a threat to the future generation as the climate change”. In addition to Mr Obama, noted climate activist Greta Thunberg described the climate change to be the greatest crisis to the humanity that it has ever faced.
Therefore, it can be safely argued that it’s urgent to talk and act tough on climate change. Climate change has transitioned into a multi-headed monster capable enough to devastate the entire mankind. It has done this earlier and sure to carry it further on.
Answer:
25 possibly
Explanation:
I'm not too sure about this, but sodium oxide is Na2O, 2 sodium and 1 oxygen, so 12.5g * 2 is 25
If someone else comes up with a more convincing argument listen to them
The giant piles of mining waste called tailings. These wastes consists of ground rock and process effluents from a mining plant. These wastes are stored on a surface either in a facility or in the form of piles. Also, sometimes it is stored underground in areas that are mined out.
hey there!:
A) Knowing theatre the protease is showing the highest activity at pH 4-6, implies that the amino acid that amino acid that it is acting in is an amino acid with a basic side chain. Therefore, the residues can be any one of the three basic amino acids being histidine, arginine or lysine , having basic side chains at neutral pH.
b) The mechanism of reaction of cysteine proteases is as follows:
First step in the reaction is the deprotonation of a thiol in the cysteine proteases's active site by an adjacent amino acid with a basic side chain, which might be a histidine residue. This is followed by a nucleophilic attack by the anionic sulfur of the deprotonated cysteine on the substrate carbonyl carbon.
Here, a part of the substrate is released with an amine terminus, restoring the His into a deprotonated form, thus forming a thioester intermediate, forming a link between the carboxy-terminal of the substrate and cysteine, resulting in thiol formation. Thus the name thiol proteases. The thioester bond is then hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid moiety while again forming the free enzyme.
C) cysteine proteases have a pka of 8-9 but when they are deprotonated by a His residue, their pka would come down to 6-8, which would be their optimal pH for functioning. This is because there is a deprotonation of the thiol group , later restoring the HIS deprotonated form and then formation of a thioester bond. This thioester bond when hydrolysed will a carboxylate moeity , which is responsible for bringing the pH down towards a more acidic side.
d) at the optimal pH , the fraction of deprotonated cysteine and protonated B will be equal which will change with the change in pH.
Hope this helps!
