The materials that contain this stored carbon are coal, oil, peat and natural gas.
The collective term for these four materials is Fossil fuel , decomposing fungi, bacteria, and worms. 
Many of the carbon based fuels are categorized as fossil fuels because they formed from the decayed organisms over millions of years. Fossil fuels are the buried combustible geologic deposits of organic materials, formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude oil, coal, natural gas, or heavy oils by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over hundreds of millions of years.

arlik [135]

Answer: 2; 3

For each FADH2 that supplies electrons to the electron transport system, 2ATPs are synthesized. For each NADH that supplies electrons to the electron transport system, 3 ATPs are synthesized.

Explanation:

Both FADH2 and NADH are you reducing equivalents in that they give off electron in terms of hydrogen atom or a hydride ion.

Thus, in the inner membrane of the mitochondria where electron transport occurs, FADH2 gives off its hydride ion yielding 2 ATP molecules; while NADH gives off its hydride ions to yield 3 ATP molecules

kow [346]

Answer:

G1 checkpoint

Explanation:

The cell cycle consists of the series of activities that occurs from the replication of DNA to the actual division of the cell in an organism's cell. However, the cell has been internally programmed to ensure that all conditions are in place/favorable before allowing progression into the next stage of the cell cycle. This internally controlled mechanism ia called CHECKPOINTS. This checkpoint occurs at three main stages of the cell cycle;

after G1 phase, G2 phase and during M phase.

In the G1 checkpoint, the cell ensures that the cell is in the right shape to proceed into the Synthesis phase of the cell cycle where it will double it's DNA. The checkpoint checks majorly for damage or change to the DNA before replicating it. If any error is found, that cell is halted and prevented from proceeding to the S-phase of the cell cycle.

This is the case in the question, the cell has been halted and prevented from entering the S-phase. Hence, its DNA is still the same as it started. However, the DNA of the cells surrounding it has been doubled as they have undergone DNA replication during S-phase.

astraxan [27]
If B and b are the two alleles , B + b = 1 and B ^2 +2 Bb + b ^2 = 1.

If 16% of mice are homozygous black , B ^ 2 =0 .16, meaning B = 0 .4 and b = 1 - 0. 4 = 0 .6 .
Answer = Notice how you don't even need to know that 24% of the mice are heterozygous .
