Answer;

Sulfur hexafluoride

Explanation;

-Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inorganic, colorless, odorless, and non-flammable greenhouse gas.

-Sulfur hexafluoride has an octahedral geometry, consisting of six fluorine atoms attached to a central sulfur atom. It is a hypervalent molecule.

-Being a nonpolar gas, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It is generally transported as a liquefied compressed gas.

-It is used in the electrical industry as a gaseous dielectric medium for high-voltage circuit breakers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment, often replacing oil filled circuit breakers (OCBs) that can contain harmful PCBs.

In which process CO2, is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

B) Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle)

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks glucose into two pyruvate molecules. Pyruvate is decarboxylated into acetyl CoA and the reaction occurs in the matrix of mitochondria. In the mitochondrial matrix, acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle and is broken down into CO2 and H2O. For one molecule of acetyl CoA, two molecules of CO2 are released as a by-product. Therefore, out of three carbon atoms of pyruvate, two are released as CO2 during Kreb's cycle.

In the lac operon, the repressor:a. binds to allolactose and becomes active, blocking lac gene expression.b. binds allolactose a
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

c. binds to allolactose and becomes inactive, allowing lac gene expression to occur.

Explanation:

Interaction between allolactose and repressor leads to allosteric repulsion which makes repressor inactive leading to the lac gene expression. This is the reason why allolactose is known as the inducer of lac operon becasue it causes gene expression in lac operon.

In the absence of allolactose, the repressor binds the operator and does not allow RNA polymerase to do transcription.
