Answer:

Cotton

Explanation:

Cellulose, another natural polymer, is the main structural component of plants. Most natural polymers are condensation polymers, and in their formation from monomers water is a by-product.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. Cotton</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

A polymer is a macro molecule or gaint molecule which is formed as a chain from  many small molecules(which is called as a monomer).

Polymer is a repeating unit of many monomers.

For example  

Ethylene or ethane formula is C2H4.

Many ethane molecules under particular temperature and pressure conditions undergo the polymerization process to form polyethene. During this process the double bond breaks and becomes single bond and produces a long chain which we call it as a polymer.

The repeating unit of Cotton polymer is called as Cellubiose which is made up of 2 glucose units.

The number of units which forms the polymer (degree of polymerization) is about 5000 cellubiose units.

A cell contains the same DNA as its parent cell. This is a result of which process? mitosis meiosis gamete formation fertilizati
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Mitosis

Explanation:

A cell that contains the same DNA as its parent cell is a product of mitosis.

  • Mitosis is a cell division process that takes place in somatic cells.
  • In meiosis a single cell divides to produce two daughter cells each having the same DNA as the parent
  • Mitosis ensures that the same DNA is found between the parent
  • Mitosis is used for repairing and production of new cells.

A wave of infrared light has a speed of 6 m/s and a wavelength of 12 m. What is the frequency of this wave?
andreev551 [17]

Answer: The frequency of the wave is 0.5 hertz.

Explanation:

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu = Frequency of the wave

c = speed of the light in m/s

\lambda = Wavelength of the wave.

Here in question we are given with speed of the infrared light. So, we will replace the value of speed of light(c) from the given value of the speed of the infrared light.

Speed of infrared light = 6 m/s

\nu =\frac{\text{speed of infrared light}}{\lambda }=\frac{6 m/s}{12 m}=0.5 hertz

The frequency of the wave is 0.5 hertz.
