Answer:

concentration of calcium ion mEq/L = 1.21 x 2 = 2.42mEq/L

Explanation:

given

  • concentration of calcium ion in blood =  1.21 mmol/L
  • Concentration in mEq/L = Concentration in mmol/L x valence of the ion
  • but Valence of Ca2+=2
  • The valence electron is the number of electron present in the outermost shell. Calcium belongs to the group2 elements also known as the alkaline earth metal, and their valence electron is 2.

  • Hence, concentration of calcium ion mEq/L = 1.21 x 2 = 2.42mEq/L

where mEq/L  = milliequivalent per liter

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Option a, survive in extreme environments

Explanation:

Both Thermus and Deinococcus belong to the group of bacteria that are collectively termed as Deinococcus–Thermus group.

Deinococcus are radiation-resistant vegetative cell as they are able to resist ionising radiation. Also some species of Deinococcus are thermophile.

Thermus are thermophilic bacteria that are able to live in extreme temperature condition and thus are able to tolerate high temperature.

Hence, option A is correct.

A sample of soil from a C horizon is light brown in color and has a high content of a mineral called feldspar. Which of the foll
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: C. The C horizon is very deep.

Horizons are the layers of soil develops as a result of soil formation. Horizon lies parallel to the earth surface. Each horizon differs from the other on the basis of amount or organic matter present, color of the soil, texture of soil and other components making up horizon, and amount and type of minerals present in the soil.

C horizon is the horizon that lies deeper region of the collective soil horizon. It consist of unweathered or partially weathered rocks or their aggregates. Therefore, it retains the original chemical composition of the parent rock. This results in the higher mineral content as compared to other horizons. This horizon also lacks the organic matter as no or very little decomposition activity of plant and animal matter takes place. Therefore, color of soil in this horizon in the absence of organic matter remains light.

Hence, a sample of soil from a C horizon is light brown in color and has a high content of a mineral called feldspar is because of the fact that the C horizon is very deep.
