How is friction harmful when riding a bike?

Friction is harmful, because if you fall off a bike and friction occurs, you could get scraped/burned BADLY, or if you go on too high of a speed, your tires could burn off due to friction.

Friction helps stop a bike when you use the brakes, but it can be harmful by slowing your speed down, if you hit the brakes hard at the sudden moment, you could possibly tumble and or fall. It also causes heat, so if not used correctly, that can be an injury. If you were to fall from the sudden stop, you could possibly hit the ground which can cause a knee injury and or scrapes.

How do glycolysis, pyruvate processing, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain work together to provide energy for th
Ivahew [28]

When the cell gains glucose, the process of glycolysis occurs and then the glucose is broken down into pyruvate.  

Now, in pyruvate processing, Acetyl CoA is produced and used in the Krebs Cycle.

During that process, NADH and FADH2 are made and go into the electron transport chain. That is where water and ATP are made.

The sole of a gecko's foot is covered with millions and millions of small, dry "hairs" that make direct contact with surfaces, a
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: Van der Waals forces

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces that depend on the distance between two particles. They are caused by correlations in the change in polarization between two nearby particles. To put it in other words, when a particle changes its polarization (becomes more positive on one end and more negative on the other), so does the adjacent particle, and the next one, and so on. This causes these particles to stick together weakly.

The tiny "hairs" increase the surface area of the gecko's feet in contact with the wall, which makes the bond stronger and allows it to support all of its weight.

Because experiments have shown that geckos stick well to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, we can assume there aren't any hydrogen bonds present.

Ionic bonds can't be present either because geckos wouldn't stick to electrically neutral surfaces, as these bonds require charged molecules.
