Why do cells have a limit to how big or small they can be?

Chemistry

Pepsi [2]4 years ago
4 0
Cells are so little, so they can maximize their ratio of surface area to volume. Smaller cells have a higher ratio which allow more molecules and ions move across the cell membrane per unit of cytoplasmic volume. Cells are so small because they need to be able to get the nutrients in and the waste out quickly.

The molar mass of water (H2O) is 18.02 g/mol. Yun needs 0.025 mol H2O for a laboratory experiment. She calculates that she needs
Tomtit [17]
The relation between moles and mass is given by the formula:


# of moles = (mass in grams) / (molar mass)


So, given the molar mass of 18.02 and 0.025 mol, you can solve the formula for the mass of water in grams:


mass of water in grams = # of moles of water * molar mass of water


mass of water in grams = 0.025 mol * 18.02 g / mol  =   0.4505 g of water.


Then, she is wrong.

Which Earth motion describes the wobbling of the Earth around its precessional axis and
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Nutation

Explanation:

The counterclockwise rotation of planet earth around its own axis is defined as the Earth Rotation. The earth rotates about the line called "the axis of rotation," it is an imaginary line that passes through the North and South Poles of the planet, which the earth rotates about.

Hence, earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun, from West to East and thus giving rise to;

a. Day and night

b. Seasons

The Earth motion which describes the wobbling of the Earth around its precessional axis and could alter the amount of seasonal effects is known as nutation.

Basically, nutation usually occurs when the precessional motion of a planetary body such as planet earth experience some form of irregularities when it is rotating.
