Mitochondria are the power plants of the cells.
Solution:
Structure dictates function. Ribosomes provide another good example of structure determining function. These small cellular components are made of protein and ribosomal RNA (RNA).Their main function is to translate messenger RNA, or mRNA, into strings of amino acids called proteins.
The structure and shape of each type of human cell depends on what function it will perform in the body. For example, red blood cells (RBCs) are very small, flat discs, which allows them to easily fit through narrow capillaries and around sharp corners in the circulatory system to deliver oxygen throughout the body.
Neurons carry messages from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body, using electrical signals down their lengths and chemical signals between neurons. Since electrical signals travel much faster than chemical signals, neurons are long and thin to minimize the number of slower chemical signals that would be required between links in a chain of many shorter neurons.
The elongated shape of muscle cells allows the contraction proteins to line up in an overlapping pattern that makes muscle flexing possible.
And human sperm cells’ structures allow them to “swim” long distances to reach an egg for fertilization. They do this by using flagella, their long whip-like tails, and also by being very small, carrying little more than the DNA for a potential zygote.
This is the required answer.
Answer:
a) 0.56moles
b) 2.78moles
Explanation:
The number of moles can be calculated by using the formula;
Mole (n) = Mass (M) ÷ Molar mass (MM)
For a glucose molecule, with chemical formula: C6H12O6
Where atomic mass of C= 12, H=1, O= 16
Molar mass of C6H12O6= 12(6) + 1(12) + 16(6)
= 72 + 12 + 96
= 180g/mol
a) In 100g of glucose;
Mole = 100/180
Mole = 0.56moles
b) In 500g of glucose
Mole = 500/180
Mole = 2.78moles
Answer:
b. where movement occurs through arm-over-arm swinging.
Explanation:
Brachiation is a form of locomotion observed in some species of animal that are adapted to arboreal (tree living) life.
<em>This type of locomotion involves the swinging of arms and the suspension of the body to move from trees to trees.</em>
Animals that exhibit brachiation usually have modified body structure with long forelimbs/hook-like fingers and a highly mobile shoulder joints. Examples of such animals include gibbons and siamangs.
The correct option is b.
