Answer:

Option D. fluorine-18

Explanation:

The attached photo gives the explanation.

In the attached photo, A zX represent the atom that will undergo beta decay to produce oxygen–18.

After the calculation, A zX was found to be fluorine–18.

In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.

What is the mass of 7.50 moles of magnesium chloride, mgcl2?
Natali5045456 [20]
MgCl2 = 1Mg + 2Cl = 1(24.3) + 2(35.45) = 95.2g/1mole
7.50moles MgCl2 x 95.2g MgCl2 = 714g MgCl2

How does your Respiratory system work with your Cardiovascular system?​
Mazyrski [523]

To supply oxygen to the body, the respiratory system works closely with the circulatory system. As oxygen is taken in into the lungs, it travels through blood vessels, which then circulate oxygen-rich blood to cells and tissues.

If the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 what would be the volume of 550 g of gold?​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

28.497 cm3

Explanation:

Formula

D=m/v

Given data:

density = 19.3g/cm3

mass = 550 g

Now we will put the values in formula:

V=m/d

V=550 g/ 19.3 g/cm3  = 28.497 cm3

So the volume of gold is 28.497 cm3.
