Make a decision about the molecule NaHCO3 classification organic or inorganic

motikmotik

<u>Answer:</u>

$NaHCO_{3}$ is an inorganic compound.

<u>Solution:</u>

Firstly, all the known definitions of organic compounds excludes Carbonic acid and it's salt from organic compounds except if 'C' is present in the cation.
Secondly, Sodium is a metal which organic compounds cannot posses as a compound.
Lastly, there is absence of C-H bond which is present in all the organic compounds.

Hence, we can conclude that $NaHCO_{3}$ is an inorganic compound though there is presence of Carbon atom in it.

During which stage of the cell cycle does the cell rest, grow, and copy DNA and organelles?

atroni [7]

The cell cycle or cell-division cycle is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA (DNA replication) to produce two daughter cells. In bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus, the cell cycle is divided into the B, C, and D periods. The B period extends from the end of cell division to the beginning of DNA replication.

The image shows the evolution of a species of fish. A few fish from a population developed different social behaviors and evolve

adell [148]

According to the image, the fish underwent sympatric speciation. The new species of fish had mating seasons that were different from that of the original fish. Because of the differences in mating seasons, the fish underwent reproductive isolation. This mode of isolation would be temporal.

Sympatric speciation happens within a population of an organism that gets isolated reproductively due to differences in their mating periods. This time dependent isolation is called temporal isolation. Example, a fish population can split into two if some of the fishes start mating early in the spring while the rest mate late in the autumn. The spring-mating population will not become compatible to mate with the late-autumn-mating population.
