Answer:
A They are incorporated into molecules of sugar.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is the metabolic process whereby sugar molecules are synthesized by plants in the presence of sunlight (light energy). For this process to occur, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are needed as reactants from external sources. Hence, the photosynthetic equation is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
According to this question, the carbon atoms in carbon dioxide are incorporated into sugar molecule (glucose). It takes 6 carbon atoms to produce one glucose molecule (C6H12O6). This process involves series of reaction in the light-independent stage of photosynthesis to occur.
C
Why? As you increased energy levels the distance between two energy levels gets larger. This is often due to shielding
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.
Answer:
The density of acetic acid at 30°C = 1.0354_g/mL
Explanation:
specific gravity of acetic acid = (Density of acetic acid at 30°C) ÷ (Density of water at 30°C)
Therefore, the density of acetic acid at 30°C = (Density of water at 30°C) × (Specific gravity of acetic acid at 30°C)
= 0.9956 g/mL × 1.040
= 1.0354_g/mL
Specific gravity, which is also known as relative density, is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a specified standard substance.
Generally the standard substance of to which other solid and liquid substances are compared is water which has a density of 1.0 kg per litre or 62.4 pounds/cubic foot at 4 °C (39.2 °F) while gases are normally compared with dry air, with a density of 1.29 grams/litre or 1.29 ounces/cubic foot under standard conditions of a temperature of 0 °C and one standard atmospheric pressure
