Answer:

1 oxygen atom and 1 hydrogen atom from the glucose molecule, and 1 oxygen atom from the fructose molecule were taken to make the water molecule. The rest of the atoms in the glucose and fructose molecules (glucose: 6 carbon, 11 hydrogen, 5 oxygen. Fructose: 6 carbon, 12 hydrogen, 5 oxygen.) combine to make sucrose(12 carbon, 22 hydrogen, 11 oxygen).

Answer:

A glycosidic linkage connects the carbon 1 in glucose and carbon 2 in fructose.

Also OH is removed from carbon 2 of fructose and carbon 1 of glucose to release water

Explanation:

Disaccharides such as Sucrose are formed by the combination of two or more monosaccharide.

A sucrose is formed when glucose (C6H12O6) combines with another monomer named fructose (C6H12O6) though a dehydration process where water is released and a glycosidic bond (-- O--) is formed

Both these monosaccharides have numbering on their carbon atoms starting from the terminal carbon closest to the carbonyl group. A glycosidic linkage connects the carbon 1 in glucose and carbon 2 in fructose.

Also OH is removed from carbon 2 of fructose and carbon 1 of glucose to release water

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is an excellent method of generating copies of target DNA. If a single piece of double stranded
enyata [817]

Answer: After 3 rounds, 8 segments having 2 original strands on different segments will be present.

Explanation:

The polymerase chain reaction selectively and repeatedly copy the double stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the PCR machine.

1st round:

Single piece of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) unwinds in two seperate strands, before complementary nucleotides are synthesized to establish double helix.

2nd round:

The two dsDNA yields 4 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized

3rd round:

The four dsDNA yields 8 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized.

Therefore, at the end of 3 rounds, the two original strands will be present on the 8 different segments of copied DNA.

Would an Egyptian pyramid that is 4500 years old be considered a fossil?
lara [203]

An Egyptian pyramid that is 4500 years old will be considered as a fossil in this scenario.

<h3>What is a Fossil?</h3>

This is defined as trace of an animal or plant of a past geologic age that has been preserved in Earth's crust.

Since it has been discovered that the egyptian pyramid contains thousands of marine fossils then it can be generally referred to as a fossil.

Hey y'all I need help with this bio question: what are the pros and cons of different skin tones in different parts of the world
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Oh this one is so cool!

It basically all boils down to Vitamin D! We need this essential vitamin to help our body build hormones and regulate calcium. Our bodies make Vitamin D when we are exposed to the UV rays found in sunlight. But as we all know, too much sunlight isn’t good because these UV rays can harm us. Melanin (the chemical that our bodies produce to darken skin tone and hair color) provides protection from UV rays by absorbing them. However, this means that the more melanin that is produced by someone’s body results in less absorption of UV rays and a decrease in Vitamin D production. But for someone living around the equator or in the tropics that doesn’t matter because there’s lots of sun all the time. So for humans living in these areas where there’s lots of sunlight year round, it’s beneficial to have darker skin to protect from the harm of UV rays. People living in these areas still get plenty of Vitamin D though because of that year round sunshine.

Now what about those who’s skin has less melanin, such as those found in the higher latitudes? Well with less sunlight year round, their bodies had to adapt to be able to get enough Vitamin D. So less melanin is produced by the body in order to absorb the lesser amounts of UV rays to make Vitamin D. Lighter skin is, therefore, more beneficial the farther away you go from the tropics.

So essentially:
Pro of Darker Skin tones
-Protection from harmful UV rays

Con of Darker Skin tones
-Less absorption of UV rays and less production of Vitamin D

Pro of Lighter Skin tones
-Greater absorption of UV rays and more Vitamin D production

Con of Lighter Skin tones
-Less protection from harmful UV rays (resulting in sunburns and, in extreme cases, skin cancer)

This is of course the biology answer. The social impacts of different skin tones is a whole different story that you can ask in the history section.

What is turgor pressure and why is it important
saw5 [17]
Turgor pressure is the water pressure inside plant cells. This is maintained by osmosis, which is the movement of water across a <span>different permeable membrane from a place where water concentration is higher to one where the concentration is lower.

Turgor pressure is important because it is what helps a plant stand upright and maintain the plant's structure.</span>
