Answer:
C. ribosomes
Explanation:
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain certain structures called ORGANELLES. They possess some in common and others are not found in one or the other. According to this question, a small, free-floating organelle made from nucleic acid and amino acid is found in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. This organelle is RIBOSOMES.
Ribosomes are organelles responsible for the synthesis of protein in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. They can be found free-floating or attached to endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes are predominantly made of RNA (nucleic acid) and proteins i.e. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins is their structural constituent. Hence, the organelle in this question is RIBOSOME.
Answer:
The atom is oxidized is Ca.
Explanation:
- The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).
- The oxidation process is the process in which electrons are lost and produce positively charged ions.
- The reduction process is the process in which electrons is gained and negatively charge ions are produced.
- In the reaction of chlorine with calcium:
<em>Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂,</em>
Ca loses 2 electrons and is oxidized to Ca²⁺. (Ca <em>→</em> Ca²⁺ + 2e).
Cl is gains 2 electrons in "Cl₂, oxidation state zero" and is reduced to Cl⁻. (Cl₂ + 2e <em>→</em> 2Cl⁻).
