5 0

Answer:

The carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid.

Explanation:

      CO2+H2O=H2CO3

In this reaction carbon dioxide(CO2) and water(H2O) act as reactant  to form carbonic acid(H2CO3) which is a weak acid.

       The above reaction is an important reaction carried out by  bicarbonate buffer system to maintain normal acid base balance inside our body but this buffer system includes an additional reaction in with carbonic acid is ionized to form H+ and HCO3- ion or bicarbonate ion.

The main source of ATP in an organism comes from
levacccp [35]

Adenosine Triphosphate. Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is the primary source of energy in both plant and animal cells. ATP is a nucleotide that is the basis for all cell reactions, including the reactionary process of converting food molecules into energy.

which statement is false about base stacking when nucleic acids are in a double-stranded conformation?
Lilit [14]

The statement that is false about base stacking is; B. Stacking interactions are hydrophilic in nature.

<h3>What is the truth about Base Stacking?</h3>

Base stacking is defined as a common arrangement of nucleobases that are found in the three dimensional structure of nucleic acids. Bases (or base pairs) are planar, and these planes stack at contact distance , excluding water and maximizing Van der Waals interactions.

Looking at the given options, the only one that can be said to be false about the defined base stacking above as regards nucleic acids is option B.

The missing options are;

A. Stacking interactions occur when two or more bases are positioned with their rings parallel to each other.

B. Stacking interactions are hydrophilic in nature.

C. Stacking involves a combination of van der Waals and dipole-dipole interactions between bases.

D. Base stacking helps to minimize contact of the bases with water.

E. Base stacking interactions are important in stabilizing the three-dimensional structure of nucleic acids.

Katyanochek1 [597]
Answer: the low air pressure reducing CO2 solubility

The differences between the airplane and standard cruising altitude are air pressure. When you are on the higher ground, the air pressure should be lower since there is less air above your head.
In a place with less air pressure, the gas solubility will decrease. Bubbles appeared if gas solubility is lower than the gas concentration. Assuming the beverage concentration is same, then it will be much more bubble appeared in an airplane because the gas solubility is lower.
