Food molecules contain biochemical energy which is made available by a process called respiration.
Respiration is the process within cells by which living things break down food chemicals in their bodies and use them as a source of energy.
The proteins, lipids and polysaccharides that make up most of the food we eat must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them either as a source of energy or as building blocks for other molecules. This process is named catabolism and occurs in 3 stages.
Stage 1 is the enzymatic breakdown of food molecules in the digestion process into their monomer subunits- amino acids, glucose and glycerol.
Stage 2 is the process of glycolysis where each molecule of glucose is converted to pyruvate.
Stage 3 is production of ATP, the form of energy needed by the body to function. This stage takes place in the mitochondria of the cells. ATP is produced from conversion of pyruvate to acetylCoA in a process called the Citric Acid Cycle.
Let x be the volume of fluid removed and the volume of pure antifreeze that is added. The concentration of antifreeze in the fluid is 0.3, the concentration in pure antifreeze is 1 and that in the final solution is 0.4 The volume of the final solution is 10.
(10 - x)(0.3) + x = 10(0.4)
0.3 + 0.7x = 0.4
x = 1/7 quarts
The volume that should be drained is 1/7 quarts
Answer:
The enthalpy of the reaction is –184.6 kJ, and the reaction is exothermic.
Explanation:
Answer: In general, the non-renal causes of increased plasma/serum urea result in a mild to moderate increase (usually no greater than 10.0 mmol/L (BUN 28 mg/dL). Concentration in patients with renal dysfunction can range from mildly increased to severely increased, depending on severity of disease.
Explanation:
The bonds that hold atoms together to form molecules are called covalent bonds. They are pretty tough and not easily made or broken apart. It takes energy to make the bonds and energy is released when the bonds are broken. Trees take light and use it to make bonds between carbon atoms and molecules of cellulose. I hope this helps:)
