Answer:

True

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is transported by the blood in the dissolved form. carbonic anhydrase is the enzyme which is a metalloenzyme having zinc at active site converts carbon dioxide into carbonic acid which dissolves in the blood.

Thus,  

H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g) ⇔ H⁺(aq) + HCO₃²⁻(aq)

The kidneys in the body help to control the acid base balance. The hydrogen ion secretion in the body leads to the generation and reabsorption of the bicarbonate ions to form carbon dioxide in order to nullify the effect of the acid generated and thus the pH of the blood is maintained.

Selah is making a mobile of an atom of beryllium to hang from the ceiling in her science class. She uses a clear plastic bag for
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because the images of the models are absent. However, i will try to give you a general description of what the correct answer should be.

Beryllium is a member of group 2 in the periodic table. Beryllium has an atomic number of 4. This implies that it has four protons in its nucleus and four electrons in its shells. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons on the shells is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.

The electronic configuration of Beryllium is 1s2 2s2. This implies that it should have two shells each containing only two electrons each.

Since we are using white foam balls for protons and black foam balls for neutrons, the clear plastic will contain four white foam balls and five  black foam balls since the mass number of beryllium is 9 and number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons.

Four blue foam balls hanging from strings will represent the electrons around the nucleus.

Any model that corresponds to the description above is the correct answer.

What kind of energy transformation happens when a boy uses energy from a sandwich to run the race​
Nezavi [6.7K]
First when a person began to digest the food it becomes a chemical energy. The chemical energy is converted into a kinetic energy. As the body gets energy the kinetic is converted into a mechanical energy.

So here the sandwich is the food I hope it is accurate and helpful:)
