I am 100% sure it is 10 AMUS

The right answer is 10 amu.

The unit of unified atomic mass, of symbol "u", is a standard unit of measure, used to express the mass of atoms and molecules.

This unit does not belong to the International System (SI), and its value is obtained experimentally. It is defined as 1/12 of the mass of a nuclide 12C (carbon 12), unbound at rest and in its ground state. In other words, a 12C atom has a mass of exactly 12u, and a mole of 12C atoms (N atoms, where N is the number of Avogadro) has a mass of exactly 12g. As a result, 1 u is approximately 1.660 538 921 × 10-27 kg.

The average mass of a nucleon depends on the total number of nucleons in the atomic nucleus, because of the mass defect. This is why the mass of a proton or a neutron taken separately is strictly greater than 1 u.

In the nucleus, we can see that there are 10 nucleons (protons and neutrons) so the mass of the atom is close to 10amu.

Which substances would complete the equation that models the overall process of cellular respiration?
Brrunno [24]
Cellular respiration is a chemical oxidation-reduction reaction that provides the energy needed for a cell to function.C6H12O6 + O2 == CO2 + H2O (+ ATP)

The molecules involved in cellular respiration are:Oxygen O2: from the air we breatheCarbohydrate (glucose): represents a source of energyCarbon dioxide CO2: from glucose degradationATP: the energetic molecules used by the cell
And finally H2O.

Which of the following would you expect to contain cells with the same number of chromsomes as an egg cell in a plant? (Pick all
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option -  A. Gametophyte, C. spore, and D. sperm.

Explanation:

The egg cell of a plant is haploid in the cell which means it has only one set of chromosomes. The haploid cells arise from the meiosis cell division in parent sex cells. These parent cells are divided into four cells with half of the chromosome number in comparison to the parent cells.

The gametophyte, spore, and sperm all three are the product of the meiosis division and are haploid in number.

Thus, the correct answer is option - A, gametophyte, C. spore and D. sperm.
