Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:
</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq)
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.
Three of the functions of proteins are as antibodies, as enzymes and as messengers. As antibodies, they protect the cells from diseases ie they fight diseases. As enzymes, they regulate the chemical reactions within cells, and thirdly they transmit signals as messengers such as hormones do in co-ordinating biological processes. Proteins are so diverse because of their unique 3-D structures which their polymers form from the 20 amino acids available as their building blocks.
Answer: Humans are increasingly influencing the climate and the earth's temperature by burning fossil fuels, cutting down forests and farming livestock.
Explanation: This adds enormous amounts of greenhouse gases to those naturally occurring in the atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Earth is so hot inside that magma erupts and flies out. LOL hope this helps.
Answer:
Length of a rectangle whose width is 4 inches is
<u>6 inches</u>
Explanation:
Ratio of length to its width is 3 to 2
Let length = L
Let Width = B
L: B = 3 : 2 (given)
Width ,B = 4
Insert B in above equation
cross multiply,
L = 6 inches
Conversion(if required) ,
1 inch = 2.54 cm
6 inch = 2.54 (6)
L = 15.24 cm
