Answer:

C,D,,B) The molecule is likely a sugar.

Explanation:

The molecule is(hexose) a glucose.It  is a sugar formed as  the products of photosynthesis.It is also a carbohydrate because all sugars are CHO,although not all CHO are sugars.It is the smallest  components of cell membranes.Protein are the largest components based on molecular mass,while phospholipids are the largest components.

The three major elements in the molecule are Carbon.Hydrogen  and Oxygen. The general formula of carbohydrate is Cx(H2O)y. The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:1.Thus the hydrate refers to the water content.

Sugar as monosaccharide glucose is the simplest form with general molecular  formula of (CH2O)n  where may be n = 3 to 6. In glucose n=6,and it is called Hexose. Therefore the  molecule of glucose is C6H1206 in ratio 1:2:1.

The arrangement of glucose could be in straight chain or ring structure,Hexose sugar of glucose  and pentose can be ring structure.They have C-H chain length long enough to form ring structure.

In  glucose this can either be alpha or beta ring structure. Therefore the molecule is either the alpha or beta-glucose ring.

What are natural causes of earthquakes that is what are the tectonic features and actions that result in seismic waves?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Anearthquake is what happens when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another. The surface where they slip is called the fault.
or

An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of stored energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves.

Earthquakes are accordingly measured with a seismometer, commonly known as a seismograph.

The magnitude of an earthquake is conventionally reported using the Richter scale or a related Moment scale 





An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground.

The strain becomes so great that rocks give way by breaking and sliding along fault planes.

Earthquakes may occur naturally or as a result of human activities.

Smaller earthquakes can also be caused by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments.

Why does the survival of species depend more on populations than on the life spans of individual organisms
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The survival of a species depends more on the population because a population contains many type of organisms of the same species. Some of them are better adapted to survive the conditions provided by the Earth and hence, they live and produce offsprings with the favourable traits. The members of a population which are not better adapted mostly do not survive.

Hence, the survival of a species depends on the population where it is living.
