Answer:

b. The number of each type of atom is the same for both the reactants and products.

Explanation:

A balanced chemical equation is characterized by each of the atoms of the reactants and the products being equal to each other. The atoms present in the reactants are also present in the products but are just rearranged. The equal number of atoms from both sides of the equation (reactants and products) follow the Law of Conservation of Mass.

Answer:

b. The number of each type of atom is the same for both the reactants and products.

Explanation:

A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction where the reactants are written on the left side and the products on the right side. <em>According to the law of conservation of mass, no atoms can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, therefore, the number of atoms in the reactant has to balance the number of atoms in the products (for each element).</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

How do you think seasons occur when the moon always changes alignment with the Earth each month? What can be some factors that c
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: The phases of the moon and the progression of Earth’s seasons are not specifically connected, but they hinge on similar processes: one astronomical body revolving around another. Both phenomena, along with the cycle of day and night, define the most intrinsic of earthly schedules.

Earth, Moon, Sun

The sun is the focus of our solar system, holding in its gravitational pull a collection of satellites that includes the nine planets. Earth, the third planet in distance from the sun, requires a little over 365 days to complete its orbit around the star. Caught in the influence of Earth’s own gravity is its moon, which takes 28 Earth days for its revolution around our planet, and is illuminated by various degrees of reflected sunlight.

Lunar Phases

During its 28-day orbital cycle, the moon rotates on its axis once, and thus presents the same face to the Earth; the “dark side” always points away from the planet. But the moon's appearance changes throughout that orbit in a succession of lunar phases, determined by the moon’s position in relation to the Earth and sun. When the Earth lies between the moon and sun, there is a “full moon." The moon reflects its maximum amount of sunlight at this time. When the opposite configuration is true--the moon is between Earth and sun--the moon is cast in shadow, manifesting as a “new moon.”

Each replication fork requires both leading and lagging strand synthesis. Why?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Because each strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new, complementary strand.

Explanation:

This is known as semiconservative DNA replication. Leading and lagging strands are complementary, antiparallel strands (one is 3'-5' while other is 5'-3- direction) which are replicated differently. The leading strand is replicated  continuously while the lagging strand is replicated in fragments-Okazaki fragments. Replication of both strands is performed by DNA polymerase.
