Answer:
Explanation:
The pH scale stands for the power or potential of hydrogen. It measures how acidic or basic a solution based on the concentration of hydrogen ions and a scale from 1 to 14.
This scale is unique because it is logarithmic. So, every time the pH changes by 1 on the scale, the actual concentration of the solution increases or decreases by a tenfold.
So, a solution with a pH of 7 is ten times more acidic than a solution with a pH of 8. This can be translated to:
The black coffee has a pH of 5 and the hand soap has a pH of 10. We want to find how many times more acidic coffee is, so we subtract 5 from 10 and get 5. The difference in pH is 5.
Coffee is <u>10⁵ or 100,000 times more acidic than hand soap.</u>
Answer: The correct option is E ( Intermediate filaments are unpolarized).
Explanation:
Intermediate Filaments are usually associated with cells that can withstand mechanical stress which includes claws of animals, hair and makes up the dead remnants of the epidermal cell of the skin. Therefore without the supporting network of intermediate filaments, an epithelium remains intact but the cells are prone to damage by abrasive forces.
Intermediate filaments are so named because they are thicker than actin filaments and thinner than microtubules or muscle myosin filaments
The properties or characteristics of an intermediate filaments that explains the lack of motor proteins is as a result of its subunits which are elongated, not globular and are associated in an anti-polar manner. Therefore, the overall filament has no polarity, and therefore no motor proteins move along intermediate filaments
