Answer:

The correct answer is a. There is an increase in the number of collisions between particles and the walls of the container.

Explanation:

Gas molecules in a container collide with each other and with the wall of the container. Whenever a molecule of gas collides with the wall of the container it exerts certain force on the wall and pressure is the sum of all the forces applied on the wall of container by gas particles.

So if more gas is added in the container then more gas particles will exert force on the wall of the container and more number of collisions will occur which will increase the pressure inside the container.

Therefore the correct answer is a. There is an increase in the number of collisions between particles and the walls of the container.

The use of arsenate instead of phosphate by glyceraldehyde 3‑phosphate dehydrogenase produces 1‑arseno‑3‑phosphoglycerate, which
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

In glycolysis, the generation of ATP takes place at the time of the transformation of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate and at the time of the transformation of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate. However, when arsenate is used in place of phosphate it results in the generation of 1-arseno-3-phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate that further gets dissociated into 3-phosphoglycerate without generating any ATP.  

However, in the process, the transformation of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate does not get hampered, and therefore, the reaction will produce two ATP from one glucose. Although at the time of the preparatory phase of glycolysis, two ATPs are used that signifies that the net gain of ATP will be zero.

To find the speed of waves, use this formula!

V = frequency x wavelength
(V is a unit for speed)

Plug in your numbers!

V = 3.7 x 8.4
V = 31.08 m/s

*m/s is meters per second.

How is the structure of the phospholipid so perfectly paired to the function of the cell membrane?
FrozenT [24]
The phospholipid molecule is both hydrophilic and hydrophobic which allows it to organize into a bilayer with the hydrophobic tales tucked away and the hydrophilic head exterior. This bilayer is also semipermeable allowing some small molecules in for the cell to use
