You have used 2.4×102 L of distilled water for a dialysis patient. How many gallons of water is that?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

63.36gallons

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of water used for dialysis = 2.4 x 10²L

Solution:

We are to convert from liters to gallons.

The conversion factor is shown below:

                1L = 0.264gallons

To convert to litre:

       since 1L = 0.264gallons

             2.4 x 10²L = (2.4 x 10² x 0.264)gallons; 63.36gallons

A 2.1−mL volume of seawater contains about 4.0 × 10−10 g of gold. The total volume of ocean water is about 1.5 × 1021 L. Calcula
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Total worth of gold in the ocean = $5,840,000,000,000,000

Explanation:

As stated in the question above, 4.0 x 10^-10 g of gold was present in 2.1mL of ocean water.

Therefore, In 1 L of ocean water there will be,

(4.0 x 10^-10)/0.0021

= 1.9045 x 10^-7 g of gold per Liter of ocean water.

So in 1.5 x 10^-21 L of ocean water, there will be

(1.9045 x 10^-7) * (1.5 x 10^-21)

= 2.857 x 10^14 g of gold in the ocean.

1 gram of gold costs $20.44, that is 20.44 dollars/gram. The total cost of the gold present in the ocean is

20.44 * (2.857 x 10^14)

= $5,840,000,000,000,000

_____ Contains hydrolytic enzymes associated with the intracellular digestion of macromolecules
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Lysosome contains hydrolytic enzymes associated with the intracellular digestion of macromolecules.

Explanation:

Lysosome is found in all types of eukaryotic cells, and it is responsible for the digestion of old cell parts, micro-organism and macromolecules. Lysosome is surrounded by a membrane which maintains the interior acidic environment with the help of proton pump.

Lysosome contains unique membrane proteins and wide variety of hydrolytic enzymes such as acid hydrolyses that are helping in the breakdown of macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acid and polysaccharides). Lysosome acid dependent activity helping to protect the cell from self degradation in the situation of lysosomal rupture or leakage, while the pH of the cell is neutral to slightly alkaline.
