Answer: An increase in the ratio of insulin to glucagon will increase the activity of --
- Acetyl-CoA carboxylase(+)
-Phosphofructokinase PFK2(+)
-Glycogen synthase(+)
- Hormone sensitive lipase (-). The hormone sensitive lipase activity is not increased with increased insulin activity.
Explanation: increased insulin - glucagon ratio is usually high in fed state.Insulin helps the cells absorb glucose, reducing blood sugar and providing the cells with glucose for energy. When blood sugar levels are too low, the pancreas releases glucagon. Glucagon instructs the liver to release stored glucose, which causes blood sugar to rise.
In a titration, for an acid to neutralize a base, at the equivalence point, there should be an equal number of moles of H+ and OH-.
Moles of OH- can be found by multiplying the concentration of the base by the volume. (You will need to keep in mind the stoichimetric coefficients if the strong base is Ca(OH)₂, Ba(OH)₂, or Sr(OH)₂.
Moles of OH- = moles of H+
(0.253 M) * 0.005 L = 0.01000 L * c
c = 0.1265 M
The concentration of HBr is 0.127 M.
Answer: The Answer is C.
Explanation: The Nucleus only makes up less than .01% of the volume of the Atom. The Nucleus does contain more than 99.9% of the mass of the Atom. I hope that this helps you! Good luck!
Answer : A metal atom loses electrons from its outermost energy level and acquires a Positive Charge. These electrons join a nonmetal atom. The ionic compound formed because of this transfer of electrons is electrically Neutral.
Explanation :
All the elements try to acquire octet state by gaining or losing electrons. For metals, the number of valence electrons are less and it is easier to lose these electrons.
When electrons are lost, the number of protons become more than the electrons. This creates an excess of positive charge. As a result the species becomes positively charged and is known as cation.
During formation of ionic bond, metals always form a positive ion (cation) by losing electrons. These electrons are accepted by the nonmetals and they become negatively charged. A negatively charged ion is known as anion and nonmetals always form an anion.
These are attracted to each other due to the opposite charges present on them. In an ionic compound they balance the charges on each other making the compound neutral.
From the above discussion, we can fill in the blanks as follows.
A metal atom loses electrons from its outermost energy level and acquires a Positive Charge. These electrons join a nonmetal atom. The ionic compound formed because of this transfer of electrons is electrically Neutral.
