Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Weathering is usually defined as the disintegration of rocks at the surface of the earth. This break down of rocks is mainly caused by the geological processes that occur on the earth's surface. This process results in the formation of sediments that are transported and deposited in a new environment.

This weathering process primarily takes place in three different ways such as-

  • Physical weathering- Here, the rocks are broken down by the physical agents such as wind, water, ice.
  • Chemical weathering- Here the rocks are broken down when interacts with the chemical containing water.
  • Biological weathering- here, the rocks are broken down due to the activities done by organisms such as plants and animals.

In the given condition, Quincy can see a real example of rock weathering in the high mountainous region, as in the mountainous region the rocks are frequently weathered and eroded by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

The concentration of a biomolecule inside a rod‑shaped prokaryotic cell is 0.0035 M . Calculate the number of molecules inside t
timama [110]

Answer: This rod-shape prokaryotic cell has 3.740,734725‬ molecules

Explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u> given data

Molarity of the prokaryotic cell = 0.0035 M

Length of the cell = 4.2 μm = 4.2 * 10^-6 m

diameter of the cell = 1.3 μm = 1.3 * 10^-6 m

<u>Step 2: </u>calculate volume

To calculate volume of a rod, weneef to know the radius.

V = r ² × l

The radius = half of the diameter : r = d/2 ⇒ (1.3 * 10^-6 m)/2 = 0.65 * 10^-6 m

V= (0.65 * 10^-6 m)² * 4.2 * 10^-6 m = 1.7745 * 10 ^-18 L

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculating number of moles

Number of moles = Concentration * Volume

moles = 0.0035 M * 1.7745 * 10 ^-18 L = 6.21075 * 10^-21 moles‬

<u>Step 4:</u> calculating number of molecules

1 mole contains 6.023 * 10 ^-23 molecules

6.21075 * 10^-21 moles contain : 6.21075 * 10^-21 * 6.023 * 10 ^-23 molecules = 3.740,734725‬ molecules

This rod-shape prokaryotic cell has 3.740,734725‬ molecules
