The block shown above is a cube of halite. Each side measures 3 cm. Then the volume of the cube of halite is 27 cm³.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Step 1:
All the sides of the cubes are equal.
Step 2:
Given,
a= 3 cm
Step 3:
Volume of the cube = a³
= 3 × 3 × 3
= 27 cm³
Hence, The volume of the cube is 27 cm³
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
All these carbon atoms are isotopes: they have the same amount of protons (in this case, 6 because carbon always has 6 protons) and the same amount of electrons (6 because the carbons given have a neutral charge).
Therefore, the only thing we are changing is the atomic mass and the amount of neutrons present in each isotope.
In Carbon-12, there are 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons.
In Carbon-13, there are 6 protons, 7 neutrons, and 6 electrons.
In Carbon-14, there are 6 protons, 8 neutrons, and 6 electrons.
<span>The answer is smooth endoplasmatic reticulum. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the production and metabolism of lipids and in the production of steroid hormones. Also, smooth endoplasmic reticulum converts organic chemicals to water-soluble products and that way detoxifies them.</span>
Answer:
A- A pH change can cause the enzyme to change its shape
Explanation:
A rise or fall in the pH of the medium from the optimum of pH 7 usually affect the enzymes' active sites of and therefore the shape and the rate of enzyme activity.
Assuming the pH is too low, the enzyme medium becomes acidic;Acidosis. The high Hydrogen ions concentration interacts with the R-groups of the amino acids moiety of the enzymes, this interaction affects the ionization of the R-groups, disrupting the ionic bonding holding these R-groups in shape.
This results in loss of the 3-Dimensional shape arrangements of the protein molecule and therefore of the active sites. Since active sites of enzymes determines the specificity of the <u>enzymes substrate- complex </u> to give <u>enzyme-product complex,</u> the catalytic activity of the enzymes decreases, <u>the rate of reaction decreases,and products formation stops, and the reaction also stops.</u>
The same is applicable to extremely high pH=Alkalosis.
However, the effective buffer system of the body prevents this scenarios from happening in real sense in the body. Through mopping by the haemoglobin, excretion by the kidney, etc
