Answer:
The correct option is D
Explanation:
Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.
1.1kg = 1100g
If each paper clip is 0.88g : 1100 / 0.88 = 1250
1250 paper clips in the box
I would say that Niven would have to calculate the atomic weights of Mg and O and then the total weight of MgO to get the percent of oxygen and then that way get a proportionate amount of the 28 grams of oxygen required to bond with the Mg and then add together the weight of Mg which would be 28.0 grams plus the weight of oxygen.
