Answer:
Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>
Explanation:
Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.
Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease. This implies that body's immune system fights against itself & mistakenly damages its own tissues. So, these diseases have a huge bearing on body joints components. Eg : Lupus , Arthritis are common collagen vascular diseases. Arthritis mostly affects adults above 30 years of age, lupus can be diagnosed in younger people above 15 years of age also.
Answer:
The Third Law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a pure substance in a perfect crystalline state at zero temperature is zero.
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
In this case, we have the equilibrium reaction which is:
H₂ + I₂ <------> 2HI Kp = 54
Now, we have the partial pressures of each element in equilibrium, therefore, we can use the expression of equilibrium in this case to calculate the remaining pressure:
Kp = PpHI² / PpH₂ * PpI₂
Solving for the partial pressure of iodine:
PpI₂ = PpHI² / PpH₂ * Kp
Replacing the given values, we have:
PpI₂ = (2.1)² / 0.933 * 54
PpI₂ = 4.41 / 50.382
PpI₂ = 0.088 atm
Answer:
3
Explanation:
In scientific notation, the number of integers in the first part will always be the amount of significant figures.
For example,
1) 1.542505 x 10^17 =7 significant figures
1) 1.54 x 10^17 =3 significant figures
