The particles cannot move around at all. The particles are, however, still in motion.
<span>A solution with a pH of 4 has ten times the concentration of H</span>⁺<span> present compared to a solution with a pH of 5.
</span>pH <span>is a numeric scale for the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It is the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the molar concentration of hydrogen ions.
</span>[H⁺] = 10∧-pH.
pH = 4 → [H⁺]₁ = 10⁻⁴ M = 0,0001 M.
pH = 5 → [H⁺]₂ = 10⁻⁵ M = 0,00001 M.
[H⁺]₁ / [H⁺]₂ = 0,0001 M / 0,00001 M.
[H⁺]₁ / [H⁺]₂ = 10.
Answer:
1. C- Three.
2. A- Methionine
3. D- Translocation.
4. C- OH.
5. A - 5'
6. A - 3' carbon
7. A. adenine and guanine
Explanation:
1. A codon is a group of three nucleotide sequence that encodes or specifies an amino acid. This means that, during translation (second stage of gene expression), when a CODON is read, an amino acid is added to the growing peptide chain.
2. The codon that initiates the translation process is called a start codon. It has a sequence: AUG and it specifies Methionine amino acid. Hence, during translation where a tRNA binds to the mRNA codon to read it and add its corresponding amino acid, a tRNA with a complementary sequence of AUG (start codon) binds to it and carries Methionine amino acid.
3. Translocation is a process during translation whereby the mRNA-tRNA moeity moves forward in the ribosome to allow another codon to move into the vacant site for translation process to continue.
4. The sugar component of a nucelotide that makes up the nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) i.e. ribose or deoxyribose, contains an hydroxyll functional group (-OH).
5. A nucleotide consists of a pentose (five carbon) sugar, phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The phosphate group (PO43-) is attached to the 5' carbon of the sugar molecule.
6. The free hydroxyll group (-OH) of the five carbon sugar molecule in DNA is attached to its 3' carbon.
7. Nitrogenous bases are the third component of a nucleotide, the other two being pentose sugar and phosphate group. The nitrogenous bases are four viz: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. These bases are classified into Purines and Pyrimidines based on the similarity in their structure. Adenine (A) and Guanine (G) are Purines because they possess have two carbon-nitrogen rings, as opposed to one possessed by Pyrimidines (Thymine and Cytosine).
The combination of seatbelts and airbags can reduce the risk of death in a collision by up to 80%.
The seatbelts help to keep the person in one position and prevent impact with the vehicle as the vehicle comes to a sudden stop. Moreover, the airbag increases the time of collision to reduce the impact experienced by the person. An increased time of collision greatly reduces the damage that is done to the body.
