3 0

Answer:

Pyruvate is turned to lactate via a process called fermentation

Explanation:

Pyruvate is the product of the initial stage of cellular respiration called GLYCOLYSIS. Pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm where glycolysis occurs. The fate of pyruvate i.e. what will eventually happen to pyruvate, is determined by the presence or absence of oxygen.

In the absence of oxygen i.e. anaerobic condition, pyruvate is converted into lactate in a process called FERMENTATION. The NADH produced during glycolysis is reoxidized to form NAD+ in the process.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

A person's mass will be the same on Jupiter and Earth, a person's weight will be greater on Jupiter than on Earth.

Explanation:

Mass is universal, meaning it can't change, but weight is used to measure how heavy something is, so, on a planet like Jupiter, since the gravity is more, you'll weigh more there.

Atoms of a given element will have the same mass.
sergey [27]

Answer:

Atoms of the same chemical element do not always have the same mass because, although the number of protons in the nucleus is the same for all atoms of the same element, the number of neutrons is not. Most elements as they occur naturally on earth are mixtures of several isotopes.
