a correct statement.

Gwar [14]3 years ago

Answer:

False

"The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".

Explanation:

The food we eat undoubtedly contains energy. This energy is stored in the bonds of the molecules that make up the food. However, the food undergoes the process of digestion to yield glucose (a sugar). This glucose sugar is used in the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION to synthesize a form of chemical energy usable by cells called ATP.

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate is a molecule that stores chemical energy in living cells. It is the molecule that directly powers all of our cellular activities. Hence, the statement in this question is FALSE. The correct statement should be "The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".

Select the correct answer.<br> Which image best represents kinetic energy?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

PLEASE PLEASE ANSWER FAST PLEASE
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The most common myths are:

- C0vid2019 vaccines cause autism  

- C0vid2019 vaccines may modify your DNA

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe

Explanation:

The most common myths associated with C0vid2019 vaccines are:  

1- C0vid2019 vaccines may cause autism: In 1998, Andrew Wakefield and colleagues published a controversial study in the Lancet where they suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine may cause autism in some children. However, it has been showed that this study was based on erroneous statements and therefore this publication was retracted.

2- C0vid2019 vaccine may modify your DNA: it has been suggested that vaccines based on viral vectors (e.g. adenoviruses) and mRNA vaccines may modify the DNA of cells. This statement is false because these technologies cannot alter the DNA sequence. These vaccines are based on the production of an mRNA sequence that is translated into a viral protein (spike protein) which triggers an immune response

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe: some people believe that C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe because they were developed quickly. However, this statement is false because all vaccines (including C0vid2019 vaccines) need to follow rigorous safety standards to be approved by governmental agencies (i.e., they approved all clinical trials).
