Which characteristic is a behavior adaptation in birds?

Phosphagens are a group of molecules that includes creatine phosphate (in vertebrates), and arginine phosphate, lombricine, and

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Phosphagen provides the needed energy for the muscle tissues which can not be immediately supplied by glycolysis or oxidative phosphorylation. They supply immediate but limited energy as sudden demands for lots of energy by the muscle tissues arise.

Explanation:

Phosphagens are high energy storage compounds majorly found in muscular tissue of animals.

They allow maintenance of the high energy phosphate stores in its normal concentration ranges which discard the problems associated with ATP-consuming reactions in these tissues as against the presence of adenosine triphosphate.

The muscle tissues are actively working and need constant supply of energy and the energy produced by glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation might not sum up to the needs of the tissues. So therefore, phosphagens serve as a stand by mechanism for energy production for the tissues mostly during sustained muscle activity.

The man, the muscle cells' phosphocreatinine concentration is more than three times the concentration of ATP and represent a ready reserve of high energy phosphate that can be donated directly to Adenosine diphosohate to release energy.

Different organisms use different biomolecule as a phosphagen. Majority of animals use arginine as their phosphagen, chordates use creatinine, annelids use lombricine.

They all perform these similar functions described above.

Sulfur reacts with oxygen and creates two compounds. Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen. Compound B

spayn [35]

Answer:

The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2

Explanation:

According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.

Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen

$\frac{1.34}{0.86}= 1.5$

Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen

$\frac{11.643}{10.49}= 1.0$

Ratio of oxygen in each compound

always put the larger number over the smaller number.

$\frac{CompoundA}{Compound B}=\frac{1.5}{1.0}=\frac{3}{2}$

1. Pure substances cannot be separated into any other kinds of matter, while a mixture is a combination of two or more pure substances.

2. A pure substance has constant physical and chemical properties, while mixtures have varying physical and chemical properties (i.e., boiling point and melting point).

3. A pure substance is pure, while a mixture is impure.

tekilochka [14]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In each row check off the boxes that apply to the underlined reactant. The underlined reactant acts as a... (check all that apply)

1. $HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq)+NH_4^+(aq)$

here underlined is $HCH_3CO_2$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

2. $BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)$

Here underlined is $NH_3$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

3. $HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)$

Here underlined is $C_2H_5NH_2$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

Answer: 1. Brønsted-Lowry acid

2. Lewis base

3. Brønsted-Lowry base

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

1. $HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CO^{2-}(aq)+NH_4^+aq)$

As $HCH_3CO_2(aq)$ is donating a proton , it acts as a bronsted acid.

2. $BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)$

As $NH_3$ contains a lone pair of electron on nitrogen , it can easily donate electrons to $BH_3$ and act as lewi base.

3. $HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)$

As $C_2H_5NH_2(aq)$ is accepting a proton , it acts as a bronsted base.
