Answer:
a) 0.56moles
b) 2.78moles
Explanation:
The number of moles can be calculated by using the formula;
Mole (n) = Mass (M) ÷ Molar mass (MM)
For a glucose molecule, with chemical formula: C6H12O6
Where atomic mass of C= 12, H=1, O= 16
Molar mass of C6H12O6= 12(6) + 1(12) + 16(6)
= 72 + 12 + 96
= 180g/mol
a) In 100g of glucose;
Mole = 100/180
Mole = 0.56moles
b) In 500g of glucose
Mole = 500/180
Mole = 2.78moles
Answer:
a. Centromere
A centromere is a specialised DNA sequence of a chromosome that links pair of sister chromarids (a dyad)

Diploidy
Explanation:
Contains 2 sets of chromosomes.
Answer:
disruptive selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection may be defined as a type of a natural selection which selects against some average individual in a given population. These makeup of such a type of the population shows the phenotypes of both the extremes of characteristics but they have very few individuals in the middle.
Disruptive selection is also known as diversifying selection.
In the given context, the beaks of an African seedcracker finches may be small or may be large but they are not of the intermediate size. Such a selection is known as disruptive selection in species.
Answer:
A) Faster blood flow: A faster blood flow means the heart pumps blood with more power. Pumping blood to fast for too long can damage the heart muscle and interfere with its normal electrical signals, which can result in a dangerous heart rhythm disorder.
B) Infection: infection is caused by invasion of the body by external microorganisms. Disease can arise if the host's protective immune mechanisms are compromised and the organism inflicts damage on the host.
C) vomiting: This is an involuntary, forced expulsion of stomach contents usually through the mouth or nose. Body's reaction can be aspiration, electrolyte and water loss, damage to the enamel of the teeth, tear of the esophageal mucosa etc.
D) High blood pressure: This is due to the heart pumping blood at high pressure putting a strain on the walls of the blood vessels. In some cases, people with high blood pressure may have a pounding feeling in their head or chest, a feeling of lightheadedness or dizziness, or other signs.
