Write a scientific argument that addresses the question: Why is Jackie an elite distance runner when no one else

Chemistry
1 answer:
Travka [436]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A mutation in Jackie's genes culminated in developing a new enzyme, resulting in the long-distance running phenotype. Jackie appears to have either the A1Am or A2Am gene variants. Jackie used to play for long periods without tiring, suggesting that her gene variants could generate a protein that results in a stamina feature. Jackie's father bears the A1A2 gene. Since Jackie's mother is a good sprinter, I suspect she bears A1A1 gene variants. Sprinters have much ACTN3 protein in their cells, so that she may have two copies of the A1 gene variant. This means Jackie has at least one clone of the A1 gene allele. People with one or two versions of the A1 gene variant, on the other hand, are rarely successful long-distance runners. Out of 100 total distance runners, only 28 (25 and 3) have an A1 gene copy. Since the gene variants she may have inherited from her parents cannot justify her stamina, she may have a mutant gene version that contains a long-distance running protein. However, I do not believe she has AmAm gene versions because mutations are uncommon. Jackie is an elite long-distance runner due to a gene that no one else in her family has.

What is the minimum number of moles of potassium permanganate that would be required to completely oxidize 1.0 moles of benzalde
makvit [3.9K]
Mole ratio :

<span>5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>CHO + 2 KMnO</span>₄<span> + 6 H</span>⁺ <span>= 5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>COOH + 2 Mn</span>²⁺<span> + 3 H</span>₂<span>O + 2 K</span>⁺

5 moles C₆H₆CHO ------------------ 2 moles KMnO₄
1.0 moles C₆H₆CHO ---------------- ( moles of KMnO₄ )

moles of KMnO₄ = 1.0 x 2 / 5

moles of KMnO₄ = 2 / 5

= 0.40 moles of KMnO4

hope this helps!

The atmospheric pressure in Denver, Colorado, is usually about 84.00 kPa. What is this pressure in atm and torr units?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<u>84.00 kPa = 630.084 torr</u>

Formula for kPa to torr: For an approximate result, multiply the pressure value by 7.501. <em><u>84* 7.501</u></em>

<u>84.00 kPa = 0.831683168 atm</u>

Formula for kPa to atm: for an approximate result, divide the pressure value by 101. <em><u>84/101</u></em>

What is the volume of 220 grams of an object with a density of 55g/cm square
AnnyKZ [126]
I'm assuming that you meant 55 g/cm^3. Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}. This is the definition of density. If you rearrange this equation by multiplying each side of the equation by the volume, you get: (Density)(Volume)=Mass. Divide each side by the density to get: Volume=Mass/Density. Now just plug everything in:
V=220 (grams)/55 (grams/cm^3)=<u>4 cm^3</u>
