<h2>C) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Glomerular filtration is the process which kidneys uses to filter excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney, so that they may be eliminated from the body
  • The rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rate
  • The main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus, this is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)
  • The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure

¿Cuántos gramos de dióxido de carbono (CO2) se producen si se quema 40 gramos del hidrocarburo ( C3H8 )?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

120 gramos de CO₂

Explanation:

La ecuación química balanceada para la reacción de combustión del hidrocarburo C₃H₈ (propano) es la siguiente:

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Por lo tanto, 1 mol de C₃H₈ produce 3 moles de CO₂. Ahora debemos convertir las moles a gramos utilizando el peso molecular (PM) de cada compuesto:

PM(C₃H₈)= (3 x 12 g/mol) + (8 x 1 g/mol) = 44 g/mol

1 mol C₃H₈ = 1 mol x 44 g/mol = 44 g

PM(CO₂) = 12 g/mol + (16 g/mol x 2) = 44 g/mol

3 mol CO₂ = 3 mol x 44 g/mol = 132 g

Por lo tanto, se producen 132 gramos de CO₂ a partir de 44 gramos de C₃H₈ y la relación estequiométrica es:

3 mol CO₂/1 mol C₃H₈ = 132 g CO₂/44 g C₃H₈

Finalmente, para calcular cuántos gramos de CO₂ se producen al quemar 40 g de C₃H₈, multiplicamos la relación estequiométrica por la masa a quemar:

masa CO₂ producida = 40 g C₃H₈ x 132 g CO₂/44 g C₃H₈= 120 g

If a population of four o’clock flowers consists of five RR plants (red flowers), two Rr plants (pink flowers), and one rr plant
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: option B) 0.25

Explanation:

Total population of four o’clock flowers = 8

Number of red flowers with RR phenotype = 5

Number of pink flowers with Rr phenotype = 2

Number of white flower with rr phenotype = 1

To obtain the phenotype frequency of plants with pink flowers:

put the number or Rr phenotype OVER the total population of four o'clock plants

i.e 2/8

= 0.25

Therefore, 0.25 is the answer
