1. ASSERTION AND REASONING QUESTIONS:

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

1) B

2) A

3) A

4) D

Explanation:

An atom is neutral because it contains an equal number of protons and electrons. Though the atom actually contains neutrons, this reason does not explain the electrical neutrality of the atom.

The L shell actually contains eight electrons because the maximum number of electrons accommodated in each shell is given by 2n^2 where n is the principal quantum number. Since the L-shell corresponds to n=2 then the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

The valency of atoms is determined by the number of electrons in the outermost shell of the atom. Remember that atoms having a filed valence shell(eight electrons in the outermost shell) have a valency of zero. Hence the noble gases possess a zero valency. Thus the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Nitrogen forms its ion by electron gain and not by electron loss because nitrogen forms an anion. This anion is formed by a gain of three electrons. The assertion is false but the reason is true.

Consider a scenario where a person eats a cupcake composed of glucose molecules. The person has digested the cupcake, and the gl
kupik [55]

Answer: a.b.c-true.

              d-false.

a. Some of the energy stored in glucose will eventually be transformed into heat.

This is through  the process of Glycolysis (and Krebs's cycle )where the Carbon atoms in the glucose(substrate level phosphorylation) undergo metabolism with the liberation of ATPs as  heat during  metabolisms. The glucose serves as the substrate for the generation of heat.However,largest amount of ATP's  is expended as heat during oxidative phosphorylation,due to the glucose used as substrate in preceding stages of glycolysis and Kreb Cycle.

b. Carbon atoms from glucose could be exhaled by the person as carbon dioxide.

Yes, this is through glycoylsis and kreb's Cycle where  CO2 is given off as during metabolisms as one compound change from one form to another.E.g from Citric acid(6C) to Succinate(5C),some Carbon atoms are lost as C02. Like during glycolysis.

C. Carbon atoms from glucose could later be found in a plant cell.Yes this is because  the CO2 expired  by human could be trapped by green plants and react with water in the presence of sunlight trapped by chlorophyll to form carbohydrate in plants.This is photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Carbon can't not be converted to oxygen,big FALSE.
