Explain how the digestive/excretory system is similar to a recycling center

Chemistry
1 answer:
CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The digestive system is a system where our body breaks down food to acquire important nutrients. This is the same as your local recycling center because they collect and breaks the plastic down to be reused into recycled products.

The excretory system is a system where we remove excess unnecessary materials. This can be the same as the recycling center because they remove unnecessary materials (such as trash that is not meant to be recycled).

Carbon dioxide and water react to form bicarbonate ion and hydronium ion. Hyperventilation (rapid breathing) causes more carbon
Juliette [100K]
Hyperventilation<span> will blow off carbon dioxide which reduces the alkaline component of the </span>blood<span>, resulting in acidosis and a lower </span>blood pH<span>. (See Andromeda Strain). This is why re-breathing into a bag to increase carbon dioxide in your </span>blood will make you feel less faint. Basically <span>It increases the pH ... you can look at CO2 as an acid ... and when reduced ... alkalinization of the pH occurs</span>

What is the empirical formula of ascorbic acid, given that the pseudoformula is C3.407 H4.53 O3.406??
Tom [10]
To determine the empirical formula of ascorbic acid, we divide the lowest fraction with the other values. For this case, we divide everything with 3.406. We do as follows:

C = 3.407 / 3.406 = 1
H = 4.53 / 3.406 = 1.33
O = 3.406 / 3.406 = 1

So, you have CHO

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Name some ways that friction can be helpful and some ways it is harmful?
jeka57 [31]
Friction is helpful:
- We use it to brake for cars
- We use it to fly planes
-We wouldn't be able to turn a door knob without friction ( Our hand would just slide off it)

Friction harmful:
-Our cars would get much better gas mileage without tire and air friction
- There would be no skinned knees if friction didn't exist (Like when your skating or football)
- We could do some pretty cool dance moves without friction
- Our shoes would last longer without friction

During beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ___________ is produced in peroxisomes but not in mitochondria. A) acetyl-CoA B) FADH 2 C)
stepan [7]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.
