Answer:

Mitochondria

Explanation:

Glucose in an energy molecule contained in carbohydrate food substances. The end product of the digestion of carbohydrate is glucose which is broken down to produce energy.

The sequence of breakdown of glucose is as follows; In the first step, 6-carbon glucose is broken down into two molecules of  3-carbon pyruvic acid. This occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. It is an anaerobic process.

In the second step which occurs in the mitochondrion, each of the molecules of pyruvic acid is now oxidized to carbon dioxide and water and energy is produced in the process.

Identify the product of radioactive decay and classify the given nuclear reactions accordingly.
marta [7]

Answer:  a)   _{88}^{234}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{86}^{230}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

b)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

c)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

 d) _{6}^{14}\textrm{C}\rightarrow _{7}^{14}\textrm{N}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

e) _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}\rightarrow _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}+_{0}^{0}{\gamma}

Explanation:

A balanced nuclear equation is one in which the atomic number and mass number remains same on both sides of the equation i.e the number of protons and neutrons remain same.

General representation of an element is given as:  

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

a) _{88}^{234}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{86}^{230}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

b)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

c)  _{94}^{242}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

 d)   _{6}^{14}\textrm{C}\rightarrow _{7}^{14}\textrm{N}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

e)   _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}\rightarrow _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}+_{0}^{0}{\gamma}
