A 7-month-old girl is to be catheterized so a sterile urine specimen may be obtained. one of the infant's parents expresses fear

The 7-month-old infant is accustomed to having the perineal area exposed and cared for and is not in a developmental stage in which fears related to sexuality are present. A "clean catch" at this age is often contaminated; therefore catheterization has been prescribed. The parents do have the right to refuse, but this concern is not realistic an infant of this age. The parent's concern is not appropriate for the developmental age of the infant.

Explanation:

D. E: photosynthesis; D: cellular respiration

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy in the form of molecules of glucose is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide while oxygen is released. This occurs in several complex steps, photosynthesis is a rate limited reaction, depends on several factors including carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity; the energy is retrieved from photons, I.e. particles of light, and water is used as a reducing agent.

In the light reactions, occuring within the thykaloid, and stroma of the chloroplasts, water supplies the pigment chlorophyll with replacement electrons for the ones removed from photosystem II. Additionally, water (H2O) split by light during photolysis into H+ and OH- acts as a source of oxygen along with functioning as a reducing agent; it reduces the molecule NADP to NADPH by providing H+ ions. NADP and NADPH are integral to the dark reactions, or Calvin cycle where monosaccharides or sugars like glucose are produced after the modification of several molecules.

Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’s cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate (through the process of glycoysis). The electron transport chain, in which oxygen functions as the terminal electron acceptor, occurs in both plants and animals. Respiration includes:

  • Glycolysis: occurs in the cytoplasm 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules.
  • The Kreb's cycle: in the mitochondrial matrix- 6 molecules of CO2 are produced by combining oxygen and the carbon within pyruvate, 2 ATP oxygen molecules, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2.
  • The electron transport chain, ETC: in the inner mitochondrial membrane, 34 ATP, electrons combine with H+ split from 10 NADH, 4 FADH2, renewing the number of electron acceptors and 3 oxygen; this forms 6 H2O, 10 NAD+, 4 FAD.

Can someone please explain why the answer is D? Thank you!
Pepsi [2]

Enzyme deactivation which is called denaturization is when an enzyme's physical structure is changed due to either high pH, or temperature. If enzymes convert the sugar to starch and make the corn less sweet, then boiling the enzymes will cause them to deactivate, which doesn't allow them to convert the sugar into starch. Therefore, the corn will remain sweeter.


Consider that when the enzyme is heated that its physical structure changes, meaning that it may not be able to fit the sugar molecule in its activation site. Meaning that the sugar can no longer bind to the enzyme to create starch, which again leaves it sweeter.


*activation site - site where the substrate (sugar) bonds to the enzyme in order for a chemical change to occur to the substrate.

Several eggs are immersed in salt solution for two weeks. Suggest why the eggs are still rotten?
krok68 [10]

Explanation:

the eggs seems to be rotten because when we add enough salt into water the density of water becomes greater than that of egg ,hence the floats and seems to be rotten
