The Periodic Law
Dmitri Mendeleev developed own periodic law with atomic number as the basis for the arrangement. The Periodic Law, also known as "Mendeleev's Law" states, " When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic mass, certain sets of properties recur periodically." It also describes the properties of the elements as periodic functions of their atomic weights.
Answer:
Explanation:
Gluconeogenesis and glycolysis are coordinated so that within a cell one pathway is relatively inactive while the other is highly active. If both sets of reactions were highly active at the same time, the net result would be the hydrolysis of four nucleotide triphosphates (two ATP plus two GTP) per reaction cycle. Both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are highly exergonic under cellular conditions, and so there is no thermodynamic barrier to such simultaneous activity. However, the amounts and activities of the distinctive enzymes of each pathway are controlled so that both pathways are not highly active at the same time. The rate of glycolysis is also determined by the concentration of glucose, and the rate of gluconeogenesis by the concentrations of lactate and other precursors of glucose.
The interconversion of fructose 6-phosphate and fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is stringently controlled (Figure 16.30). As discussed in Section 16.2.1, AMP stimulates phosphofructokinase, whereas ATP and citrate inhibit it. Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, on the other hand, is inhibited by AMP and activated by citrate. A high level of AMP indicates that the energy charge is low and signals the need for ATP generation. Conversely, high levels of ATP and citrate indicate that the energy charge is high and that biosynthetic intermediates are abundant. Under these conditions, glycolysis is nearly switched off and gluconeogenesis is promoted.
Answer:
3 hydrogen bonds.
Explanation:
This is because the urea molecule has an oxygen atom bound with double bonds to the central carbon atom, and this oxygen can form a hydrogen bond with water, as well as both terminal amine groups that can also form a hydrogen bond each because of the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen group.
Answer:
A Valence electron are the electrons in the outermost shell or energy level of an atom.
