. Guillermo was finding it difficult to walk up the steps to his family’s apartment. His doctor thinks that his cells might not

be getting enough oxygen or glucose. Which body systems should the doctor test in order to find out whether Guillermo’s cells are getting enough oxygen and glucose and why? (Sentence starter: The body systems Guillermo should have tested are .

Answer:

Because oxygen is the combustion  fuel and glucose  is the substrate needed for synthesis of energy as ATPs during cellular respiration.Therefore Guillermo lacks enough energy as ATPs in her  body cells, especially skeletal muscles cells to complete the task of ascending the s steps.

For all the mitochondrial in cells(sites of energy production)   to receive needed glucose,and other metabolites needed for  energy synthesis; an efficient transport system is needed, so that  these materials   are available  immediately, in required amount. This system is called circulatory system.

And for the the supply of combustion fuel (oxygen) needed for the completion of the ATP synthesis mechanisms;  respiratory systems which  convey oxygen from the external environments to the circulatory system through breathing mechanisms, for distribution is needed.

Thus the  doctor needs to test both the circulatory and respiratory systems.

Looking at the Periodic Table, how can you determine if an element is a metal, metalloid or nonmetal?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

It depends on where it's located on the periodic table.

Explanation:

Metals are on left side of the periodic table except Hydrogen (H), which is a nonmetal, then there's the staircase, which has the metalloids, and on the right of the staircase are the nonmetals.

An unknown compound, X is thought to have a carboxyl group with a pKa of 2.0 and another ionizable group with a pKa between 5 an
Westkost [7]

Answer:

7.3

Explanation:

By Henderson Hasselbalch equation we can calculate the pH or the pOH of a solution by its pKa. Remember that pH = -log[H^{+}], and pKa = -logKa. Ka is the equilibrium constant of the acid.

Henderson Hasselbalch equation :

pH = pKa - log \frac{[HA]}{[A^{-}]}

Where [HA] is the concentration of the acid, and [A^{-}] is the concentration of the anion which forms the acid.

So, acid X, has two ionic forms, the carboxyl group and the other one. First, we have 0.1 mol/L of the acid, in 100 mL, so the number of moles of X

n1 = (0.1 mol/L)x(0.1 L) = 0.01 mol

When it dissociates, it forms 0.005 mol of the carboxyl group and 0.005 mol of the other group. Assuming same  stoichiometry.

Adding NaOH, with 0.1 mol/L and 75 mL, the number of moles of OH^- will be

n2 = (0.1 mol/L)x(0.075 L) = 0.0075 mol

So, the 0.0075 mol of OH^- reacts with 0.005 mol of carboxyl, remaining 0.0025 mol of OH^-, which will react with the 0.005 mol of the other group. So, it will remain 0.0025 mol of the other group.

The final volume of the solution will be 175 mL, but both concentrations (the acid form and ionic form) have the same volume, so we can use the number of mol in the equation.

Note that, the number of moles of the acid form is still 0.01 mol because it doesn't react!

So,

6.72 = pKa - log \frac{0.01}{0.0025}

6.72 = pKa - log 4

pKa - log4 = 6.72

pKa = 6.72 + log4

pKa = 6.72 + 0.6

pKa = 7.3

What law is known as the law of action-<br> reaction?
Molodets [167]

Law of Action and Reaction mean "To every action there is equal and opposite reaction.

Explanation:

It is Newtons third law which explained few  things such as :-

1. The nature of the forces between the two interacting objects.

2. According to this law , the force that is exerted from Object-1 to Object-2 is said to be equal in magnitude and opposite to the direction to the force exerted to object 2 upon object 1.

3. Eaxmple - As we push against the wall - Action , the wall in return opposes equal force to resist the pressure of the hand - Reaction.
