Bicarbonate buffer system in blood consists of carbonic acid and bicarbonate ion. H2CO3/HCO3-
When a base enters the body the acid part of the buffer reacts with the base.
Thats the carbonic acid (H2CO3) reacts with the base.
Answer/Explanation
Characteristics of Life Present in Viruses:
- has a defined boundary - viruses are made up simply of genetic material surrounded by a<u> protein capsid </u>and sometimes a lipid membrane
Characteristics of Life Absent in Viruses:
- made up of one or more cells - one of the main arguments for why viruses are not living is that they are <u>not cellular</u>
- uses energy - this is a tricky one. They don't use or produce their own energy. However, in order to reproduce they do hijack the host cells and <u>steal energy</u> from them in order to reproduce
- exhibits growth and development - although viruses do <u>reproduce</u>, the individual viral particles do not exhibit growth or development
- possess internal organisation - other than the fact they ahve genetic material, the inside of a virus does not contain internal organization like a cytosol, instead conssiting of the bare minimum amount of proteins to survive
- eliminates waste - since they do not have their own metabolism, they have no waste to eliminate
Solute - the substance that dissolves into the solvent to produce a homogenous mixture
Solvent - the substance in which a solute dissolves to produce a homogeneous mixture
They are in order according to their atomic number, so the position should tell you the atomic number.
Answer: Yes it is. Rust would be considered a chemical reaction because it changes the chemical makeup of the metal.
