Sidana [21]3 years ago

Carbon fixation is the process of conversion in which carbon-dioxide (inorganic carbon) converts into organic compounds with the help of living organisms and example of this process is photosynthesis.

From the definition, it is confirmed that there is no formation of carbon dioxide takes place i.e. carbon doesn't joined with oxygen molecules.

Thus, carbon fixation is the process in which carbon atoms are added to the molecules of hydrogen and oxygen to make carbohydrates.

Consider an electron with charge −e−e and mass mmm orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with cha
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The net force on electron is electrostatic force between electron and proton in the nucleus .

Fc = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \times \frac{e\times e}{r^2}

This provides the centripetal force for the circular path of electron around the nucleus .

Centripetal force required = \frac{m\times v^2}{r}

So

\frac{m\times v^2}{r}=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \times \frac{e\times e}{r^2}

v^2=\frac{e^2}{4\pi \epsilon m r}

v=(\frac{e^2}{4\pi \epsilon m r})^{\frac{1}{2} }

If an atom has an atomic number of 6 and and abdomens mass of 12 how many electrons does it have
Basile [38]
Atomic number refers to the proton number of the atom itself. Number of electrons in an atom (an atom that is not reacted with any other molecules / Just the atom alone), is the same as the number of protons, because each electron has 1 negative charge, and each proton 1 positive charge, where they cancel out on each other to become a neutral charge.

So, when atomic number is 6, proton number is also 6, and number of electrons will also be 6 in that atom.

Hope this helps! :)

ikadub [295]
Cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP are part of almost all major cellular signaling pathways. Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate the intracellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Protein kinase A or cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediates most cAMP effects in the cell. Over the last 25 years, various components of this group of molecules have been involved in human diseases, both genetic and acquired. Lately, the PDEs attract more attention. The pharmacological exploitation of the PDE’s ability to regulate cGMP and cAMP, and through them, a variety of signaling pathways, has led to a number of new drugs for diverse applications from the treatment of erectile dysfunction to heart failure, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We present the abstracts (available online) and selected articles from the proceedings of a meeting that took place at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, MD, June 8–10, 2011.
