<em>Hardness is a measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied</em> <em>Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by</em> <em>strong intermolecular bonds</em>, <em>but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore,</em> <em>there are different measurements of hardness</em>: <em>scratch hardness, indentation hardness, and rebound hardness. Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and viscosity. Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete, certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be contrasted with soft matter.</em>

Explain how we theoretically get 32 atp molecules per glucose oxidized in the liver, but only 30 atp molecules per glucose oxidi
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

During the oxidation of glucose in the liver the malate aspartate shuttle system is used, therefore, two additional ATPs get generated at the step constituting glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.  

On the other hand, in the brain, a cell uses the glycerol phosphate shuttle system, which generates two less number of ATPs. However, the remaining of the energetics for the number of ATP in both cases are similar.  

Thus, the difference is based upon the kind of shuttle system used that leads to the production of 32 ATPs in liver cells and 30 ATPs in the brain cells.

Sauron [17]
A pedigree shows the genotypes of the family members 
in autosomal recessive disorders, the diseased genes are inherited from the parents. For the person to get the disease both diseased genes should be there in the genotype as its a recessive disorder.
the dominant gene - H
   recessive gene    - h
for a person to get a disease, genotype should be hh, as its autosomal recessive. If the person is normal he/ she could have the genotype HH or could be Hh and thats called a carrier.
the offspring will receive one gene from the mother and one from the father
