<h3><u>Required </u><u>Answers</u><u>:</u></h3>

a) The rock above shown in the picture is <u>pumice rock</u> because it is having abundant pores on its surface. It is the only rock found with numerous pores.

b) The pumice rock is an igneous rock and we know that igneous rocks ar made from the molten magma. When the lava comes out, and cooled down it forms the igneous rocks. During this process, if there are air spaces accumulated, they form pumice rock.

c) The pumice rock is known as porous rock because it contains many pores due to air spaces inside it. This is h hence very light and floats on water.

d) The pumice rock is used as a scrubber because of its lightness and porosity. It is also used as an abrasive .

Fatty acids that are necessary for proper health but cannot be synthesized by the body are called ________ fatty acids.
PtichkaEL [24]

Fatty acids that are necessary for proper health but cannot be synthesized by the body are called gluconeogenesis fatty acids.

<h3>What is gluconeogenesis?</h3>
  • The process of producing glucose (sugar) from lipid (fat) or protein breakdown products, as well as from its own breakdown products.
  • Gluconeogenesis primarily takes place in liver or kidney cells.
  • The process of producing glucose in the body from non-carbohydrate precursors is known as gluconeogenesis.
  • New glucose is produced by biosynthesis, not through the ingestion of carbohydrates.
  • Lactate, pyruvate, glycerol (fat), and certain amino acids can all be converted into glucose (protein).
  • Both the kidneys and the liver engage in glucose synthesis.
  • Between meals, gluconeogenesis meets the need for plasma glucose.
  • The hormones that cause diabetes encourage the production of glucose (glucagon, growth hormone, epinephrine, and cortisol).
  • Glycerol, lactate, propionate, and a few amino acids are examples of gluconeogenic substrates.

You are a molecule of CO2. Write your autobiography. Tell how you started at glucose and ended where you are today as carbon dio
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

I started out as glucose, got converted to pyruvate, after which I got oxidised by Oxygen to become CO2

Explanation:

My name is CO2, and I started out as glucose from pure honey. I got eaten by a little child when I was two weeks old, and I had to go through the dreadful process of aerobic respiration in the child's body.

My glucose molecules were broken down into pyruvate, and I stayed that way  for a while, as I made my way to the mitochondria of the child's cells.  Once I got to the mitochondria, I met my old friend oxygen, who reacted with me to turn me into the molecule I am today - C02.

If you want to know how I escaped the child's body, that's easy - I simply snuck out his nose while he was breathing one cold dark night.
