Flauer [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The statement is true.

Explanation:

Muscle obtains ATP from glycolysis. When exercise conditions are anaerobic, glucose is degraded to lactate. Lactate is exported into the circulation and is taken up by the liver. The liver synthesizes glucose again from lactate via the gluconeogenic pathway. These two metabolic pathways that allow the coupling of the function of two tissues is what is known as the Cori cycle. The energy cost is 4 P bonds / each glucose that travels both glycolytic-gluconeogenic pathways.

Predict the outcomes of a plant with 6 diploid chromosomes that fertilized a similar plant in which the egg failed to undergo me
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - triploid plant.

Explanation:

Triploidy is a condition which can be defined as the 3 set of chromosome in an organism, the extra set of chromosome may be come from the maternal organism or the paternal derived. Maternal derived triploidy known as the digynic while in in the case of the paternal derived called diandric.

In this case the sperm goes under the meiosis so the each gamete will have one chromosome of each set (I I I) while the egg failed to undergo meiosis so the gamete carry complete set of chromosome ( II II II ) after fertilization the outcome will be Digynic triploidy (III III III).

Thus, the correct answer would be - triploid plant.

Rock B reacts with hydrochloric acid. State the name of the rock B
choli [55]

Answer:

The sedimentary rock limestone which contains carbonate mineral Calcite and the metamorphic rocks which contain carbonate mineral Aragonite are the examples of rocks which react strongly with hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

Rocks are naturally occurring structures formed on the Earth's crust and are composed of aggregate minerals. Classification of rocks: Igneous rocks - formed by cooling of magma on Earth's crust or seabed (basalts, gabbros, granite, etc), sedimentary rocks - formed over time by the accumulation of sediments from the weathering of existing rocks or fragments of minerals and organisms (mudstone, sandstone, shale, limestone, dolostone, siltstone, etc) and metamorphic rocks - transformed rocks formed from the existing rocks that are subjected to large pressures and temperatures (schists, gneiss, marble, etc).

The carbonate minerals like calcite, dolomite, aragonite, etc react with hydrochloric acid and release carbon dioxide gas bubbles. Calcite (calcium carbonate), which is found in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks in a varying proportion reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid. So, the sedimentary rock Limestone which mainly contains calcite react strongly with the acid while Dolostone which mainly contains dolomite (calcium magnesium carbonate) reacts less vigorously. Another carbonate mineral aragonite, found in metamorphic rocks also reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid.
