For humans, linoleic acid is one of the essential fatty acids we must consume. It is plentiful in vegetable oils, and we use it

to form compounds involved in immune responses. When it is decomposed through a process called b-oxidation, it produces effectively 27 NADH, 9 FADH2 and 9 ATP in the Krebs cycle, along with 9 FADH2 and 9 NADH as part of the decomposition.

How many ATP should this produce?

Answer:

18 ATP.

Explanation:

Total 18 ATP are produced because 9 FADH2 are converted into 9 ATP molecules and the earlier 9 ATP molecules are already present in the first b-oxidation process. The first Krebs cycle produces 27 NADH, 9 FADH2 and 9 ATP while on the other hand, the second Krebs cycle produces 9 ATP molecules from  9 FADH2 so total it produces 18 ATP molecules.

Which form of succession replaces<br> an<br> existing system after a calamity?
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Secondary succession

Explanation:

Ecological succession is the term used to describe any series of change in the composition of an ecosystem over a particular period of time. Ecological succession is made up of two types viz: primary succession and secondary succession.

Primary succession involves the formation of a brand new ecosystem by the colonization of a barren area of land e.g bare rock, where no life existed. Secondary succession, on the other hand, is the recolonization of an area by a new set of organisms because the previously existing organisms have been wiped out by certain disasters e.g fire outbreak, hurricanes etc. In secondary succession, there is soil, which makes it possible for new organisms to sprout quickly after the calamity.

Example of secondary succession is when a fire outbreak burns the organisms in a community, allowing the root of grasses to sprout after.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

cause cells to shrink due to an increase in the osmolarity of extracellular fluid.

Explanation:

Normovolemic describes the situation in which a living organism maintains a normal volume or amount of blood in the body.

A hyperosmotic solution can be defined as a solution having an increased level of osmotic pressure. Thus, when there's a greater amount of solute with respect to another solution in a membrane with close similarities, it is known as hyperosmotic solution.

Basically, hyperosmotic solution gives rise to higher difference between solutes and similar solutions.

Hence, when a normovolemic person consumes a large quantity of a hyperosmotic solution, it will cause cells to shrink due to an increase in the osmolarity of extracellular fluid i.e the total number of solute particles with respect to the concentration of a solution (Osm/L).
