Answer:

96.5g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of Au = 50cm³

Density of Au = 19.3 g/cm³

Unknown:

Mass of the gold = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a compound.

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Mass = density x volume

Insert the parameters and solve;

Mass = 19.3 g/cm³ x 50cm³ = 96.5g

When cells communicate by the signaling process, one cell produces a _________________BLANK that must be received by the _______

velikii [3]

Answer:

1. Signaling molecule

2. Signaling receptors

Explanation:

Hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitters, etc. serve the function of signaling molecules for cells. These molecules are released by one cell and bind to the receptors present on/in the target cells to elicit the desired response. Thereby, the signaling molecules serve in cell-cell communication.

For example, insulin hormone synthesized and released from beta cells of pancreas binds to its cell surface receptors present on the surfaces of liver cells and muscle cells to stimulate the uptake of the glucose from the blood.

Likewise, neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic neuron bind to receptors present on the membrane of postsynaptic neuron and serve to carry the nerve impulse to the postsynaptic neuron.

Monosaccharides can be grouped as aldehydes and kefone groups,what is their difference and similarities and list four examples f

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Aldehyde has C=O bonded to atleast one H atom while Ketone has C=O bonded to two carbon atoms

Aldehyde - galactose, glucose, glyceraldehyde, fructose

Ketone - Trioses, Tetroses, Pentoses, Hexoses

Explanation:

Similarity

Both the aldehyde and ketone have C=O group

Difference

In aldehye the C=O group require atleast one hydrogen atom or the functional group in aldehyde is -CHO

while in ketone the function group is C=O only that is bonded to two carbon atoms.

Example

Aldehyde - galactose, glucose, glyceraldehyde, fructose

Ketone - Trioses, Tetroses, Pentoses, Hexoses
