Answer:
Mitochondria are abundantly present in mammalian cells. Their fraction varies from tissue to tissue, ranging from <1% (volume) in white blood cells to 35% in heart muscle cells. However, mitochondria should not be thought of as single entities, but rather a dynamic network that continuously undergoes fission and fusion processes. In skeletal muscle, mitochondria exist as a reticular membrane network. The subsarcolemmal (SS) and intermyofibrillar (IMF) mitochondria are located in distinct subcellular regions, and they possess subtle differences in biochemical and functional properties that are characterized by their anatomical locations. SS mitochondria lie directly beneath the sarcolemmal membrane and the IMF mitochondria are located in close contact with the myofibril. Their different properties are likely to influence their capacity for adaptation. SS mitochondria account for 10-15% of the mitochondrial volume and this population has been shown to be more susceptible to adaptation than the IMF mitochondria. However, the IMF mitochondria were found to have higher rates of protein synthesises, enzyme activities and respiration (1).

Answer:
2.640
Explanation:
Rounding to the nearest whole number would be 3 if that is needed.
The negative ion reactions that consist of the formation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is generally an exothermic reaction. By definition, an exothermic reaction takes place when the chemical process eventually releases heat as its by-product. It is in contrast in endothermic process wherein heat is absorbed.
Answer:
Mass = 4.6 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of molecules of sucrose = 8.1 ×10²¹ molecules
Mass of sucrose = ?
Solution:
First of all we will calculate the number of moles by using Avogadro number.
1 mole × 8.1 ×10²¹ molecules / 6.022×10²³ molecules
1.35 × 10⁻² mol
Mass of sucrose:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Molar mass = 342.3 g/mol
Mass = 1.35 × 10⁻² mol ×342.3 g/mol
Mass = 462.1 × 10⁻² g
Mass = 4.6 g
