Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable level of internal conditions even though environmental conditions are constantly changing. Metabolism is the sum of all the chemical reactions that take in and transform energy and materials from the environment.
I just did this BTW. The correct answer is A.) Nuclear fusion is the correct answer. Nuclear fission is what we use today in nuclear power plants, a great deal of radioactive waste, the other are by products of this process. Nuclear fusion releases a great deal of energy with a little radioactivity, but the problem is ignition temperatures; but maybe someday.
Answer:
Explanation:
Oxygen gas and water must be present for iron to rust.
A region of the metal’s surface serves as the anode, where oxidation
occurs:
Fe(s) → Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 e⁻
The electrons given up by iron reduce atmospheric oxygen to water at the cathode, which is another region of the same metal’s surface:
O₂ (g) + 4H⁺ (aq) + 4 e⁻ → 2 H₂O (l)
The overall redox reaction is:
2 Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 4H⁺(aq) + 2Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 H₂O(l)
The Fe²⁺ ions formed at the anode are further oxidized by oxygen:
4 Fe²⁺ (aq) + O₂(g) 1 (4 + 2x) H₂O (l) → 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O(s) + 8 H⁺(aq)
This hydrated form of iron(III) oxide is known as rust. The amount of water associated with the iron oxide varies, so we represent the formula as 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O.
Answer: The correct answer is rRNA and protein.
Explanation:
Ribosome is a cell organelle present in the cytoplasm of all living cells. It is a site of protein synthesis in all type of cells. It is made up of two sub-units namely, small sub-unit and large sub-unit.
Both the sub-units are formed by rRNA (ribosomal RNA) and associated proteins. rRNA is ribozyme, that is, it is a ribonucleic acid with catalytic ability. The protein component helps in providing the structure to the ribosome.
