Answer: B. In hypoxic tissues, in contrast to normoxic tissues, ATP is additionally consumed to transform lactate to pyruvate
Explanation:
In hypoxic tissues such as new cancerous cells, the vascular system is still underdeveloped, thus oxygen supply is reduced. To meet energy need, additional glucose is needed to convert lactate (result of anaerobic glycolysis) to pyruvate which can then go into the TCA cycle to yield energy. This phenomenon is very common in muscle tissues during exercise.
Answer:
a) 12 neutrons
Explanation:
The atomic mass is 22.990, which can be rounded to 23 and is the combination of protons and neutrons. The atomic number is 11 (protons), and 23-11=12, whoch would be the neutron number
Hope this helps :)
The mantle is a layer inside a planetary bodybounded below by a core and above by a crust. Mantles are either made of rock or ices, and are generally the largest and most massive layer of the planetary body. Mantles are characteristic of planetary bodies that have undergone differentiation by density. The mantle is bounded on the bottom by the planetary core and on top by the crust. In addition to the Earth, the other terrestrial planets, a number of asteroids, and moonshave mantles.
