Answer:
a. polarized
Explanation:
The whole living cell and in particular the nerve cells show electric potential difference between the inner and outer faces of their cell membrane.
The resting potential of a cell refers to the difference in electrical potential that the inner and outer faces in the membrane of a neuron that is not transmitting nerve impulses. The resting potential value is around -70mV (milliVolts). The negative sign indicates that the interior of the cell is negative relative to the exterior.
The existence of the resting potential is mainly due to the difference in concentration of sodium (Na +) and potassium (K +) ions inside and outside the cell. This difference is maintained by a mechanism of active ion pumping through cell membranes, in which sodium is forced out of the cell and potassium in.
At rest, the alternation between passive and active ion transport occurs. There is passive input of sodium (Na +) ions, which are subsequently actively expelled, while potassium (K +) ions enter actively. Then K + passes passively from the cell, making the external medium positive relative to the internal medium. With this, the cell becomes polarized.
One molecule of Glucose produces 38 molecules of ATP through the ETC in presence of enough oxygen.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
To know the number of ATP produced from a molecule of glucose, we need to know the total amount and the type of products produced in the 3 individual steps of an aerobic respiration.
1. <u>Glycolisis</u> - In glycolisis, one molecule of glucose is converted into two molecules of pyruvate with production of 2 ATP molecules and 2 molecules of NADH.
2. <u>Pyruvate Dehydroogenase step</u> - Two molecules of pyruvate produce a total of 2 NADH.
2. <u>Kreb's Cycle</u> - In Kreb's Cycle, two molecules of Acetyl CoA produce a total of 6 NADH, 2FADH and 2 GTP which is again equivalent to 2 ATP.
In the ETC, each NADH is converted into 3 molecules of ATP and each FADH is converted into 2 molecules of ATP.
In the whole process till now, total of 10 molecules of NADH, 2 molecules of FADH and 4 ATPs.
So total number of ATP produced is 10*3 + 2*2 + 4 = 30+4+4 =38.
Answer:
a) price of an exercise book = #200
b) #400
Explanation:
Let x represent the price of the book
Let y represent the price of the exercise book
- According to this question, the price of the book is thrice that of an exercise book i.e. x = 3y
- Also, the question states that if a student spend #9600 on book and #8000 on exercise book, he has 56 items altogether. This means that to get how many books and exercise books he bought, we divide the price of book and exercise book he bought by the price of each book (x) and exercise book (y) respectively. Mathematically, this means:
- Student bought 9600/x books
- Student bought 8000/y exercise books
So, 9600/x books + 8000/y exercise books = 56 item
9600/x + 8000/y = 56
Since x = 3y
We can say;
9600/3y + 8000/y = 56
Find the L.C.M of 3y and y = 3y and solve using fraction method (see attachment).
9600 + 24000/3y = 56
33600/3y = 56
Cross multiply
33600 = 56 × 3y
33600 = 168y
Divide both sides by 168
33600/168 = 168y/168
200 = y
y = 200
Since, x = 3y
x = 3 × 200
x = 600
Therefore, the price of book (x) and exercise book (y) are #600 and #200 respectively.
b) The difference between the price of a book and an exercise book i.e. x - y
= #600 - #200
= #400
