Which equation best represents conservation of matter?

Biology
1 answer:
worty [1.4K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A 6H2O + 6CO2 → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Explanation:

The law of conservation of matter states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a system. In other words, when elemental matter undergoes a reaction, the amount of elements used must be equal the amount produced.

The equations in this question depicts the overall photosynthetic process where CO2 combines with H2O to produce C6H12O6 and O2. In order for this equation to obey the "conservation of matter", each individual element must be equal on both the reactant and the product side i.e. the equation must be balanced.

The equation that fulfills this is:

6H2O + 6CO2 → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Hence, it correctly describes the conservation of matter.

Answer:

Taking into account the principle of osmosis, the question that best addresses experimental design is  <em>How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?</em>

Explanation:

The experimental design of the student, made with dialysis bags and sucrose at different concentrations should recreate the principle of osmosis, of importance in living beings for organic homeostasis.

Osmosis consists of the movement of water - through a semi-permeable membrane - from a less concentrated solution to a higher concentration solution, following a gradient, to achieve balance.  

The student will observe in his experiment that water moves from the solution with less sucrose concentration to the higher concentration of sugar. Beakers with the highest concentration of sucrose will have the highest weight, due to the increase in liquid volume.

How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?

The experiment shows that:

  1. The water from the beaker with less sucrose concentration moved -through the dialysis tubes and the membrane- to the beaker containing the most concentrated sucrose.
  2. Different sucrose concentrations will attract different amounts of water, which influences the final weight of each container.

With this experiment the principle of osmosis is confirmed, where the concentration of a solute determines the amount of water that passes through a semipermeable membrane -following a concentration gradient- until equilibrium is reached.

Explain which type of succession occurs most often and why.
Afina-wow [57]
Secondary succession happens more often because it occurs after some kind of distribution that still leaves the soil intact (mudslide,bulldozing,shoveling,or scraping off an area)

Which structure is at work when the body deals with reflex actions?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

spinal cord

Explanation:

Reflex actions are the involuntary action of the body in response to a signal or stimulus. The reflex action of body is controlled by spinal cord.

Reflex arc acts as a neural pathways that transmit impulse to the brain via spinal cord. Sensory neurons pass through synapse in the spinal cord which activate spinal motor neuron to act immediately without any delay.

Immediate taking off hand from hot oven is an example of reflex action, which is regulated by spinal cord.  

Hence, the correct option is spinal cord.
