Answer:

When Earth passes directly between the sun and the moon, a lunar eclipse takes place. During a solar eclipse, the moon casts two shadows. One is called the umbra; the other is called the penumbra. An eclipse takes place when Earth or the moon passes through a shadow.

Why would you expect an earthworm to lack an exoskeleton??
Murrr4er [49]
You would expect an earthworm to have no exoskeleton because as you see it is very flexible and soft. Organisms with such have body parts that are divided and an earthworm do not have any visible parts on them also having an exoskeleton would not allow an organism to move like an earthworm does.

Very low concentrations of detergent make membranes leaky to small molecules and ions without damaging proteins. In isolated mit
Grace [21]

Options

A. Yes, because all enzymes and electron carriers are functional

B. No, because with a leaky membrane, the proton gradient cannot be maintained

C. No, because leaky membranes inhibit glycolysis

D. No, because leaky membranes do not allow NADH and FADH2 to donate their electrons to the electron transport chain

Answer:

B. No, because with a leaky membrane, the proton gradient cannot be maintained

Explanation:

The proton motive force (PMF) provides the needed pump  to generate electrochemical gradients of proton needed for continue influx  into the matix of the mitochondria. The proton Influx generates the energy needed by  protein ATPase Synthase for  synthesis  of ATPs by adding inorganic phosphate to ADP to give ATP.

               ADP + Pi -----------→ ATP.

If the mitochondria;l  intramembrane leaks, then the PMF can  not be sustained, therefore electtrochermical gradient which supplies the energy for ATP synthase for ATP synthesis will not be available. Therefore ATP synthesis stops.

A cell come a certain organism has 64 individual, or 32 pairs, of chromosomes. Which of these can you draw?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

B. The cell cannot be a human

Explanation:

Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, or 46 individual chromosomes. Mutations in humans usually cause there to be a single extra chromosome, or a single missing chromosome. A mutation would not cause there to be 64. So, A cannot be true. Prokaryotic cells usually have one chromosome, not 64, so C cannot be true. D cannot be assumed as you cannot tell if there is uncontrolled cell growth. Therefore, the answer would be B.
