Answer: c. 2 pyruvate molecules
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the first step it the cell respiration cycle. It turns one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate by a series of reactions catalyzed by different enzymes.
It starts by using 2 ATP to turn glucose into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, which then divides in two and releases 4 ATP when it turns into two pyruvate molecules.
Thus glycolysis consumes 2 ATP and releases 4 ATP (giving a net gain of 2 ATP) and 2 pyruvate molecules.
The process where a specie develops and evolves into new many species is termed as speciation. Macroevolution explores the mechanism of speciation where organisms across biological populations evolve as distinct population.
There are many causes to speciation, a) geographic isolation, b) gene flow reduction, and c) reproductive isolation.
Answer:
b) By mixing weak base with its conjugate acid and then adjusting the pH with strong acid.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, considering that the buffer required a pH greater than 7 where the basic conditions are present, we need a weak base and its conjugate base in order to assure such pH greater than 7. Moreover, by using a strong acid, we can gently add it in order to decrease the pH up to 7.4 via a properly measured neutralization of the necessary moles of base up to a hydrogen concentration of 3.98x10⁻⁸ (pH). Therefore, answer is b) By mixing weak base with its conjugate acid and then adjusting the pH with strong acid.
Best regards.
