Answer:
Lipid A, present as part of a Lipopolysaccharide complex in the outer membrane of gram negative bacteria cell walls, should be the answer, but it does not appear in the options included. As option C states “Amino terminal triglyceride”, and triglycerides are lipids, then we could explore this option. However, nothing is said about lipoproteins linked to Lipid A (that acts as an endotoxin) to mention carboxyl- or amino- terminals (options A and C), so I would consider the core oligosaccharide option as more probable (see below*).
Explanation:
Murein and peptidoglycan are names used to refer bacterial cell walls main component. This complex is mainly composed by disaccharide units composed of alterning N-acetyl-muramic acid (that contains the same structure of N-acetylglucosamine, plus a tetrapeptide) and N-acetyl-glucosamine, which form the backbone of the wall. These are responsible for the strength and shape of the cell. In Gram negative bacteria, an outer layer called outer membrane, as it contains an important amount of lipids, linked to other molecules, is also present. There, Lipid A is associated to a core oligosaccharide, and subsequently to the Antigen O (polysaccharide) forming Liposaccharides, wich stabilize and give strength to gram negative cell walls.
*Lipid A is the main responsible molecule for toxicity in these cell walls. As in question answer options, is included in B option “Oligosaccharide core”, which is closely linked to Lipid A, it could be the option to choose. Moreover, oligo saccharides are involved in toxicity responses in several microorganisms

kinds of atoms are in a molecule, but not how they are
arranged.
Answer:
The heat released by the combustion is 20,47 kJ
Explanation:
Bomb calorimeter is an instrument used to measure the heat of a reaction. The formula is:
Q = C×m×ΔT + Cc×ΔT
Where:
Q is the heat released
C is specific heat of water (4,186kJ/kg°C)
m is mass of water (1,00kg)
ΔT is temperature change (23,65°C - 20,45°C)
And Cc is heat capacity of the calorimeter (2,21kJ/°C)
Replacing these values the heat released by the combustion is:
<em>Q = 20,47 kJ</em>
High tides and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.
Answer:
E = 6.27 × 10⁻²³ Joules
Explanation:
E = h (Plancks constant) × f (frequency)
(Plancks constant = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J×s)
f = λ × c (used to find frequency so you can satisfy energy equation)
*Have to find wavelength in meters to multiply by speed of light*
1. f = (3.15 × 10⁻⁷ m) × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)
2. f = 9.45 × 10¹⁰ s
3. E = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J×s [Plancks constant]) × (9.45 × 10¹⁰ s)
E = 6.27 × 10⁻²³ Joules
