Answer 1: The electron is a subatomic particle that has a negative charge. Electron cannot be sub-divided further. An electron has a mass that ia ~ 1/1836 that of the proton.
The positron is also refereed as an antielectron. The positron has the charge of +1e, a spin of 1⁄2. The similarity between positron and electron is that they have same mass.
Answer 2: <span>Positron decay occurs in nuclei having heavy mass. Positron emission decreases proton number relative to the neutron number. Positron also exhibits nuclear transmutation thereby producing an atom of a different element, as compared to parent element,. Them atomic number of daughter element is less as compared to parent element by 1.
Example: </span><span><span>23 12</span>Mg </span><span>→ </span><span><span>23 11</span>Na </span><span> + </span><span>e+ </span><span>+ energy
</span><span>
Answer 3: </span><span>Electron capture is also referred as </span>K-electron capture. It <span>involves absorption of energy, thereby resulting in loss of electron usually from K or L shell. In this process,following thing occurs simultaneously
i) a nuclear proton present in nuclei changes to a neutron, after reacting with an electron which falls into the nucleus from one of its orbitals (preferentially from K or L)
2) Emission of an electron neutrino.
Following is an example of K-electron capture.
7 4Be + 0 -1e </span>→ 7 3Li + energy
Answer 4: Following are the distinct features of <span>transmutations caused by positron emissions and electron capture.
i) Positron: </span><span>A proton get converted into neutron due to radio-active process. This process results in the emission of positron and neutrino. The<span> process results in decrease in atomic number by one unit, and however atomic mass number remains unchanged.
ii) Electron capture: </span></span><span>A electron from the low energy level (K-shell or L-shell) falls into the nucleus. Due to this proton is converted into neutron. During this process, neutrino is emitted from the nucleus. As seen in positron emission, t<span>he atomic number goes down by one unit, but atomic mass number remains unchanged.</span></span>
Answer:
Glycerol;Pyruvate
Explanation:
Metabolism of triglycerides occur through a process known as lipolysis. During triglyceride metabolism, <u>Glycerol </u><u>is converted to pyruvate or glucose through glycolysis or gluconeogenesis respectively</u>. Glycerol enters these pathways by being converted to glycerol-3-phosphate (reaction catalyzed by glycerol kinase) which can in turn be converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (reaction catalyzed by glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase).
NOTE: Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is a compound/substrate found in both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.
The end product of glycolysis is pyruvate; this <u>pyruvate, under aerobic condition is converted to acetyl coA</u> (reaction catalyzed by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex), an intermediary of the Tricarboxylic acid cycle.
An atom that gains electrons and becomes negatively charged is known as an <u>anion</u><u>.</u>

sin theta equals to cos theta then the value of sin 2 theta
Well, you could use a reverse osmosis process to remove all of the fluoride that the United Staes government has put in the water! Every year the Us Gov receives a lot of fluoride from china. Fluoride is a waste and a poison, and instead of the Us Government paying a Buch of money to burn this waste, they just put it in the water! what you need t do, is get your water from the earth. Which is actually the best place to get your water, because its WATER filtered by the earth. Just google wells or springs around your location, some private business/companies offer their water collecting serves, something you should really take advantage of! As for me, I get my water at a place called "Carlsbad alkaline water." good stuff, only 50 cents for 4 gallons. rawr XD Jesus loves you, and he offers the everything freely, which means you don't need to follow a religion to earn anything. Lets face it, your not perfect, and we need help from God!
