Answer:

1. Carbohydrates (CHO)

2. Lipids (fats)

3. Proteins

4. Vitamins

5. Minerals

6. Water

1.Carbohydrates (CHO):

Carbohydrates (CHO) are composed of simple sugars (i.e. glucose, fructose, galactose) and are found mainly in plants (usually stored as starches or cellulose).

2. Lipids (fats):

Lipid: Another word for "fat." (Please see the various meanings of fat.) A lipid is chemically defined as a substance that is insoluble in water and soluble in alcohol, ether, and chloroform. ... Lipids include fatty acids, neutral fats, waxes and steroids (like cortisone).

3. Proteins:

A protein is a naturally occurring, extremely complex substance that consists of amino acid residues joined by peptide bonds. Proteins are present in all living organisms and include many essential biological compounds such as enzymes, hormones, and antibodies.

4. Vitamins:

A vitamin is an organic molecule that is an essential micronutrient which an organism needs in small quantities for the proper functioning of its metabolism. Essential nutrients cannot be synthesized in the organism, either at all or not in sufficient quantities, and therefore must be obtained through the diet.

5. Minerals:

In geology and mineralogy, a mineral or mineral species is, broadly speaking, a solid chemical compound with a fairly well-defined chemical composition and a specific crystal structure that occurs naturally in pure form. The geological definition of mineral normally excludes compounds that occur only in living beings.

6. Water:

Water is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance, which is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms. It is vital for all known forms of life, even though it provides no calories or organic nutrients.

A spring was at its resting position where it is attached to a wall at its left side and a block at its right side as shown belo
gladu [14]

Answer:

The force of spring will be "3.75 N". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Spring constant, K = 75.0 N/m

x₁ = 0.200 m

x₂ = 0.150 m

So that,

⇒ x=x_{1}-x_{2}

⇒    =0.200-0.15

⇒    =0.05 \ m

Now,

Force of spring will be:

⇒  F=K\times x

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒      =75\times 0.05

⇒      =3.75 \ N

Imagine these two elements, element A and element B are solids. The two elements are poured into a beaker and mixed. Illustrate
Kryger [21]

Chromatography is a simple technique in principle, it remains the most important method for the separation of mixtures into its components. It is quite versatile for it can be used to separate mixtures of solids.

Explanation:

  • The two elements of chromatography are the stationary phase and the mobile phase. There are many choices of stationary phases, some being alumina, silica, and even paper.  The mobile phase, in liquid chromatography, can also vary.  It is often either a solvent or a mixture of solvents and is often referred to as the eluant.
  • A careful choice of eluting solvent helps to make the separation more successful.  The mixture is placed on the stationary phase.  The eluant passes over the mixture and continues to pass through the stationary phase carrying along the components of the mixture.
  • Chromatography is used in industrial processes to purify chemicals, test for trace amounts of substances, separate chiral compounds and test products for quality control. Chromatography is the physical process by which complex mixtures are separated or analyzed.
  • Chromatography is based on the principle where molecules in mixture applied onto the surface or into the solid, and fluid stationary phase (stable phase) is separating from each other while moving with the aid of a mobile phase

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Half of the Moon's surface is always illuminated by direct sunlight, except during lunar eclipses when Earth casts its shadow on the Moon. Just how much of that light we can see from Earth varies every day, and we refer to this as a Moon phase.
