When methane (CH4) combines with oxygen (O2), carbon

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

C. CH4 + 202 – CO2 + 2H20

Explanation:

CH4+O2-CO2+H20

The above equation represents combustion of methane to produce carbon-dioxide and water.

One carbon atom is present on the reactant side as well as on the product side. Four hydrogen atoms are present on the reactant side  and two hydrogen atoms on product side. In order to balance this equation, we would multiply water molecule by two. Now there are four atoms of oxygen in the product side but only two on reactant side, so we will multiply oxygen molecule by two on the reactant side. Now the equation is balanced.

The balanced chemical equation is:

CH4+202-CO2+2H2O

This equation obeys the law of conservation of mass as the mass of the reactants is same as that of the products.

Which part of an individual villus forms part of the lymphatic system and absorbs fats from the lumen of the small intestine?
Lostsunrise [7]
I believe the answer is the lacteals. 
Lacteals are structures that are in the middle of each villi; they are lymphatic capillaries that absorbs dietary fats in the villi of the small intestines. Triglycerides are emulsified by bile and hydrolyzed by the enzyme lipase, resulting in a mixture of fatty acids and monoglycerides. The lacteals merge to form larger lymphatic vessels that transport chyle to the thoracic duct where it is emptied into the blood stream at the subclavian vein.

Essay : What is the impact of pandemic on climate change and vice versa?​
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

.

Explanation:

To explain the last sentence, what I mean by that is the sudden decrease in air pollution in just a few weeks is what would have typically taken multiple years to do. Due to less drivers, factories shutting down, and more, less toxic and infirm mental hazardous chemicals were released into the atmosphere in an extremely short amount of time. However, nowdays, it is almost back to where is was before the pandemic.

What is the major cause of phytoplankton blooms in the Gulf of Mexico?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Excessive nutrients from fertilizer run off.  

Explanation:

Scientists have suspected that phytoplankton blooms might be connected to agricultural run-off. They got some evidence from a recent study by comparing the timing of irrigation along the west coast of Mexico and phytoplankton blooms in Mexico’s Sea of Cortez. During the comparison, they had found a close correlation. Phytoplankton blooms occurred in the Sea of Cortez shortly after the irrigation. This happened because of carried fertilizers after irrigation and other agricultural run-offs into the sea.

The bloom detected in the Gulf of Mexico on December 13 might be similarly linked to agricultural run-off.
