Identify this vocabulary word: the process of breaking down glucose for the production of ATP

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cellular respiration

Explanation:

Fermentation is a mechanism in anaerobic respiration(breaking down glucose in the absence of oxygen). Examples are lactic acid fermentation is humans, Alcohol fermentation in yeast.

Cellular respiration sums up both anaerobic and aerobic(with oxygen)

Metabolism is just breaking down food molecules chemically into their simplest forms (monomers). These monomers then undergo cellular respiration to produce ATP

What is the function of the digestive system? why is it important to the body?
tangare [24]

The digestive system is made up of the gastrointestinal tract—also called the GI tract or digestive tract—and the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. The GI tract is a series of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus. The hollow organs that make up the GI tract are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus. The liver, pancreas, and gallbladder are the solid organs of the digestive system.

The small intestine has three parts. The first part is called the duodenum. The jejunum is in the middle and the ileum is at the end. The large intestine includes the appendix, cecum, colon, and rectum. The appendix is a finger-shaped pouch attached to the cecum. The cecum is the first part of the large intestine. The colon is next. The rectum is the end of the large intestine.

Digestion is important because your body needs nutrients from food and drink to work properly and stay healthy. Proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins NIH external link, minerals NIH external link, and water are nutrients. Your digestive system breaks nutrients into parts small enough for your body to absorb and use for energy, growth, and cell repair.

  • Proteins break into amino acids
  • Fats break into fatty acids and glycerol
  • Carbohydrates break into simple sugars

Each part of your digestive system helps to move food and liquid through your GI tract, break food and liquid into smaller parts, or both. Once foods are broken into small enough parts, your body can absorb and move the nutrients to where they are needed. Your large intestine absorbs water, and the waste products of digestion become stool. Nerves and hormones help control the digestive process.

Nitrogen gas at 300 k and 200 kpa is throttled adiabatically to a pressure of 100 kpa if the change in kinetic energy is negligb
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The temperature of the Nitrogen after throttling is  T_2 = 300 \  K

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  temperature is  T_1 =  300 \  K

    The pressure is  P =  200 \  kPa  =  200 * 10^{3} \  Pa

    The pressure after being  P_1 =  100 \  kPa =  100 * 10^{3} \  Pa

   

Generally from the first law of thermodynamics we have that

      Q - W =  \Delta U + \Delta  K

Here \Delta U  is the change internal  energy which is mathematically represented as

            \Delta U =  C_p  (T_2 - T_1)

Here      C_p is the specific heat of the gas at constant pressure

        \Delta K  is the change kinetic energy which is negligible

         Q  is the thermal  energy  which is Zero for an adiabatic process

         W  is the work done and the value is zero given that the gas was throttled adiabatically

So

      0=  \Delta U +0

=>   \Delta U  = 0

=>  (T_2 - 300)  = 0

=>   T_2 = 300 \  K
