My classmate's statement in incorrect because plants are also composed of cells.

All living things are composed of cells. A cell is the smallest unit of living organisms. Cells obtain energy via the process of cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to yield carbon dioxide and water.

In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are combined to form glucose. The two processes are opposites of each other. Plants produce their own food via photosynthesis. Since plants are composed of cells, plant cells also undergo cellular respiration therefore my classmate's statement in incorrect.

How does a rock’s mass change when it goes through the rock cycle?
JulijaS [17]

The rock cycle is the process of converting rock between igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic forms. ... Molten rock inside the Earth undergoes a phase change as it cools to produce solid igneous rock. The chemical changes which form the rock depend on the type of minerals present and how fast the rock cools.

Discuss the changes of heated copper sulfate crystals and its reaction upon the addition of water. Write the reaction equation​
Arturiano [62]

Explanation:

If copper sulphate crystals are added to water then, the particles of copper sulphate crystals loses attraction between them and starts moving continuously and gets mixed up with water. It is called 'hydrated copper sulphate solution which is having a blue colour.

What is the energy of a photon having a wavelength of 2.60 ✕ 10-8 m?<br> J
zvonat [6]

The energy of a photon : 7.645 x 10⁻³⁴ J

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Radiation energy is absorbed by photons

The energy in one photon can be formulated as

\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}

Where

h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)

f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves

f = c / λ , Hz

c = speed of light

= 3.10⁸  m/s

λ = wavelength ,m

wavelength λ of 2.60 ✕ 10⁻⁸ m

The energy :

\tt E=h.\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\E=6.626.10^{-34}\times \dfrac{3\times 10^8}{2.6\times 10^{-8}}\\\\E=7.645\times 10^{-34}~J

AURORKA [14]

Answer:  Hmmmm.   Let's see...

Explanation:  A pebble has the same density and a boulder when it rolls down a hill.  The pebble will most-likely roll down very fast which can make it dense.

If a cell is able to synthesize 30 ATP molecules for each molecule of glucose completely oxidized by carbon dioxide and water, h
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The number of ATP molecules the cell synthesize for each molecule of pyruvate oxidized to carbon dioxide and water is 14 ATP molecules.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction for glycolysis is

Glucose + 2 NAD⁺ + 2 Pi + 2 ADP → 2 pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 ATP + 2 H⁺ + 2 H₂O + heat

As seen above, each glucose molecule produces 2 pyruvate molecules and   2 ATP. Therefore, if the cell can produce 30 ATP per glucose molecule then, since 2 ATP are already produced directly by the glycolysis of glucose, the remaining 28 ATP re produced from the two pyruvate molecules

Therefore, the number of ATP molecules the cell can synthesize for each pyruvate oxidized to carbon dioxide and water is 28/2 or 14 ATP.
