It means that a person has the ability to describe, explain, and predict natural phenomena. Scientific literacy entails being able to read with understanding articles about science in the popular press and to engage in social conversation about the validity of the conclusions. Scientific literacy implies that a person can identify scientific issues underlying national and local decisions and express positions that are scientifically and technologically informed. A literate citizen should be able to evaluate the quality of scientific information on the basis of its source and the methods used to generate it. Scientific literacy also implies the capacity to pose and evaluate arguments based on evidence and to apply conclusions from such arguments appropriately.

hope this helps and sorry if this is wrong

When co2 levels are low and o2 levels are high, rubisco adds an o2 molecule to rubp. what are the consequences of this reaction?
marissa [1.9K]
Rubisco is an important enzyme that helps in making lifeless carbon of carbon dioxide into organic molecules. Rubisco takes carbon dioxide and attaches it to ribulose bisphosphate, a short sugar chain with five carbon atoms that has rubp as its shortcut. Rubisco then clips the lengthened chain into to polyglycerate pices, which are pretty flexible molecules and are also used in the feeding of the plant. Most of it is used in the photosynthesis pathway, but some of it is used to make sucrose (table sugar) to feed the rest of the plant, or stored away in the form of starch for later use. Hence, rubisco is crucial in the storing of the energy that is created from photosynthesis.

Which of the following solvent pairs could be used in a solvent pair recrystallization (in general, not for this specific reacti
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) Ethyl acetate and hexane, and (c) methanol and methylene chloride.

Explanation:

re-crystallization is a technique used to purify solid compound.   Ethyl acetate and hexane are good solvent pair for recrystallization because they are miscible with each other due to their good differences in polarity. ethyl acetate has polarity of 77 while hexane has 68.

water and diethyl ether are not good solvent pair for recrystallization because water and diethyl ether are immiscible. They have very far polarity values. water has 100 while diethyl ether has 35

How is weight affected by gravity
Ira Lisetskai [31]
The higher levels of gravity put on an object the more weight the object has. For example someone who weighs say 100 lbs would weigh more if higher amounts of gravity would be applied to them. And less if less gravity was applied. But larger objects will automatically have more gravity applied to them than something smaller due to the gravitational pull needing to pull harder to keep the object to the planet's surface. Hope this helps! :)
