The liquids hexane
and water are placed in a test tube. The test tube is stoppered, shaken, and
placed in a test tube rack. The liquids separate into two distinct
layers because hexane and water have different molecular polarities. The answer
is number 2.
Total atoms is 9 ( 2 carbon atoms, 5 hydrogen atoms, 1 oxygen atom and 1 hydrogen atom = 9 atoms)
Element is 3 ( Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen)
Answer:
The correct option is D
Explanation:
Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.
