Answer: The basic unit of matter

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest unit of an element or any matter that can ever exist and still retain the properties of that matter. So, since matter could exist as gases, liquids or solids - atoms serves as the basic unit of matter.

Furthermore, an atom is neither a positively charged nor a negatively charged particle rather it is neutral (with no charge).

As well, it is a cell that is regarded as the basic unit of all living things, not an atom

Thus, an atom is best described as the basic unit of matter whether living or non-living.

Why HIV virus not spread by mosquito
muminat
Mosquitoes have a 6-tube system in their "snout". It's a big big needle with 6 parts to it. 4 of those parts are used to pierce the skin of the human. The other 2 parts are 2 tubes. One of those tubes sends saliva from the mosquito down into the human. The other sends blood up from the human into the mosquito.
Now, unlike some viruses (like dengue and Zikka), HIV cannot replicate inside a mosquito. HIV replicates inside human T-cells...there aren't any of those inside a mosquito gut. Eventually the HIV is destroyed and never makes it to the saliva of the mosquito - so the mosquito can never infect a human with HIV.

The classical point of view is that, during mitochondrial respiration, three ATP molecules can be generated from one molecule of
Stells [14]

Answer:

38

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, the maximum production of ATP molecules generated per glucose molecule during cellular respiration is 38, i.e., 2 ATP molecules from glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules from the Krebs cycle, and 34 ATP molecules from the Electron Transport Chain (ETC). <em>In vivo</em> (i.e., in the cell), this number is not reached because there is an energy cost associated with the movement of pyruvate (CH3COCOO−) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) into the mitochondrial matrix, thereby the predicted yield is approximately 30 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. In aerobic bacteria, aerobic respiration of glucose occurs in the cytoplasm (since bacteria do not contain membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria), and thereby, in this case, it is expected that aerobic respiration using glucose yields 38 ATP per glucose molecule.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: Movement along fault line

Explanation:

Here's the remainder of the question:

Which map best predicts the likely movement of land along the fault line over thousands of years?

A transform fault is simply refered to a as a fault that occurs along the plate boundary such that the motion in such case is horizontal and ends when there's a connection with another plate boundary.

Based on the question, the map that best predicts the likely movement of land along the fault line over thousands of years will be a movement along fault line.
