Where are carbohydrates found and what is their purpose/function?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbohydrates are found in a wide array of both healthy and unhealthy foods—bread, beans, milk, popcorn, potatoes, cookies, spaghetti, soft drinks, corn, and cherry pie. They also come in a variety of forms. The most common and abundant forms are sugars, fibers, and starches.

...........................

The four primary functions of carbohydrates in the body are to provide energy, store energy, build macromolecules, and spare protein and fat for other uses.

Answer 2
Carbohydrates are the body's ideal fuel for most functions. It gives glucose to fuel our cells. They supply the body with the energy needed for the muscles, brain and central nervous system.

Every cell in your body contains organelles (structures that have specific functions). Just like organs in the body, each organelle contributes in its own way to helping the cell function well as a whole. The nucleus, mitochondria and chloroplasts are all organelles. Some organelles are found only in some cell types.

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

However, as described in the question. each cell organelle has specialized function that assists the cell carry-out it's own function as a whole. Cell organelles include cell membrane, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, vacuole, golgi complex, lysosomes, nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts among others.

Of these cell organelles, only three were mentioned in the question

Nucleus: This houses the chromosome which stores genetic material. This organelle is found in plant and animal eukaryotic cells. Indeed, eukaryotic organisms are sometimes described as organisms that have well defined nucleus.

Mitochondria: They are found in most plant and animal eukaryotic cells. They are usually referred to as the power house of the cell as they provide energy-rich chemical compounds (called ATP) for the cell's activities.

Chloroplasts: These are cellular structures/organelles that are found only in  green plants - they are cellular machinery for photosynthesis in plants. They also contain the green pigment called chlorophyll which is responsible for the green colour of green plants.

The type of the cell in which the organelles mentioned in the question are listed above.

Which organism turns nitrogen back into nitrogen gas?
A. denitrifying bacteria
B. nitrogen fixing bacteria
C. decomposers
D. nitrifying bacteria

Answers

Answer:

b

Explanation:

part of the nitrogen cycle

Denitrifying bacteria turns nitrogen back into nitrogen gas. The correct option is A.

What is nitrogen fixation?

Any natural or artificial process called nitrogen fixation causes free nitrogen, a relatively inert gas present in large quantities in the atmosphere, to chemically interact with other elements to generate more reactive nitrogen compounds like ammonia, nitrates, or nitrites.

Chemically, nitrogen fixation transforms atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, which is ingested by living things.

In essence, nitrogen fixation transforms atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use more easily.

Nitrate is transformed back into nitrogen gas by denitrifying bacteria, which then reenters the atmosphere. Runoff and fertilizer-related nitrogen enters the ocean, where it interacts with marine food webs.

Thus, the correct option is A.

A force of 240 N causes an object to accelerate at 3.2 m/s2. What is the mass of the object?
A.75N
B.75 kg
C.0.013 kg
D.768 kg
Which is the answer?

Answers

Answer:

B.75 kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force on the object = 240N

Acceleration of the object = 3.2m/s²

Unknown:

Mass of the object = ?

Solution:

Force is the pull or push on an object. According to Newton's first law; it is mathematically expressed as;

     Force  = mass x acceleration

The unknown here is the mass, simply input the parameters and solve for it;

       240  = mass x 3.2

           mass  = [tex]\frac{240}{3.2}[/tex]   = 75kg

The mass of the object is 75kg

Describe an example of acceleration and explain how velocity is changing

Answers

If an object is slowing down, then its acceleration is in the opposite direction of its motion.In Example A, the object is moving in the positive direction (i.e., has a positive velocity) and is speeding up. When an object is speeding up, the acceleration is in the same direction as the velocity



HOPE YOU HAVE A GREATT DAYY!!!

The velocity is changing because the acceleration is present which is non-zero.

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of velocity of an object in a particular direction is known as acceleration. The acceleration is a vector quantity and its SI unit is a meter per second square. The acceleration is given as,

a = dv / dt

Where dv / dt is known as change.

According to Newton's Second Law, the amount of an element's acceleration is the joint result of two reasons:

The strength of the net resultant force, which is directly proportional to the sum of all external forces exerted on that item;Depending on the components used to create it, an object's mass is inversely related to its magnitude.

The velocity is changing because the acceleration is present which is non-zero.

The diffusion of water molecules in and out of cells is very common.
Which of the following is the process by which water moves across a
membrane, from an area of high concentration to low concentration,
without the use of energy? *
osmosis
hydrolysis
photosynthesis
cyclosis

Answers

Osmosis is the process; it is essentially diffusion, which is a spontaneous (no energy input required) process as applied to water.

----------------------------

Hydrolysis is incorrect; that describes a type of chemical reaction in which water breaks a chemical bond.

Photosynthesis is incorrect; that describes the complex process in which energy in light is converted into chemical energy.

Cyclosis is incorrect; that describes the movement of cytoplasm within a cell. There is no spontaneous, net movement of water across a concentration gradient.

Answers

Explanation:

Water is extremely valuable to all living things. It is especially important for plants to perform photosynthesis which is one of the smallest most valuable biochemical mechanisms known to life, in addition, plants are the main source of nutrients for many creatures. Without photosynthesis, plants would not be able to produce oxygen. In addition, plants are classified as producers, the most basic level of the flow of energy in every ecosystem and are the main reason energy from the sun can then be converted into usable energy for primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers. For humans, water is extremely important to keeping our bodies in homeostasis while the billions of chemical reactions take place in our bodies in just minutes. A human can not live without water for more than three to four days. If there was a deficiency of water both plants, animals, and humans would be greatly affected. Without water, plants would not grow, so no conversion CO2 to 02 and harnessing energy from the sun. Next animals that depend on both water and plants would have a decrease in population. Followed by the depletion of all else consumers. You remove a resource this valuable and there is no coming back.

Answers

A disadvantage of using nuclear power is D. Nuclear power produces radioactive waste.

What is nuclear power?

Nuclear power is a controversial topic, with proponents arguing that it is a clean and efficient source of energy, while opponents point to the risks of accidents and the dangers of radioactive waste.

One of the main disadvantages of nuclear power is that it produces radioactive waste. Radioactive waste is a byproduct of the nuclear fission process, and it can remain radioactive for thousands of years. This makes it difficult to store and dispose of safely. Another disadvantage of nuclear power is that it is expensive to build and operate nuclear power plants.
