The right answer is Thanh's grade is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean of the test grades.
The z scores are standard deviations. If, for example, a tool returns a z score of +2.5, it means that the result is a standard deviation of 2.5.
Very high or very low (negative) z scores associated with very low p values are at the ends of the normal distribution.
Answer:
<em><u>What does she need from the food she ate and the air she breathes so that she can go on her run? </u></em>
A. Rosa needs carbohydrates rich food (bread) to carry out her jogging activity. Protein-rich food before exercise is not recommended unless she is on a weight loss program (diet plan).
B. Rosa needs oxygen to perform aerobic respiration, which is required for maximum release of energy (36 molecules per reaction run). Anaerobic reactions yield less energy (2 molecules of ATP per reaction run) and are not recommended.
<em><u>How do Rosa's body systems work together to get the molecules she needs into her cells?</u></em>
Rosa's body cells need carbohydrates (glucose) and oxygen to perform aerobic respiration for the release of maximum energy. The glucose and oxygen molecules are provided to the cells via diffusion into the bloodstream. During exercise/jogging, complex molecules of carbohydrates such as starch (present in bread) are broken down into simple molecules (glucose) which are diffused into the blood. Likewise, a high amount of oxygen is provided to the body's cells via diffusion in blood, which is carried out by the faster movement of lungs and heart. The combined action results in the supply of both types of molecules to enter the cell where mitochondria use these substrates to produce energy molecules (ATPs).
<em><u>How do hair cells use these molecules to release energy for her body to run?</u></em>
The substrates (glucose and oxygen) enters the bloodstream and then taken up to the cell. Then they are provided to the mitochondria for the release of energy in the form of ATP. This is why mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cells. Within the cell, energy is released in a three-step process, i.e. glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Here glucose reacts with oxygen. In the end, aerobic respiration per reaction run produces 36 molecules of ATP which are sufficient to meet intensive energy needs. During excrcise, the supply of oxygen and glucose is also faster due to faster lungs and heart actions.
PS: Anaerobic respiration cannot meet energy demands faster because the reaction produces only 2 ATP molecules per reaction run.
The breaking down of
sugars is called glycolysis. The prefix glyco- means sugar, and the suffix
-lysis means breaking down. It's part of a three-step process in respiration,
the other two is The Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Phosphorylation. In the
process of glycolysis, 2 ATP and 2 NADH are produced.
The correct answer is: D. The red blood cells were placed in a hypotonic solution. Water moved from the outside of the cells to the inside of the cells until the cells burst.
Hypotonic solution can be described as solution that has less solute and more water (H2O) than another solution. In order to maintain homeostasis, the water will move (via osmosis) into the cell, through the semipermeable membrane of the red blood cell.
