Answer:

Volume= 4 cm³

Density= 2 g/cm³

Explanation:

We have the following data:

volume= V= 8 cm³

mass= m= 16 g

The density is the mass per volume of a substance, so the density of the rock is:

density= d= 16 g/8 cm³= 2 g/cm³

When we cut the rock in half, we have a half volume and a half mass:

V= 8 cm³/2= 4 cm³

m= 16 g/2= 8 g

But the density is not altered because it is an intrisic property - it does not change with the amount of subtance. Thus, the density of a half rock is:

d = m/V= 8 g/4 cm³= 2 g/cm³

Where are carbohydrates found in the body? And in cells?
slavikrds [6]

Hi,

Answer: The Liver

<u>My work:</u> Carbohydrates are usually located and converted in the Liver.

<u><em>Extra Information:</em></u> The body uses Carbohydrates as glucose. From there glucose can be converted to glycogen.

<u><em>Words you might not know:</em></u>

1) Converted - To change.

2) Glucose - Energy source.

Carbon chains are principal features of both carbohydrates and lipids.what is the primary difference between these two types of
solong [7]
While both carbohydrates and lipids are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen there are several differences:

1. Carbohydrates are chains of 2 or more carbon atoms.  These can be very lengthy (like long cellulose chains of glucose units). They have many polar OH groups (e.g. glucose - C6H6O6). Most carbohydrates are hydrophilic and are soluble in water because of their polar OH groups. They are not necessarily sugars nor are they necessarily sweet. They are also important components of DNA, RNA and ATP.

2. Lipids are more diverse in their chemistry. They generally have a polar region at one end (this end attracts water) and a large non polar hydrocarbon region that repels water. Lipids don't dissolve in water and instead clump together with their hydrocarbon regions on the interior. Lipids include oils, fatty acids, waxes, steroids and hormones.

2 Transport Vesicle

3 Golgi Complex

4 Transport Vesicle

5 Cytoplasm

6 Extracellular matrix

Explanation:

Rough endoplasmic reticulum is a organellle that produces proteins. The vesicles transport these proteins to the Golgi apparatus where they suffer different posttranslational modifications. Subsequently, the proteins are packed in vesicles and they transported in the cytoplasm to the extracellular matrix
