What percentage of the carbon atom's second energy level is filled?

Biology
2 answers:
kramer2 years ago

Answer:

50% is filled

Explanation:

The electron configuration of carbon (C) is written as C 1s² 2s² 2p². It is evident from the electron configuration of carbon, the first shell or first energy level is completely filled with two electrons. But in a bond, carbon changes its configuration to 1s²2s¹2p³.

One electron from the 2p orbital jumps up to the 3p orbital. Thus, carbon gives a sp³ hybridization and second energy level is half filled or 50% filled.

What chemicals regulate the cell cycle how do they work?
Molodets [167]
Cyclins are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>

Each of the following statements concerning hair is true except
Levart [38]

Answer: A. scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life.

Explanation:

Hair is a squamous keratinized epithelium which is consist of multi-layered flat cells.  Hair are made up of protein called "keratin".

The statement "scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life" is false because at a particular age or due to several factors scalp hairs stop growing.

Scalp hair growth rate depends on three main factors including sex (female hair grows faster than male), age (hair growth slows with age), and ethnicity (Asian hair grows slower than Caucasian hair).

Scalp hair growth stops because of  follicle devitalization when the hair length become two or three feet.

Hence, the correct answer is A. "scalp hairs grow constantly throughout life".

A postsynaptic potential is a graded potential that is the result of a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two ne
Ksju [112]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When the resting potential of the membrane is changed, the membrane becomes either more negative inside or less negative. This small deviation from the resting potential is called graded potential. A graded potential occurs when a stimulus triggers opening or closing of the mechanically gated  or ligand-gated channels present in the plasma membrane.

For example, the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters in response to a nerve impulse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors present in the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic neuron and triggers the opening of the ion channels to allow the inflow of particular ions to flow. The flow of ions changes the voltage across the membrane. This change in membrane voltage is a postsynaptic potential and is a type of graded potential.
