The specific heat of a metal is 0.5 cal/ (0C.g). The heat required to raise temperature of 100 gram of that metal by 20 0C is

1 answer:

4 0

The specific heat of the metal is 0.5 cal/ (0C.g). This means the energy needed is 0.5 cal to raise the heat of 1 gram of metal by 1 degree C. Therefore, the energy needed to raise 100 g of the metal by 20 degrees C is:
0.5 * 20 * 100 = 1000 cal.

Thiobacillus denitrificans is a species of bacteria that obtains its energy from carbon dioxide and inorganic compounds such as

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - nitrficiation, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, and decomposition.

Explanation:

Thiobacillus denitrification is a facultative, obligate chemolithoautotrophic anaerobic bacterium that is well known for its ability to couple the oxidation of inorganic sulfur-based compounds to denitrification.

The name of the bacterium is derived from its function or the metabolic ability as it performs denitrification on thio (sulfur) based inorganic compounds by the process of oxidation. This process helps in bioremediate groundwater by these processes of nitrogen fixation by oxidation of inorganic compounds of sulfur.

Thus, the correct answer is - nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, and decomposition.

How are agglutinins like security guards

cestrela7 [59]

Agglutinins is a antibody or other substance that causes particles to coagulate from another more thickened mass.

You are a scientist who discovers three new species of beetles in the jungles of South America. Describe, in detail, how a prote

Elenna [48]

Since all of the three beetle species posses the protein, we can use it to determine their relations. We can study the sequence of the amino acids that make the protein and the 3D structure of the protein. The more differences there are in amino acid sequences and the structure of the protein, the species are more distantly related because they have diverged a long time ago and their genes that produce that protein have undergone many changes over time.

Sort the statements based on whether they describe DNA replication in eukaryotes or prokaryotes. Replication takes place in the

Ilya [14]

In eukaryotes, replication takes place in the nucleus as prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus and replication takes place in the cytoplasm. The nucleus of the eukaryotes is the location where genetic material (DNA) is found; in prokaryotes, the genetic material is condensed in the cytoplasm called the nucleoid. There are multiple replication forks or multiple origins of replication in eukaryotes in contrast to prokaryotes which only has one origin of replication. Lastly, replication in eukaryotes occurs at multiple points along the chromosome; in contrast with prokaryotes where it occurs at just one point on the chromosome.
