Answer:

The rusting of iron may be defined as the process of formation of the oxide layer by the attack of oxygen and moisture on the surface of iron. This rusting changes the color and reduces the value of iron.

The iron turns into the brownish red powder due to the oxidation of iron. The oxygen in the presence of moisture reacts with iron to form a brown layer known as rust. The reactants are oxygen, water and iron. The products are iron oxide (brown rust).

The brownish-red powder on iron is called rust. It is formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture. It is called oxidizing or rusting due to exposure to water and air.

The reactants are oxygen and iron the products are carbon dioxide and water and the process is oxidization.

Explanation:

ADP, O2, NADH

Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’s cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis).

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration. The process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria this forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the ET see molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons form molecules of water.

If you have placed starch and water in the beaker and placed glucose and iodine inside the dialysis bag, what results would you

zepelin [54]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The osmosis will be observed in the beaker leading the movement of water into the dialysis bag from the beaker.</u>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Osmosis is the process of movement of water from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.
In the beaker the solution will be dilute than the glucose iodine solution in bag.
Due to this concentration difference, the water water from the starch water solution is moved into the bag through the dialysis membrane.

Hence the process of osmosis will be observed.

Why were Archaea and Bacteria grouped together by biologists until recently?

Norma-Jean [14]

Archaea and Bacteria were grouped together because they were both Prokaryotes since they had no nucleus. Scientists then realized they were different because archaea can live in extreme environments, and bacteria can't.

Which of the following modifies and smoothes the respiratory pattern?

stealth61 [152]

The correct answer is: A) pontine respiratory centers

The respiratory centre in the pons is responsible for generating and maintaining the rhythm of respiration. Besides this elementary function, it also has the ability to adjust respiration rhythm in c response to physiological changes. Respiratory centre consists of three major respiratory groups of neurons:

• The dorsal respiratory group (DRG)- initiates inspiration (inhalation)

• the ventral respiratory group (VRG)-responsible for exhalation

• Pontine respiratory group- includes the pneumotaxic (controls both the rate and the pattern of breathing) and apneustic centers (promotes inhalation by sending signals to dorsal group).
