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.

A maternal effect can cause the offspring phenotype ratio to depart from that of classic Mendelian inheritance. In a species of

MArishka [77]

Answer:

A. 4 right handed coil:0, left- handed coil

Explanation:

According to MENDELION CROSS:

We will get NN, Nn,Nn,nn

NN, Nn, Nn are the 3 right handed coiling and nn is left handed coiling.

But in case of shell coiling in snails, maternal inheritance is applied in which offspring is decided only by phenotype.

Maternal traits: Here,female parent has right handed shell coiling. so, all the offsprings will have the same.

Hence, the phenotypic ratio will be:

4 Right handed coil: 0 Left handed coil

Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi

Debora [2.8K]

This is because if the two metabolic processes were to be active at at the same time;

Two molecules of ATPs and Guanosine triphophate (sometimes used for energy transport) will be expended per each cycle, with no compensatory rate of replacements present at the moment in the cell,this affects cell metabolism for energy availability

2 Both Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis are both exergonic processes in cells. The heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently; the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid cycle can metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production. Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for Glycolysis to continue. Therefore to sustain Glycolysis at this rate continuous supply of glucose is supplied from Gluconeogenesis.
