Answer:
22. C
23. C
24. Not clear, maybe 18%
25. Left ventricle, because according to the graph nearly 50% of the organ contains mitochondria, more than the left atrium.
Explanation:
22. Active transport requires cell's energy to move molecules, usually in the form of ATP.
23. This is a trick question, you might think it is diffusion or osmosis, but is is exocytosis. Diffusion and osmosis don't require vesicles for transport. It isn't endocytosis, because that is moving molecules inside the cell. The question asks for moving out the cell.
24. Look at the chart, it is less than 20, but more than 10 and more than halfway. I am not sure exactly the percentage, I would approximate it to be 18%.
25. Most likely left ventricle.
please give thanks :)
Why does humus tend to increase with the clay content of soil?
A.
As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which decreases the rate of decomposition.
B.
As the clay content increases, the amount of plant lignin in the soil increases.
C.
As the clay content increases, the permeability decreases, which increases the rate of decomposition.
D.
As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which increases the rate of decomposition.
Answer:
A.
As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which decreases the rate of decomposition.
Explanation:
This is true because, humus which is the dark rich matter made up of organic matter would be able to be adsorb into the clay content of the soil due to the size of the particles component. The surface area in the soil is a strong factor when compared with other soil type with smaller surface area.

The resting membrane potential of a neuron is generated by Group of answer choices the selectivity of the membrane to pass positive charges only. the greater mobility of small ions. diffusion of ions as a result of their concentration gradients. All of them repulsion of positive and negative charges.
Answer: diffusion of ions as a result of their concentration gradients.
Explanation:
Resting membrane potential can be defined as the basic charge of the cell. It is defined by the concentration difference between the ions due to the action of the ion pumps. The differential permeability of the membrane is because of the charge on the ions and leads to the creation of the ion channels. The negative charged ions accumulate on the inner side of the cell.

Explanation:
Identify the phases in the life cycle of small and big stars. supernova: In this stage, the star collapses and produces elements heavier than iron. planetary nebula: In this stage, the star emits strong energy pulses that push away the outer layers creating a cloud of ionized gas around the core. neutron star: In this stage, the star has reduced to an extremely dense core. white dwarf: In this stage, the star has reduced to a dense core.
Explanation:
Some Astronomers believe the life cycle of small stars begins in this order:
Planetary nebula phase: this phase is the result of the previous red giant phase (when the star turns red in color). However, at this stage, the star keeps expanding, glowing, and getting hotter as it strives to complete its life--cycle.White dwarf phase: As the name implies, the star now has a reduced size and a dense core than during the Nebula phase, while still glowing with surface temperatures of over 100,000°C.Neutron star: This stage occurs next after the White dwarf phase which may result in the final death of the star. Here the star is reduced to an extremely dense core.While the life cycle of big stars begins in the order:
Supernova phase: At this phase, the star collapses and produces other heavier elements.Neutron star phase or may formBlack Holes.Unstable individual atoms are made stable as a result of

Separation of homologues occurs during
Group of answer choices
meiosis I.
fertilization.
mitosis.
meiosis II.
Answer:
Meiosis I
Explanation:
The separation of homologues occurs during meiosis I. The Option A.
When does the separation of homologues occur during cell division?During meiosis I, the process of cell division specifically designed for the formation of gametes, the separation of homologous chromosomes occurs. Meiosis I consists of several phases including prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, and telophase I.
In prophase I, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material through a process called crossing over. During metaphase I, the pairs of homologous chromosomes align at the center of the cell. Then, in anaphase I, the homologous chromosomes separate and move toward opposite poles of the cell.

Which compound that provides energy in cells is made in every tube where cellular respiration is occuring?
Answer:
ATP
Explanation:
Adenosine triphosphate, commonly known as ATP, is the chemical molecule that stores and provides/releases energy in cells. ATP is needed by the cells of every living organism and is obtained via a process called CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
Cellular respiration is the process whereby cells breakdown food molecules (sugar) to synthesize energy storing molecules called ATP. Hence, in every tube where cellular respiration is occuring, ATP is the produced molecule that provides energy.
