E=MC2 is the formula for the amount of energy (E) derived from a certain mass (M) times the speed of light squared (C2). The speed of light is a huge number, and multiplying it by itself results in an unimaginably higher number. Hence, the energy resulting from the formula is likewise huge.

Why is fission important to the splitting of the atom?

Fission is important for splitting atoms because it releases a large amount of energy. This energy can be harnessed for various purposes, such as generating electricity in nuclear power plants or powering nuclear weapons. Fission also plays a crucial role in the creation of nuclear reactors for research and medical applications.


What is the general eqaution for triglyceride?

The general equation for a triglyceride is C55H98O6, where C represents carbon, H represents hydrogen, and O represents oxygen atoms. Triglycerides are composed of a glycerol molecule linked to three fatty acid chains.


What is nuclear fission and its relationship to nuclear bomb?

Simply put, nuclear fission is the splitting of an atomic nucleus. It relates to radioactivity in that some isotopes of some elements (and not very many) naturally decay by spontaneous fission. There is a separate question about what spontaneous fission is, and it is linked below.


What is a channel linked receptor?

A channel linked receptor transduces functions of the same protein molecule. An example of a channel linked receptor are neurotransmitters in the brain.


How do you know if a trait is sex linked dominant or sex linked recessive?

A trait is sex-linked dominant if it appears in every generation and affects both males and females. It is sex-linked recessive if it skips generations, more common in males, and passed from carrier females to affected males. Mendelian inheritance patterns can help determine if a trait is sex-linked dominant or sex-linked recessive.

The form of energy in nuclear reaction?

The form of energy in a nuclear reaction is primarily released in the form of electromagnetic radiation (gamma rays) and kinetic energy of the reaction products. This energy is a result of the conversion of mass into energy as dictated by Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2.
