What is the significance of vibrational degrees of freedom in a diatomic molecule?

The vibrational degrees of freedom in a diatomic molecule refer to the ways in which the atoms in the molecule can vibrate relative to each other. These vibrations play a crucial role in determining the molecule's energy levels and overall behavior. By studying these vibrational modes, scientists can gain insights into the molecule's structure, stability, and reactivity.


What is bigger an animal cell or a molecule?

An animal cell by a trillion times over. A single molecule would be a single tail of a hydrocarbon which is used to make the lipid bilayer. This is made up of millions of phospholipids. Each has a tail and this is only the outer membrane of the cell which contains a huge amount of material.


What motor molecule is associated with the microtubules in cilia and flagella?

Dynein is the motor molecule associated with the microtubules in cilia and flagella. Dynein is responsible for generating movement by sliding the microtubules past each other.


Is it necessary for a cell to produce one enzyme molecule for every substrate molecule that's needs to be catalyzed?

No and, by all means, no. For each and every substrate there are enzymatically (repeatedly) produced products.

What gives a cell DNA?

DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell and contains genetic instructions for cellular functions. It is passed down from parent cells to daughter cells during cell division. Each DNA molecule is made up of two strands that are composed of smaller units called nucleotides.


In Louisiana when determining the amount for child support should the new spouse of each parent be considered?

No, only the biological parent is responsible for supporting his or her child/children.


What happens when hemoglobin is degraded?

The part of the blood that is responsible for carrying oxygen is hemoglobin. The hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the alveoli of the lungs. Then the hemoglobin releases the oxygen at the cells. The part of the hemoglobin molecule that is directly responsible for carrying the oxygen is the iron ion in the center of the molecule's structure. The iron ion changes from a Fe +2 ion to a Fe +3 when carrying the oxygen. Then the hemoglobin reaches the cell, the iron ion decomposes back to the more stable Fe +2 state, replacing the oxygen with a water molecule.


What does hemogoblin do?

a red protein responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood of vertebrates. Its molecule comprises four subunits, each containing an iron atom bound to a heme group.(From THE Macintosh dictionary). a red protein responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood of vertebrates.

Is the basic substance of each cell water?

Dear friend, I think you mean "each molecule of water". If so then it is H2O, or two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. These three go to make up the smallest part or molecule of water.
