What are the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration?

Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP + Heat + Energy C6H12O6 +6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (ATP+Heat)

If everyone recycles how would it effect global warming?

Recycling saves energy, so if everyone in the world did it, then a lot of energy would be saved. If this is fossil fuel energy, then that is a very good thing.

Man's contribution to global warming is caused by our creation of power by burning fossil fuels, which release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Building nuclear, like France does, is one way to economically help here. Another is to move entirely to renewable energy.

13% of man's contribution to global warming is caused by automobiles. Electric cars fueled by nuclear would certainly help here.

Recycling is a great idea, but stopping burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) would be much more effective.

What is the heviest element?

The heviest element is mercury. It is heavy because it is so dense.

The sodium-potassium pump transports what?

The sodium-potassium pump transports sodium ions (Na+) out of the cell and potassium ions (K+) into the cell against their concentration gradients, utilizing ATP for energy. This process helps maintain the resting membrane potential and is crucial for proper cell function.

What happens to red blood cells that are agglutinated?

red blood celld that are agglutinated are destroyed by the immune system. If they remain in your system as damaged it is unhealthy. This is because it can cause major problems such as organ failure.

Why add salt to a warm mist humidifier?

The warm air humidifier works by using two electrodes to conduct electricity through the water in order to vaporize it. The electricity will not be conducted unless there are electrolytes in the water, which are provided by the Na+ and Cl- ions from the dissolved salt.

What determines lung compliance?

Lung compliance is determined by the elasticity of the lung tissue and the surface tension of the alveoli. Compliance decreases with conditions that stiffen the lung tissue, such as fibrosis, or increase surface tension, such as pulmonary edema. Compliance also decreases with aging and certain diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

What is 38.7 Celsius in Fahrenheit?

Start by taking the number in Celsius and multiply it by 9. Then divide that number by 5, and then add 32. This is how you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit or use the equation F = (9/5)C + 32

In this case, the answer is about 101.66 degrees Fahrenheit.

Does sterile water have to be refrigerated?

Sterile water does not have to be refrigerated. However, to remain sterile, it must be kept in a clean, sealed container.

What are the conditions for rusting?

For rusting to occur, iron must be exposed to oxygen and moisture in the air. This triggers a chemical reaction known as oxidation, which causes the iron to form iron oxide, or rust. Presence of an electrolyte such as salt can accelerate the rusting process.

Can wearing a vest under your shirt keep you cooler?

Wearing a vest under your shirt may help you stay cooler by wicking away sweat and providing ventilation, but the effectiveness can depend on the material of the vest and the level of physical activity. In general, lightweight, breathable materials like moisture-wicking fabrics can help keep you cooler.

What is produced when yeast respires anaerobically?

Yeast produces ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide when it respires anaerobically. This process is commonly known as alcoholic fermentation and is used in baking and brewing industries.

What is your minstrel cycle?

The questioner may mean menstrual cycle, that is, a woman's period. On the other hand, The Bicycling Guitarist Chris Watson has been called a traveling minstrel, so for decades he has called his 1977 Schwinn ten-speed bicycle a "Minstrel Cycle." There is also a folk metal band that calls itself The Minstrel Cycle and also a rock opera by that name.

Group of organs working together to perform a specific job?

An organ system is a group of organs that work together to perform specific functions in the body. Examples include the circulatory system, digestive system, and respiratory system. Each organ within the system has a unique role that contributes to the overall function of the system.

What is the purpose of albumin test?

According to Lab Tests Online, a public resource on clinical lab testing, that is non-commercial and created for patients: A physician orders a blood albumin test (usually along with several other tests) if a person seems to have symptoms of a liver disorder or nephrotic syndrome. Doctors may also order blood albumin tests when they want to check a person's nutritional status, for example, when someone has lost a lot of weight. Low albumin levels can suggest liver disease. Other liver enzyme tests are ordered to determine exactly which type of liver disease. Low albumin levels can reflect diseases in which the kidneys cannot prevent albumin from leaking from the blood into the urine and being lost. In this case, the amount of albumin (or protein) in the urine also may be measured. Low albumin levels can also be seen in inflammation, shock, and malnutrition. Low albumin levels may also suggest conditions in which your body does not properly absorb and digest protein (like Crohn's disease or sprue) or in which large volumes of protein are lost from the intestines. High albumin levels usually reflect dehydration.

What is 37.0 Celsius to Fahrenheit?

That's the average human body temperature, 98.6F. Celsius (a.k.a. Kelvin) can be converted to Fahrenheit as follows: "C x 1.8 + 32 = F"

=====whoa, whoa. Kelvin is SOOO not Celsius. The formula seems right though.

Is it more ecological to use paper plates or to wash normal plates?

It is generally more ecological to wash normal plates, as paper plates contribute to deforestation and generate waste. However, the ecological impact depends on factors such as the water and energy used for washing, as well as the production and disposal of normal plates. Opting for reusable plates and washing them efficiently with minimal water and energy can be a more sustainable choice.

What are the advantage and disadvantage of a fat belly boss?

Advantage: A fat belly boss may appear more approachable and less intimidating, fostering a friendlier work environment.

Disadvantage: A fat belly boss could be perceived as unhealthy, leading to concerns about their ability to lead effectively and set a good example for employees.

What is Proceed-preceede model?

The Proceed-Precede model is a framework used in public health to plan, implement, and evaluate health promotion programs. It consists of two parts: the "Precede" phase focuses on assessing the needs of the target population and identifying the health outcomes to be achieved, while the "Proceed" phase involves planning, implementing, and evaluating the intervention strategies to address those needs. This model emphasizes the importance of starting with a thorough assessment before designing interventions to ensure they are effective and tailored to the specific context.

What is the averages mans length?

The average stride length for men is 0.78 m and 0.7 m for women.

An approximation to your personal walking stride is multiplying your height with 0.415 (or 0.413 for women). For example:

1.82 (your height) x 0.415 = 0.76 m

Another way of finding out is simply taking ten steps, measuring the length and dividing that by 10.

How is acrylamide made?

Acrylamide is made when the starches and sugars of food react to heating. It is especially present in french fries, potato chips and baked goods. You know acrylamide is happening when the food gets golden/darker. Acrylamide is an agent that has been proven to cause cancer in laboratory animals, so some scientists believe that it might cause cancer in humans as well. Acrylamide: C3H3ONH2 is formed when it is heated from 120 and 190 °Celsius.

Can mold cause boils?

Yes, mold causes boils. It is also said to cause a number of other problems such as allergies, infections, lung and upper respiratory congestion.
