A certain chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine in a 1.5 oz. Serving. The king-size version of the chocolate bar is 85 grams. How much caffeine, in mg, would you consume if you eat the entire king-size bar?Fill in the answer in the blank provided. Mg of caffeine

Answers

Answer:

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

Explanation:

This question can be reframed in the manner below for better understanding.

If 1.5 oz or ounce of a chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine, how many milligrams (mg) of caffeine is contained in 85 grams of the same chocolate bar.

Firstly, the ounce should be converted to grams

If 1 ounce = 28.35g

1.5 ounce = ?

= 1.5 × 28.35/1

=42.53g

Hence, 42.53g of the chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine

85g of the chocolate will contain

42.53g = 6mg

85g = X

where X is the amount of caffeine that will be consumed in mg

X = 85 × 6/42.53

X = 11.99 mg

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

21. Which of the following statements about catabolic pathways is false?
a. Carbohydrates can feed into oxidative phosphorylation.
b. Glycogen can be broken down into glucose and feed into glycolysis.
c. Amino acids can feed into pyruvate oxidation.
d. Fatty acids can feed into the citric acid cycle.

Answers

from my point of view I think the answer should amino acid can fit into pyruvate oxidation

Carbohydrates can not feed into oxidative phosphorylation, firstly carbohydrates catabolize through glycolysis and the citric acid cycle and release electrons which feed into oxidative phosphorylation.

What are catabolic pathways?

Acetyl-CoA, a chemical that "feeds" the citric acid cycle, can be produced from pyruvate (a byproduct of glycolysis), fatty acid -oxidation, ketone bodies, and amino acid metabolism.

The citric acid cycle is "cataplerotic" when molecules from other routes enter it for catabolism. Amino acids catalyze the breakdown of pyruvate.

Alanine, serine, glycine (through serine), and cysteine are among the amino acids with three carbon atoms that are transformed into pyruvate (the entry point for the citric acid cycle or gluconeogenesis)

Therefore, carbohydrates can feed into oxidative phosphorylation is false about the catabolic pathway, hence option A is correct.

Explanation:

The number of trophic levels are limited. when one available energy is transferred from one trophic level to another trophic level, about 10 percent of energy is transferred whereas the rest of the energy about 90 percent is released in the form of heat energy.

Answer:

This type of natural selection occurs when there are selective pressures working against two extremes of a trait and therefore the intermediate or “middle” trait is selected for. If we look at a distribution of traits in the population, it is noticeable that a standard distribution is followed: Example:  For a plant, the plants that are very tall are exposed to more wind and are at risk of being blown over. The plants that are very short fail to get enough sunlight to prosper. Therefore, the plants that are a middle height between the two get both enough sunlight and protection from the wind.

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of one extreme of a trait. Therefore when looking at a distribution of traits in a population, a graph tends to lean more to one side: Example: Giraffes with the longest necks are able to reach more leaves to each. Selective pressures will work in the advantage of the longer neck giraffes and therefore the distribution of the trait within the population will shift towards the longer neck trait.

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of the two extremes and against the intermediate trait. This type of selection is not as common. When looking at a trait distribution, there are two higher peaks on both ends with a minimum in the middle as such: Example: An area that has black, white and grey bunnies contains both black and white rocks. Both the traits for white and black will be favored by natural selection since they both prove useful for camouflage. The intermediate trait of grey does not prove as useful and therefore selective pressures act against the trait.
