Heat Transfer Mechanisms 1.In your own words, using the pennies activity, define the three different heat transfer mechanisms. Your definitions should include:
(i) information about how energy is moving
(ii) what is happening microscopically (that is, at the atomic level)
(iii) what phase(s) of materials is usually involved.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The three modes of heat transfer are: 1) Radiation 2) Convection 3) Conduction

Explanation:

RADIATION:

It is the mode of heat transfer which requires no medium because the transfer of energy takes place in the form of electromagnetic radiations. The spectrum of radiations that contribute to the heat transfer via radiation is the wavelength ranging from 0.1 μm to 100 μm.

For example the heat from the sun reaches the earth via radiation that passes through space and then through the atmosphere of the earth.

CONVECTION:

It is the mode of heat transfer that takes place in a fluid matter. The molecules in this case move from one place to another due to the difference in density developed as a result of heat absorption.

Example, the boiling of water. When the water in a utensil is heated, the heat is supplied at the bottom. In such a case the molecules of the water absorb the heat resulting in increased intermolecular spacing and hence the water at the bottom becomes the least dense in the bulk of water mass in the utensil hence rises up at to the free surface of the fluid mass. Then the densest mass of the fluid occupies the bottom space and is heated by the heat source supplied. This chain continues.

CONDUCTION:

This is the process of heat transfer from one molecule to the next neighbouring molecules. The propagation of heat energy occurs in a sequential manner starting from the molecule nearest to the heat source. The microscopic phenomenon happens in the form of lattice vibrations that are responsible for the transfer of heat energy via conduction.

Example, while heating of a pan the base heats up at first being continuously exposed to heat whereas the handle of the pan being far away from the source heats up after a long time.

Answers

Answer:

Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into small water-soluble food molecules so that they can be absorbed into the watery blood plasma. In certain organisms, these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the blood stream.

Explanation:

according to wikipedia!

Digestion is nothing but breaking down of substances into simpler forms, which the body can use. We eat many things and they have very complex compounds, our body cannot use these compounds. So, different parts of our digestive system breaks down different compounds to simpler forms, so that our body can use it for different functions.

c. Lesser proportion of motor neurons to muscle fibres
d. Begin contractions with muscle already 50% contraction
e. Lower sarcoplasm pH
f. Increased stimulus frequency.
g. Circular arrangement of muscle fascicles
h. increased requirement.

Answers

Answer:

1. Weaker contraction:

a. Potassium accumulate in the sarcoplasm

d. Begin contractions with muscle already 50% contraction

e. Lower sarcoplasm pH

g. Circular arrangement of muscle fascicles

2. Stronger Contraction

b. Increase in muscle belly circumference

c. Lesser proportion of motor neurons to muscle fibres

f. Increased stimulus frequency.

h. increased requirement.

Explanation:

Sarcoplasm refers to the cytoplasm of muscle cells which contains ATP, enzymes, and a variety of ions, including potassium (K+). The negative potential required during muscle activity is produced from the disequilibrium of ionic concentrations (mostly Na+ and K+) across the membrane, which is generated through Na+/K+ ATPase pumps. During contraction, a muscle shortens, and thus its circumference increases. The generation of lactic acid is known to lower pH in the sarcoplasm and thus hinder the force and power development of the muscle fibers. Muscle fascicles can be arranged in concentric rings, it is a common pattern in sphincter muscles that modulate the opening and closing of orifices (which have weak contractions). A motor unit refers to a single efferent neuron and all of the muscle fibers it modulates. Each individual muscle fiber is innervated by one motor neuron, whereas a single motor neuron can innervate many muscle fibers. Finally, higher intensity/frequency are known to induce stronger muscular contractions, but also produce a stronger decline in force and cause more rapid muscle fatigue.

When curare, a neuromuscular poison, is dropped onto an isolated muscle-nerve preparation in a laboratory, the muscle does not contract when the nerve is stimulated, even though neurotransmitter is released from the nerve cell. Why does this happen

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Whenever the nerve terminal's action potential depolarizes, calcium enters the cell through the channels. Calcium allows acetylcholine (ACh) to be released more easily.  These ACh molecules subsequently circulate into the synaptic cleft and attach to the motor end-plate of the nicotinic cholinergic receptors. Acetylcholine molecules connect to nicotine ion-channel receptors present on cell membrane the of muscle cells, enabling the ion channels to open. Calcium ions then enter the muscle cell, kicking off a series of events that eventually result in muscular contraction.

Curare is a kind of neuromuscular relaxant blocker that is non-depolarized in nature. Nondepolarizing muscle relaxants work as competitive agonists, binding to ACh receptors but failing to activate ion channels. As a result, they inhibit ACh from bonding, preventing the development of endplate potentials and inducing muscle paralysis.

Scientists have been studying the size of three populations in a river in Ireland. In this ecosystem, pike (a type of big fish), and perch eat snails. The data showed that all three populations were stable. Then the snail population increased suddenly. What will likely happen to the size of the perch population as a result? The size of the perch population will...

Options:

A. Stay the same. The size of it's consumer population did not change, so the number of deaths in the perch population did not change. There will be the same number of births and deaths in the perch population.

B. Decrease. The larger snail population will take more energy storage molecules from the ecosystem, leaving fewer available for the perch population. This will lead to more deaths than births in the perch population.

C. Increase. The larger snail population will provide more energy storage molecules for the perch population, so they will reproduce more. This will lead to more births than deaths in the perch population.

D. Increase. An increase in any population within an ecosystem will lead to an increase in the sizes of all other populations in the ecosystem.

The bacterium Methylophilus methylotrophus can use methanol and ammonia for protein synthesis. The glutamate dehydrogenase gene from E. coli was introduced into M. methylotrophus using recombinant DNA techniques. Under high ammonia conditions, the introduction of the glutamate dehydrogenase gene into M. methylotrophus resulted in an increase in protein yield. Select the statements that are reasonable explanations for the increased protein yield in the modified M. methylotrophus. Glutamate dehydrogenase catalyzes the formation of glutamate and glutamine in a two-step process. Both glutamate and glutamine play a key role in amino acid synthesis, thus an increase in levels of glutamate and glutamine increase protein synthesis. Glutamate dehydrogenase has a low affinity for NH^+_4, and can only catalyze the formation of glutamate from alpha-ketoglutarate and NH^+_4, when the concentration of NH^+_4 is high. Glutamate dehydrogenase has a high affinity for NH^+_4, thus the rate of glutamate synthesis increases exponentially under high ammonia conditions. Glutamate is the amino group donor for most transamination reactions involving amino acids, thus an increase in glutamate concentration increases protein synthesis.

Answers

Answer:

- Glutamate dehydrogenase has a low affinity for NH+4, and can only catalyze the formation of glutamate from alpha-ketoglutarate and NH+4, when the concentration of NH+4 is high.  

- Glutamate is the amino group donor for most transamination reactions involving amino acids, thus an increase in glutamate concentration increases protein synthesis.

Explanation:

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) is an enzyme found in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, which is known to catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of glutamate (Glu) to alpha-ketoglutarate and ammonia at the same time the oxidation of NADH to NAD. In bacteria, this enzyme (GLDH) is efficient only at high concentrations of the ammonium cation (NH4+), because it has a low affinity for NH4+. Moreover, transamination is a pathway that involves the transfer of an amino group from one amino acid to a ketoacid in order to form new amino acids (this reaction is responsible for the deamination of most amino acids). Glu is the donor of amino groups in most of the reactions catalyzed by enzymes involved in the transamination between an amino acid and an alpha-keto acid. In consequence, in presence of GLDH, a high concentration of Glu will increase the production of new amino acids and therefore also protein synthesis.
