What is ln(10)-ln(5)?

Laws of logs tells us that ln(a) - ln(b) = ln(a/b) Therefore ln(10)-ln(5) = ln(10/5) = ln(2)

differentiate 4x^3 + 3x^2 -5x +1

when differentiating, we multiply the power by the coefficient and then take the power away by 1 so : y= 4x^3 + 3x^2 -5x +1 then 4 x 3= 12 and 3-1 = 2 meaning the solution is 12x^2. 2 x 3 = 6 and 2-1 = 1 giv...

Use logarithms to solve the equation 2^(5x) = 3^(2x+1) , giving the answer correct to 3 significant figures

Taking the log of both sides we get 5x * ln2 = (2x+1) * ln3. Taking everything that contains x to the left side: x * (5 ln2 - 2 ln3) = ln3. Therefore x=ln3/(5 ln2 - 2 ln3) x is approx 0.866

Why do 3 protons need to pass from the intermembrane space into the matrix of the mitochondrion in order to form 1 ATP molecule?

It has to do with the structure of the ATP synthase protein. The part in the centre moves 120 degrees with each prototon that passes through. This makes the 3 ATP/ADP binding sites to change shape. Each of t...

Using your knowledge of genotype and phenotype, explain why identical twins may have different personalities.

As identical (monozygotic) twins share 100% of the same genetic material, we can say that their genotype is identical. However, this is only an example of how nature can influence behaviour that is partly ge...
