The answer is the first one: catabolism.

Explanation:

  • Catabolism: This is the process of breaking down complex molecules into simpler ones, releasing energy in the process. It is a key part of cellular metabolism where large molecules such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are degraded to produce energy.
  • Anabolism: This is the process of building up complex molecules from simpler ones, which requires energy. It is the opposite of catabolism and involves the synthesis of cellular components like proteins and nucleic acids.

In summary, catabolism is the degradation of complex compounds during cellular metabolism.

Calculating tax incidence Suppose that the local government of Columbus decides to institute a tax on soda producers. Before the tax, 20 million liters of soda were sold every month at a price of 11 per liter. After the tax, 15 million liters of soda are sold every month; consumers pay, 16 per liter, and producers receive 15 per liter (after paying the tax). The amount of the tax on a liter of soda is 1 per liter, Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is 5 per liter, and the burden that falls on producers is 1 per liter. True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been the same as if the tax had been levied on consumers.

Problem 3-1: A concrete cylinder having a diameter of 6.00 in. and gage length of 12 in. is tested in compression. The results of the test are reported in the table as load versus contraction. Draw the stress-strain diagram using scales of 1 in. =0.05 ksi and 1 in. =0.2(10^-3) in./in. . From the diagram, determine approximately the modulus of elasticity.
