In May 2016, scientists discovered a eukaryote organism from a group known
as Monocercomonoides that lacks functional
mitochondria. Research this organism, and
answer these questions:
• Does this organism still meet the definition
of a eukaryote? Why or why not?
Why can this organism survive without
mitochondria?
Without mitochondria, does this organism
still carry out all the basic functions of life?
Should the organism be considered a life-
form?

Problem page combustion of hydrocarbons such as pentane ( c5 h12 ) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere can trap the sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. for this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide.(a) write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid pentane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. (b) suppose 0.350 kg of pentane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 20.0 degree c. calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced.be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

In a laboratory, 1.55mg of an organic compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is burned for analysis. this combustion resulted in the formation of 1.45mg of carbon dioxide and .89 mg of water. what is the empirical formula for this compound?

What natural processes produce large quantities of co2
