Why is there more nitrogen than oxygen in the air?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Nitrogen is a stable gas and doesn't want to react to anything. When you breathe in air, you breathe in nitrogen along with oxygen. However, as oxygen gets absorbed into your body, since nitrogen is stable, you breathe it back out, leaving more nitrogen in the air.

Answer:

The force of spring will be "3.75 N". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Spring constant, K = 75.0 N/m

x₁ = 0.200 m

x₂ = 0.150 m

So that,

⇒ [tex]x=x_{1}-x_{2}[/tex]

⇒    [tex]=0.200-0.15[/tex]

⇒    [tex]=0.05 \ m[/tex]

Now,

Force of spring will be:

⇒  [tex]F=K\times x[/tex]

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒      [tex]=75\times 0.05[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=3.75 \ N[/tex]

Answer:

Your classmate describes a growing baby as “a ball of multiplying cells that eventually grows large enough to form a baby.” Explain why this statement isn’t completely accurate.

Answers

Answer:

Please, see the answer below.

Explanation:

The statement is inaccurate because a growing baby is not just a ball of multiplying cells that eventually grows large enough to form a baby.

After fertilization and the formation of a single-cell zygote, the zygote continues to divide to form a ball of cells. However, at some points, the cells start to differentiate to give rise to various organs that make up the baby.

Without differentiation, there is not way the dividing cells will give rise to baby. Hence, a growing baby should be rather viewed as a ball of multiplying cells that eventually differentiates to form a baby.

Answer: Embryos start as a ball-like structure of rapidly dividing cells. However, at a certain point in development, these cells diversify and bind together to form larger structures, such as tissues, organs, and, eventually, full systems.

Answer:

The main job of a kidney is to filter toxins and waste products from the blood. In dialysis, the machine takes in blood from the artery and pumps it through a semipermeable membrane. This function is similar to that of the capillaries in the kidney. They allow waste products to filter from the kidneys. The waste excretes into a bag in a manner similar to how the bladder excretes urine from the body. The clean blood pumps back into the body and is carried back to the heart via a vein.

Answers

Answer:

1. Glucose And Oxygen.

2. Transpiration is the process by which water is lost in the form of water vapour by evaporation from the surface of leaves and other serial parts of plant .

3. A. Cooling Effect : The water keeps on evaporating from the leaf surface during transpiration . The heat required for evaporation of water is obtained from the plant itself and thus, the plant cools itself when it is hot outside.

B. Transpiration Pull : As water evaporates from the leaf surface, the roots pull up more water from the soil to make up for the water loss during transpiration .As a result, important mineral salts are also brought along with the water. These salts are necessary for the growth of the plant .

4. Leaf Tendrils : Sweet Pea

Spines : Cactus

Scale Leaves : Onion

5. Pitcher Plant, Venus FlyTrap, Blodderwort

6. Normally plants propogate with the help of seeds contained in the fruits . But some new plants may also be produced from other part of the plant such as the roots, stems, and leaves . This type of reproduction is called vegetative propogation .

Which summary below correctly describes what occurs during transcription?
A DNA template is used to create an mRNA strand.
An mRNA template is used to create a DNA strand.
A DNA template is used to create a ribosome.
An mRNA template is used to create a tRNA strand.

Answers

Answer:

A DNA template is used to create an mRNA strand.

Explanation:

Transcription basically means a written or printed representation of something, if we connect that analogy to DNA, we are using the DNA as our template to write/create an mRNA strand out of it, basically transcribing the DNA.

The correct answer is a DNA template is used to create an mRNA strand.

What is the role of DNA template?

The DNA template is used by RNA polymerase to produce a strand of RNA with a nucleotide sequence that is the same as the coding strand for the production of functional RNA units and mRNA for making proteins.

How do you get mRNA from DNA?

mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus using the nucleotide sequence of DNA as a template. This process requires nucleotide triphosphates as substrates and is catalyzed by the enzyme RNA polymerase II.

How are viruses different from bacteria?

Answers

Answer:

Your correct answer is option A. Viruses contain only RNA

Explanation:

Viruses are smaller than any bacteria. In fact, the largest virus is actually way smaller than the smallest bacterium ever. All viruses have a protein coat and a core of genetic material of either RNA or DNA. Unlike bacteria, viruses can't survive without a host. They can only reproduce by attaching themselves to the cells. In most cases, they definitely reprogram the cells to make new viruses until the cells burst and die. In other cases, they turn normal cells into malignant or cancerous cells. Also unlike bacteria, most of the viruses do indeed cause disease and they are quite specific about the cells they attack.

The correct statement that highlights the difference between viruses and bacteria is "Viruses cannot survive outside a host." The correct option is B.

Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, meaning they require a host cell to carry out their life cycle.

They do not possess the necessary cellular machinery or metabolic processes to replicate on their own.

Viruses invade host cells and hijack their cellular machinery to reproduce.

When a virus infects a host, it injects its genetic material into the host cell.

The viral genetic material then takes control of the host cell's machinery and directs it to produce new virus particles.

Viruses can have either RNA or DNA as their genetic material, but not both. Viruses have RNA genomes, while others have DNA genomes.Viruses are significantly smaller than bacteria. Viruses are typically composed of a nucleic acid core (either RNA or DNA) surrounded by a protein coat called a capsid. Viruses are not cells and do not have cellular structures. They are considered acellular particles because they lack the essential characteristics of living organisms.

Thus, the correct option is B.

Explanation:

I hope this will help you:)

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process through which autotrophs are bale to produce their own food. The Process is named so because photo means sun's light and synthesis means creating. It involves the Plants or other autotrophs absorbing the sun's light and also carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by respiration. As a result of Photosynthesis, we obtain what is known as oxygen. This is, in fact, the biproduct of the process. Mainly, Photosynthesis occurs due to the presence of Chlorophyll which give leaves their green colour.

Key:

Autotrophs: Those who have the ability to produce their own food.

Biproduct: The extra result of a scientific equation.

Chlorophyll:  a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, etc.

Answers

The provided question is incomplete as it lacks the essential information to give answer. however, the complete question is attached as image.

Answer:

The correct answer is option :  c. 10hrs: 14min: 10sec.

Explanation:

The question provides the following information to answer the question:

The P wave takes time to reach Seismic station A = 8 min:20 sec

P-wave arrived at seismic station A at : 10hrs:22min:30sec

So, the origin time of earthquake would be: 10hrs:22min:30sec - 8 min:20 sec = 10hrs: 14min: 10sec.

Thus, the correct answer is :  10hrs: 14min: 10sec.

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 30,000 of these balls, with the following results: Sales (30,000 balls) $750,000 Variable expenses 450,000 Contribution margin 300,000 Fixed expenses 210,000 Net operating income 90,000Required:1A.
