The diagram below shows the positions of Earth, sun, and moon during two types of tides. The picture on the left is labeled Tide

1 and shows the Earth and sun along the same horizontal line and moon above Earth. The picture on the right is labeled Tide 2 and shows the Earth and sun along the same horizontal line and the moon below Earth. What impact do both positions have on the tides?
The difference is greatest between the high and low tides.
The difference is almost equal to the high tide between the high and low tides.
The gravitational forces due to the sun and the moon cancel each others' effect.
The gravitational forces due to the sun and the moon amplify each others' effect.

Answer:

c. the gravitational forces due to the sun and the moon cancel each other's effect

Explanation:

The two diagrams represent Neap tides. Neap tides occur when the Sun, the Moon and the Earth are aligned at right angles. Moderate tides are formed because the bulge due to gravitational pull of the Sun cancels the bulge due to moon. The difference between the high tides and the low tides is the smallest.

Which substance plays a major role in most of the chemical reactions that occur in living cell
KonstantinChe [14]

Water

Water is the substance that plays a major role in most of the chemical reactions that occur in living cell.

Water is a clear, tasteless, and odourless substance that is found in high amounts in living organisms, and is required by all forms of life. Water plays a major role in most of the chemical reactions that occur in living cells. Water is present both within and outside cells, and almost all chemical reactions take place in water solution. Water also acts as metabolite in many chemical reactions. It is either a reactant or a product of reaction. Water is involved in chemical processes such as digestion, photosynthesis, and aerobic respiration.

Bird, bat, and butterfly wings are examples of which type of evolution
tresset_1 [31]
Bird, bat, and butterfly wings are examples of convergent evolution. <span>This means that all of these wings share the same function and are similar in structure, but each evolved independently. Bird, bat and butterfly wings are analogous, which means that they have separate evolutionary origins, but are similar because of the natural selection that shaped them to play a key role in flight.</span>

What are some similarities between the structure of the DNA and the ladder
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

DNA is often compared to a ladder becaause of its structure. The nucleotides form hydrogen bonds in a certain sequence, forming a "rung" of the ladder. The backbones of DNA are formed by alternating phosphates and  sugar residues. Each nucleotide side attatches to 1 of the 2 backbones, creating a ladder shape.
