13. Give one use for ethyne.

Biology
1 answer:
s344n2d4d5 [400]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Ethyne is useful for artificial ripening and preservation of fruits. It is useful in acetylene lamps to generate light. Ethyne is used to prepare various organic compounds. It is also useful to manufacture important organic compounds like acetic acid, acetaldehyde, ethyl alcohol and polymers like PVC, etc.

Explanation:

Since ethyne burns with a very hot flame, one of its most notable applications is in oxyacetylene gas welding and oxyacetylene gas cutting. When ethyne is subjected to combustion with oxygen, the flame created is known to have a temperature of roughly 3600 Kelvin.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

This is known as Phenotypic plasticity, the artic fox has the advantage of being able able to hunt rodents, birds and fish

Explanation:

Phenotypic plasticity can be explained as the changes in the behavior, morphology, physiology of an organism such as the artic fox in response to their unique habitat. It tells us how the artic fox is able to cope with the variations in it's environment.

Their natural hues helps them to blend into snow and ice since it is white. When there's a change in season, their fur or coat also changes as well to a brown or grey color that gives it cover when it is among rocks and plants.

These colorings gives them an advantage and help them to hunt rodents, birds and fishes.

torisob [31]

In which sections or section of the kidney is the urine formed? 

The final product of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion which is the urine is primarily formed in the renal medulla although the formation of the urine starts with the filtration of blood in the glomerulus then along the proximal tubules, descending and ascending loop of Henle, distal tubules, and collecting ducts. 


What section of the kidney collects the urine? 

The renal pelvis is the main section of the kidney that collects the urine. The renal pelvis arises from the confluence of the collecting ducts forming the renal papilla then the minor calyx and the major calyx and ultimately to the renal pelvis to be transported to the urinary bladder through the ureters.


How does the urine move from the kidney out of the body? 

The urine will be collected in the renal pelvis. With the urine collected in the renal pelvis, the urine moves from the renal pelvis to the urinary bladder through the ureters and will be stored in the urinary bladder. When there is an urge to urinate, the urinary bladder contracts and the urethral sphincter relaxes that allows passage of the urine from the bladder out of the body through the urethra.


In which main regions of the kidney are the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule located? 

The glomerulus and the Bowman’s capsule are part of the renal cortex. These organs are responsible for the filtration of the blood from the afferent arteriole. The glomerulus and the Bowman’s capsule are not synonymous but rather the glomerulus comes from the afferent arteriole and the Bowman’s capsule functions as a filtration membrane. Together, they are called the renal corpuscle.


In which main regions of the kidney are the collecting ducts and the loop of Henle located?

The collecting ducts are located in the renal medulla whereas the loop of Henle are partly in the medulla, depending on the type of nephron. In superficial cortical nephrons, the dips only up to the outer medulla while in the juxtamedullary nephrons, the glomerulus is near the corticomedullary border wherein more parts of the loop of Henle is in the medulla.

Sea anemones can reproduce sexually or asexually. What would be the most likely advantage a sea anemone would have to reproduce
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Re-producing sexually will allow the sea anemones to give their offspring a more diverse gene pool and can mitigate the risks of a genetic disorder being spread to the offspring because the bad gene has a higher chance become recessive if the gene of the anemone it mates with is more dominant (meaning it wouldn't allow the "bad" gene to show in the offspring) whereas otherwise, the offspring would have the same issues the mother did (assuming it had a bad gene to begin with).
