Contrast the three types of heat transfer

Biology
1 answer:
topjm [15]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

There are three modes of heat transfer.

1. Conduction

2. Convection

3. Radiation

1. Conduction: Heat transfer through the process of conduction occurs in substances which are in direct contact with each other. It generally takes place in solids.

For example: When frying vegetables in a pan. Heat transfer takes place from flame to the pan and then to the vegetables.

2. Convection: In this process, heat is transferred in the liquid and gases from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature. Convection heat transfer occurs partly due to the actual movement of molecules or due to the mass transfer.

For example: Heating of milk in a pan.

3. Radiation : It is the process in which heat is transferred from one body to another body without involving the molecules of the medium. Radiation heat transfer does not depend on the medium.

For example: In a microwave, the substances are heated directly without any heating medium.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Continental <u>Polar</u>

Explanation:

Air masses are given a <u>two-part name</u> that describes the humidity and temperature characteristics of the region where they form. The first part of an air mass’ name describes its humidity. Air masses that form over the ocean, called maritime air masses, are more humid than those that form over land, called continental air masses. The second part of the name describes the temperature of the air mass, which depends on the latitude where it formed. Air masses that form near the equator or in the tropics (equatorial or tropical air masses) are warmer than air masses that form in polar areas or uin the Arctic (polar or arctic air masses).

The word that describes humidity (maritime or continental) is paired with the word that describes temperature (equatorial, tropical, polar or arctic). For example, if an air mass forms over a tropical ocean, it is called maritime tropical. If an air mass forms over land in the far north it is called continental polar.

Yolk molecules tend to accumulate in the vegetal half in the fertilized eggs of most animals, and the presence of yolk can slow
bazaltina [42]

cells in the vegetal half of the embryo should be unpigmented those in the animal half and there should be heavily pigmented.

Explanation:

The Yolk molecules moving in the vegetal halves of the egg which is the case in most of the animals, slows down the cell division. These lesser division area or the zone demarcates the area to be vegetal pole and due to lesser cell division, it becomes unpigmented or less pigmented Based on the observation time and perspect with assuming no movement.

The pole opposite to the vegetal, is animal pole which with absence or less of yolk, gets more ability to divide and hence become more pigmented or heavily pigmented. This brings polarity to the egg and becomes telolecithal egg.
