Answer:
A cell that results from the fusion of sperm and ovum is called a zygote. The process of fusion of sperm and ovum is called fertilization.
Answer:
Option 1, 2, 5
Explanation:
Options for the question
- car a and car b are both moving toward the origin.
- car a and car b are moving in opposite directions.
- car a is moving faster than car b.
- car a and car b started at the same location.
- car a and car b pass each other at the crossover point on the graph. time (s)
Solution -
The motion of any object is represented by position-time In such graphs the position of an object is fixed for any starting point on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
The slope of such curves determine the velocity of the object at all its position within the graph. The steeper the slope is, the faster the the object is moving.
Hence, the following statements are correct
Option 1, 2, 5
Answer:
the subduction zone is commonly found in convergent continental-continental boundaries since it is where two continental crusts meet, and the force forces one crust to subduct under another one.
Explanation:
The highest point the medium rises to and a trough is the lowest point the medium sinks to.
Answer:
The correct statement concerning the cell membrane lipid molecules is that "energy is not expended during diffusion" (Option d)
Explanation:
Biological membranes are formed by two lipidic layers arranged with their hydrophilic polar heads facing the exterior and the interior of the cells, and their hydrophobic tails against each other. Membranes are fluid, which means that molecules that form it have the capability to move through it.
Lipids can easily change places with other neighbor lipids by <u>lateral diffusion</u> in the same layer. This is passive diffusion, which means that it does not need energy to happen.
Lipids can also diffuse transversally to the other layer, but this kind of movement is not as easy as lateral diffusion.
There are also other lipidic movements as rotational diffusion that imply the rotation of the molecule.
Through this lipidic bilayer, there is also a passive transport of some particles from one side of the cell to the other which happens because of concentration differences.
