Answer:
The glyptodon is found to be similar to the armadillo.
Explanation:
A piece of evidence that supports the theory of evolution is that the glyptodon is found to be similar to the armadillo. Glyptodons and armadillos have many things in common, expect that glyptodons are much larger (the size of a Volkswagen beetle!) than an armadillo. The change from the prehistoric glyptodon to our modern day armadillo helps support that there is evolution because they still have many things in common. They are genetically related.
Answer:
Dispersion of white light by a prism
Explanation:
When white light is passed through a prism, the white light separates into its component wavelengths which are:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
Together, all of these wavelengths constitute the spectrum of white light.
Hence, the dispersion of white light shows that each color of visible light has a specific wavelength.
Answer:
The sternum, thoracic vertebrae, and ribs protect the heart and lungs.
Explanation:
The skeleton can be divided into the <em>axial skeleton</em> (the skull and the vertebral column), <em>visceral skeleton</em> (ribs and sternum) and the <em>appendicular skeleton</em> (extremities).
The function of the <em><u>visceral skeleton</u></em> is to <em>support and protect</em> the first portion of the digestive and cardio-breathing apparatus.
In mammals, the second part of the vertebral column (thoracic vertebrae), the ribs and the sternum delimitate a protective box for lungs and heart.
Answer:
10 m/s/s or m/s²
Explanation:
Acceleration can be calculated by using the formula;
a = v - u/t
Where;
a = acceleration (m/s²)
v = final velocity (m/s)
u = initial velocity (m/s)
t = time (s)
In other terms, acceleration (a) can be represented as ∆V/t.
According to this question, a ball accelerates from 10 m/s (u) to 30 m/s (v) in 2 seconds. Hence, the acceleration of the ball is as follows:
a = 30 - 10/2
a = 20/2
a = 10m/s².
