Microscopy is not a method used to detect extrasolar planets.

<h3>Methods of detecting exoplanets:</h3>

Any planetary body beyond the solar system that typically orbits a star other than the Sun is referred to as an extrasolar planet, often known as an exoplanet. There are 3,779 planetary systems with 3,108 confirmed exoplanets as of 1 July 2022, 826 of which contain multiple planets. The Kepler space telescope was responsible for most of these discoveries.

Exoplanets contain elements that are comparable to those found in our solar system, but their compositions of those elements may vary. Iron or carbon may dominate some planets, whilst water or ice may rule others.

The following methods have at least once proved successful for discovering an extrasolar planet or detecting an already discovered planet:

  • Radial velocity
  • Transit photometry
  • Ellipsoidal variations
  • Pulsar timing
  • Variable star timing
  • Transit timing
  • Transit duration variation
  • Eclipsing binary minima timing
  • Gravitational microlensing
  • Direct imaging

What does a population pyramid represents?
scoray [572]

Answer:

B: a population’s age-sex structure

Explanation:

A population pyramid is a way to visualize two variables: age and sex.  

They are used by demographers, who study populations. A population pyramid is a graph that shows the distribution of ages across a population divided down the center between male and female members of the population. Expansive pyramids mean that the population does not increase much in total number and has many young people.

Hope this helps! Info from National Geographic, I would trust it if I were you!

Identify which function group monosaccharides have in the greatest abundance
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer;

-Hydroxyl groups.

-They have multiple hydroxyl groups.

Explanation;

-Monosaccharides are the simplest form of sugars found in common food items such as honey, cane sugar, fruits. They are the building blocks of other carbohydrates (disaccharides and polysaccharides).

-The are formed by three elements and three elements only: Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O). Monosaccharides have two broad classifications on the basis of the functional group present in them, that is; aldose (contains aldehyde group) and ketose (contains a keto group).

-Monosaccharides contain multiple hydroxyl groups, and are responsible for the hydrophillic property of monosaccharides allowing them to dissolve in water easily.
