Answer:
Georgia is the world's leading producer of Kaolin (china clay).
Explanation:
Kaolin or china clay contains the mineral kaolinite mainly. It also contains varying amounts of other minerals like muscovite, feldspar, quartz, etc. In order to prepare it for commercial use, the clay in its natural form is then chemically treated and washed with water to remove the other minerals.
Kaolin is extensively used in the ceramic industry and the paper-coating industry. The high fusion temperature and white burning characteristics are used in the ceramic industry for the manufacture of chinaware, porcelain, and refractories. In the paper-coating industry, the kaolin is mixed with the cellulose fiber in the paper sheet. This gives the paper its color, opacity, and printability. It is also used as a pigment additive in paints, as a filler in plastic and rubber compounds, and in pharmaceuticals.
Answer:
0.1
Explanation:
To calculate this, scientists use a formula called the biodiversity index in order to describe how much are the species of a given area diverse. It is calculated by taking the number of species in the area and divided by the total number of individuals in that area. This gives us the biodiversity index.
In this example, there are 15 species in an area and we divide that by 150 organisms to get a 0.1 biodiversity index.
Anaphase I begins when the two chromosomes of each bivalent (tetrad) separate and start moving toward opposite poles of the cell as a result of the action of the spindle. Notice that in anaphase I the sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres and move together toward the poles.
Answer:
Thick diameter, Myelinated
Explanation:
A alpha neurons conduct action potentials faster because of their large axon diameter and myelin.
- The large diameter is less resistant to the flow of ions and allows for faster conductivity.
- The myelin sheath is a layer of fat acting as to insulate the axon which helps increase signal conductance.
