Explain why some of the leaves may get detached from a tree if we vigorously shake its branch.

Some leaves of the trees get detached from a tree when we shake their branches vigorously because when we shake the branches, the branches come in motion, while the leaves tend to remain at rest due to the inertia of rest.

When the tree is at  rest, that means, its leaves are also at rest. But when we bring the tree in motion by means of shaking it, due to the inertia of leaves they still tends to be in rest.

That is, the force is acting on leaves vigorously with changing direction rapidly. This result in detaching of leaves from the leaves.

Inertia of rest is defined as the fundamental property of a body to oppose  any change in its state of rest. Or we can say that body does not want to change its state of rest, but wants to continue its state of rest.

if we looked at weather balloon data taken at 12:00 noon instead of 12:00 midnight, what do you think we would see in that data?
Gemiola [76]
“Remember, we are ultimately trying to explain how hailstorms form. We now know the air is colder higher up in the atmosphere than it is near the ground, which helps us understand where it might be cold enough for hailstones to form.
Our next step is to figure out why the air up high is colder. Based on what we have figured out from the weather balloon data, if we gathered more data by moving closer to the ground, what do you think we would see in that data?
In addition, if we looked at weather balloon data taken at 12:00 noon instead of 12:00 midnight, what do you think we would see in that data?
Do you think we would see the same patterns? Why or why not?” Hope this helps if not write in the comments maybe I will be able to find other answers that might help you. If helped mark me the brainiest!! THESE ARE QUOTES DO NOT COPY ITS IS PLAGIARISM!!

What happens to the concentration of oestrogen at ovulation?
frez [133]

Answer:

When oestrogen rises to a high enough level it causes a surge in LH from the pituitary which causes ovulation where an egg is released from the follicle (Day 14 of the cycle). The follicle becomes the corpus luteum and this produces oestrogen and progesterone which inhibit FSH and LH production by the pituitary.

Please choose the answer that best completes the blanks of this sentence in the correct order. _______ are substances that provo
Inessa05 [86]
The correct answer is antigens and epitope.
An antigen is a substance which triggers an immune response in an organism. This can be either a foreign substance, such as a pathogen, or a specific part of the host organism (in this case this is an autoimmune response). The presence of an antigen activates a specific part of the immune system, called antibody. Each antigen has a specific antibody, which is tailored by the immune system accordingly. More specifically, the antibody has a specific structure, called paratope, which is complementary and binds like a key to a specific structure of the antigen, called epitope.

A scientist wants to know if adults prefer watching movies in a theater or in their home. He interviews 500 people leaving a loc
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The scientist's conclusion is most likely unreliable because he just interviewed people watching movies in the theatre. He should have interviewed an equal number of people from the theatre and from home to get reliable results. According to the scientific method for designing an experiment, the experiment or survey conducted by scientists is not correct. Hence, the scientist's conclusion is wrong because his method of experimentation was wrong.

Identify each items as either an element or a compound
ruslelena [56]
Carbon (C) is an element
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a compound
Hydrogen (H) is an element
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is a compound
A good way to tell whether something is a compound or an element, is that in a compound there is a mixture of different elements. Like in Carbon Dioxide, the symbol is CO2. This shows the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) together. I hope i worded that well enough and this helps :)
