Based on your observations, which way does earth rotate—from east to west, or west to east? Explain your answer.

Based on my observations, the earth rotates from west to east about the axis of rotation. The counter-clockwise rotation of the earth is as viewed from the North Pole star Polaris.

My observations supporting the counter-clockwise rotation of the earth are:

  • The Sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
  • All celestial objects including the stars and the moon rise in the east and set in the west.

The rotation is the result of the strong geomagnetic field of the earth. It is also responsible for the formation of day and night on the planet.

cell organelles In this lab, you will try to view as many cell organelles as you can at different magnification levels. Write an
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

What is the effect of power/magnification on the frequency and size of organelles under a microscope?

Explanation:

Organelles within the cell are responsible for carrying out various functions. Some cells are more specialized than others, and may have particular organelles at a higher frequency, or showing a variation in size; sub-cellular structures become more visible at higher magnifications under the microscope.

Hypotheses:

  • organelle A's frequency decreases while B's frequency increases at higher magnifications
  • organelle A's size increases while B's size decreases at higher magnifications

<em />

<em>Dependent variables: size and frequency cell organelles</em>

<em>Independent variable:  power/magnification at low (x4), medium(x10) and high  (x40)</em>

<em>Controlled variables: Type of organelles, microscope used, cell examined, </em>

Method:

1. Examine the organelles A and B in a cell mounted on a slide; use the fine adjustment to focus on the cell.

  • Frequency:  What is the average number of organelle A versus B, seen at low (x4), medium (x10) and high (x40) magnifications?
  • Size: Measure the average diameter of organelle A versus B using an ocular micrometer at low, medium and high magnification.

2. Record and tabulate observations.

The body felt cool to the touch. The thermometer gave a reading of 70˚F. No rigor mortis was evident, but permanent livor mortis
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Basically enzyme activities are affected by drop in temperature. in additions the corpse was cool to touch.Therefore this  explains while there was no bloating or bacteria activity since the decomposing  bacteria  enzymes  were inactive because of the cold temperature.

Consequently, if the Livor mortis (lividity) is +8hrs 0-4days, evidently  the corpse must have been refrigerated after livor mortis sets in, with the decomposition slowed down by the cold environment.

Notes: Algor mortis is 26.8hrs, and there was no algor mortis.

HEYYYYYYYYYY PLEASE HELP!!!!!
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

Given the change in positive (direction) over time we are given the velocity formula.

V = Change in direction/Change in time

Since we are given a direction we can rule out speed as well as direction in itself. We can also rule out acceleration because that is the change in Velocity divided by change in time.

What do you think would happen to a protein if it were a different shape?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Well protines come in diffrent shapes, for there diffrent functions. The first level, or primary structure, is the linear sequence of amino acids that creates the peptide chain. In the secondary structure, hydrogen bonding between different amino acids creates a three-dimensional geometry like an alpha helix or pleated sheet. An alpha helix is simply a spiral or coiled molecule, whereas a pleated sheet looks like a ribbon with regular peaks and valleys as part of the fabric. The tertiary structure describes the overall shape of the protein. Most tertiary structures are either globular or fibrous. Generally, nonstructural proteins such as enzymes are globular, which means they look spherical. The enzyme amylase is a good example of a globular protein. Structural proteins are typically long and thin, and hence the name, fibrous. Quaternary structures describe the protein's appearance when a protein is composed of two or more polypeptide chains. Often the polypeptide chains will hydrogen bond with each other in unique patterns to create the desired protein configuration.

some hormones are proteins; and some proteins are involved with digestion, respiration, reproduction, and even normal vision, just to mention a few.

f the three-dimensional structure of the protein is altered because of a change in the structure of the amino acids, the protein becomes denatured and does not perform its function as expected.
