<u><em>Answer:</em></u> The human ear has three parts. The outer ear collects sound waves, the middle ear amplifies these waves, and the inner ear converts them to nerve signals.

Sound waves enter the external ear and are funneled toward the tympanic membrane by the shape of the outer ear.Variation in air pressure due to sound waves causes the tympanic membrane to vibrate. The wave frequency will determine the vibration rate.Tympanic vibrations cause the malleus to move. Because the three ossicles are connected, this vibration is transduced to the stapes via the incus.Movement of the stapes vibrates the oval window. Significant amplification of sound waves occurs due to the small size of the window.Pressure changes transduced through the oval window vibrate the perilymph in the scala vestibuli which are transmitted across the vestibular membrane to the endolymph of the cochlear duct, and also up the scala vestibuli and down the scala tympani much the way <span>waves move through the ocean.</span>

Cross sections of different areas of the same plant show cells with very
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

C. The cells in these two areas have different functions.

Explanation:

The plant tissues are classified into three major systems: vascular, epidermic, and root systems. The vascular system is formed by tissues referred to as xylem and phloem. The epidermis is composed of superficial tissues that cover plant organs (i.e., leaves, stem, roots, etc). Finally, the root system is formed by tissues whose function is to supply to other plant tissues and store nutrients. Moreover, the plant tissues are also classified into meristematic and permanent tissues. In this case, it is reasonable to suppose that structurally different plant cells that are located at different areas of the plant will have distinct functions.

What is the best way to describe active transport?
andriy [413]

active transport. The movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane in the direction opposite that of diffusion, that is, from an area of lower concentration to one of higher concentration. Active transport requires the assistance of a type of protein called a carrier protein, using energy supplied by ATP.
