Answer:

The weight of a person on the moon is less, compared to their weight on Earth.

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force. Gravity is the force that tries to pull two objects toward each other.

Anything which has mass, also has a gravitational pull. The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull is. So because the moon iless massive than the earth, you will experience a less gravitational pull and therefore a you will experience less weight on the moon compared to your weight on earth.

EXTRA

The Gravitational pull is difined by the force that arises of masses of two objects in relation to their distance.

Earth's gravity is what keeps you on the ground and what causes objects to fall back to earth.

You can experience a change in gravitational pull on earth yourself, in an exelerating or decelerating elevator.

LaKeisha stepped on a piece of glass and quickly pulled her foot away from that sharp object. Which of the following are respons

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Motor nerves

Explanation:

Pulling the leg quickly from the sharp object is an example of reflex action. It includes sensory receptors, sensory neurons, interneurons, the control center (spinal cord), motor neurons and effector.

As soon as she steps on the glass piece, the receptors present in the skin of her foot sole sense it and send the information to the control center via sensory neurons. The spinal cord commands the muscles of the effector organ (leg) via motor neurons to move to step away from the glass piece.

Compare and contrast the cell cycle with mitosis and the cell cycle with meiosis. Citing atleast 4 similarities and 5 difference

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Cells divide and reproduce in two ways, mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis results in four sex cells. Below we highlight the keys differences and similarities between the two types of cell division.

Mitosis is a form of eukaryotic cell division that produces two daughter cells with the same genetic component as the parent cell. Chromosomes replicated during the S phase are divided in such a way as to ensure that each daughter cell receives a copy of every chromosome. In actively dividing animal cells, the whole process takes about one hour.

Meiosis is the form of eukaryotic cell division that produces haploid sex cells or gametes (which contain a single copy of each chromosome) from diploid cells (which contain two copies of each chromosome). The process takes the form of one DNA replication followed by two successive nuclear and cellular divisions (Meiosis I and Meiosis II). As in mitosis, meiosis is preceded by a process of DNA replication that converts each chromosome into two sister chromatids.
