Gravity

Neutron stars are the most extreme and fascinating objects known to exist in our universe: Such a star has a mass that is up to twice that of the sun but a radius of only a dozen kilometers: hence it has an enormous density, thousands of billions of times that of the densest element on Earth. An important property of neutron stars, distinguishing them from normal stars, is that their mass cannot grow without bound. Indeed, if a nonrotating star increases its mass, also its density will increase. Normally this will lead to a new equilibrium and the star can live stably in this state for thousands of years. This process, however, cannot repeat indefinitely and the accreting star will reach a mass above which no physical pressure will prevent it from collapsing to a black hole. The critical mass when this happens is called the "maximum mass" and represents an upper limit to the mass that a nonrotating neutron star can be.

However, once the maximum mass is reached, the star also has an alternative to the collapse: it can rotate. A rotating star, in fact, can support a mass larger than if it was nonrotating, simply because the additional centrifugal force can help balance the gravitational force. Also in this case, however, the star cannot be arbitrarily massive because an increase in mass must be accompanied by an increase in the rotation and there is a limit to how fast a star can rotate before breaking apart. Hence, for any neutron star, there is an absolute maximum mass and is given by the largest mass of the fastest-spinning model.

A DNA sequence that is responsible for the initiation of transcription in a cell-type specific manner is:_____.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Promoter.

Explanation:

It is promoter because Promoter is a DNA sequence where's the gene transcription begins. It is the

DNA sequence which RNA polymerase binds or join to

so as to begin transcriptionn of a gene . It is a region where the regulatory elements i.e protein will bind to and the Promoter sequences are found directly upstream or at the end of 5' of the transcription initiation site. This can also encode RNA such as mRNA, trans and so on.

In the onion root tip cells, which of the following would be evidence of cytokinesis?
koban [17]

The study of onion root tips is widely known for the clear appearance of the stages of mitosis since the chromosomes are large and are clearly visible. They are easily stained with the stainer and are visible clearly under the electron microscope. The phase of mitosis are

Interphase

Prophase

Metaphase

Anaphase

Telophase and

Cytokinesis

Each of these phases show the different stages in which the division of one cell into two daughter cells takes place. The cytokinesis is the final phase in the mitosis cell division. This is the part of cell division process during which the cytoplasm of the cell divides into two equal parts and forms into two daughter cells.

During the cytokinesis process, the spindle apparatus partitions and transports the duplicated chromatids and moves into the cytoplasm of the dividing daughter cells. In this process a dividing structure called the cell plate is formed to distinguish the daughter cells. This cell plate later grows into a double layered cell wall which then splits the parent cell into two separate cells.

Hence the option D is the right answer

which of the following balances performs in a closed compartment with no air currents to disturb measurement
Andrei [34K]

A balance that performs in an enclosed compartment  with no air currents to disturb is called an analytical balance.

Analytical balances are instruments used for precise and determination of mass of matter. They are accurate and very precise instruments. They require a draft-free location on a solid bench that is free of vibrations.

Analytical balances of today are digital and have built in calibration weights to maintain accuracy. Older versions usually require to be manually calibrated using specific  standard weights.

Consider the model of the oxygen cycle as it moves through the various spheres of Earth. One assumption we can make after analyz
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

B)Photosynthesis releases oxygen into the atmosphere while aerobic respiration removes oxygen from the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Only option B satisfies the answer to the question.

We know that photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their foods in the presence of carbon dioxide and sunlight. Carbondioxie in the environment is used to manufacture food in plants. The bye product of photosynthesis is oxygen gas. Oxygen gas is used for aerobic respiration in animals and is essential for their life. This way photosynthesis adds to the pool of oxygen in the atmosphere and aerobic respiration removes from the pool.
