What is the difference in the meaning between the lengths of lines in a phylogram and ultrametric tree?

Physics

Serjik [45]3 years ago

<span>A phylogram is a phylogenetic tree where edge lengths signify time or genetic distance while an ultrametric tree or “chronogram” is a phylogenetic tree where edge lengths represent time. Also i<span>n an ultrametric tree, all tips of the tree are equidistant from the root of the tree. While a phylogram has dissimilar branch lengths which quantitatively signify the opposing degrees of change between the root and each terminal node.</span></span>

Which of the following is NOT an argument for showing that the Earth must be round: a. during an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow
Hitman42 [59]

Answer: The correct option is option E (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year.

Explanation:

The earth, which is one of the planets of the solar system that supports life, is shperical in shape. The spherical ( round) shape of the earth is marked by the intervening highlands and oceans on its surface.

Evidence to show that the earth is shperical are:

--> The Lunar eclipse: During an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow of the Earth is always seen to be round.

--> Ships Visibility: When ships travel a large distance away, we see their hulls disappear first and their masts disappear last.

-->Altitude of Polaris (North Star): The height of the North Star changes as we travel to different latitudes. That is ,increases as you move toward the North pole, or decreases as you move toward the equator.

--> Aerial photographs: Photographs of the Earth from space always show a round body.

The statement that doesn't prove that the earth is spherical in shape is (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year). The sun is seen in front of stars blocking different constellation in a year because the earth orbits round the sun in a year and not that it is shperical in shape.

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?

Determine the change in electric potential energy of a system of two charged objects when a -2.1-C charged object and a -5.0-C c
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Change in electric potential energy ∆E = 365.72 kJ

Explanation:

Electric potential energy can be defined mathematically as:

E = kq1q2/r ....1

k = coulomb's constant = 9.0×10^9 N m^2/C^2

q1 = charge 1 = -2.1C

q2 = charge 2 = -5.0C

∆r = change in distance between the charges

r1 = 420km = 420000m

r2 = 160km = 160000m

From equation 1

∆E = kq1q2 (1/r2 -1/r1) ......2

Substituting the given values

∆E = 9.0×10^9 × -2.1 ×-5.0(1/160000 - 1/420000)

∆E = 94.5 × 10^9 (3.87 × 10^-6) J

∆E = 365.72 × 10^3 J

∆E = 365.72 kJ

A certain corner of a room is selected as the origin of a rectangular coordinate system. If a fly is crawling on an adjacent wal
Helga [31]

Answer:

2.59 m

Explanation:

Coordinates of origin = (0, 0)

Coordinates of Point p where the fly reach = (2.3 m, 1.2 m)

Use the distance formula of coordinates to find the distance between the origin and the point P.

d=\sqrt{\left ( x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}+\left ( y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}}

d=\sqrt{\left ( 2.3- 0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 1.2-0 \right )^{2}}

d = 2.59 m

Thus, the distance between the origin and the point P is 2.59 m.
