The distance between two adjacent crests of a transverse wave?

Biology
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
6 0


The distance between two adjacent crests of a transverse wave is called the wavelength.

Wavelength is a property of a wave that can be spotted and used as a way of telling waves apart. The parts of the wave that point up are termed crests while any part that is sloping called a trough.

Wavelength is measured in meters. There is no definite spot  from which to start on a wave to measure wavelength. The most popular way of measuring wavelength is from crest to the next crest but can also be measured just as accurately from trough to trough.

Suppose a point mutation, such as a change from an adenine to a guanine, occurs in the genome of a human sperm cell. The mutatio
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

B. The mutation results in a new, dominant allele

C. The mutation occurs in a gene that controls development and alters differentiation of a cell type during development.

D. The mutation occurs in a codon and alters the function of the final protein

Explanation:

All the above things will change the <u>ultimate expression</u> or phenotype by altering the proteins. Choices B, C, and D will all change the outer functioning.

Choice A only affects the rate of transcription, so it may go faster or slower, but the end product will be the same.

This part that doesn't look like it's one of the choices ("The mutation occurs in a portion of an intron not responsible for exon splicing.") would not affect phenotype, because introns are removed before the RNA is sent out.

Choice E says that the amino acid sequence is unchanged, meaning the protein final product will be the same and the expression will not change.

Which substance has a high albedo?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Which substance has a high albedo? B) White Sand

Explanation:

The albedo is the amount of energy that is reflected by a surface. It is determined by the refletivity of that surface. Albedo can range from 0 (no reflection) to a value of 1 (100% reflection). Generally, dark surfaces have a low albedo and light surfaces have a high albedo. Liquid water is considered to have a low albedo, like dark rock and rich soil.

A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet has a wave base of___.
dmitriy555 [2]

A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet has a wave base of <u>7.5 feet</u>.

A. 7.5 feet

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wave base defines the depth of the water when it is in still condition.

Wave base is half of wavelength.

Wave base = wavelength/2

Given,

Wavelength = 15 feet

So, wave base = 15 feet/2 = 7.5 feet

When the wave height is divided by wavelength then it gives the steepness of the wave.

Therefore, the wave base is 7.5feet.

Some animals look things from very far distance and others not see from far distance why?
olganol [36]

Answer:

The brain gets better with practice, so routine actions like walking become second nature. That is why your first time on the monkey bars is harder than your 100th time.

So how does the brain judge distance? The key for animals — like monkeys and humans — is in our eyes.

Where these different views overlap is how the brain is able to calculate the difference in distance and to judge depth.

This happens because the closer an item is to you, the greater the relative difference between the eyes will be compared with the object. The farther away an item is, the smaller the relative distance between the eyes will be. Our brain is great at remembering patterns, and it remembers the differences that each eye is seeing and correlates it with a distance. It can also find the distance by calculating the “convergence,” or how crossed your eyes become while looking at something. The more crossed your eyes become when looking at an object, the closer the object.
