sasho [114]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Biomagnification stands for Biological Magnification, which means the increase of contaminated substances or toxic chemicals that take place in the food chains. These substances often arise from intoxicated or contaminated environments. The contaminants include heavy metals namely mercury, arsenic, pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls  compounds which are then taken up by organisms because of the food they consume or the intoxication of their environment.

enyata [817]

Answer:

In the mentioned scenario, norepinephrine and acetylcholine are the neurotransmitters, which would have been present at the higher concentrations in Sean's brain. Norepinephrine signifies to a neurotransmitter that plays an important part in dreaming, emotions, sleeping, attentiveness, and learning.  

It also gets released in the bloodstream as a hormone, where it augments the rate of heart and causes the blood vessels to contract. Another neurotransmitter called acetylcholine signifies the chemical that is released by the motor neurons to instigate the muscles.

A neutron star collapses into a black hole because of the force of (fusion,gravity)
stealth61 [152]
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.

In which situation would artificial insemination most likely be used over other forms of treatment?
Tanya [424]

 Answer:   D. the mucus that helps the sperm travel to the uterus is too thick.

Artificial insemination is the technique in which the sperms are introduced into the female's cervix or uterine cavity. This results in pregnancy through in vivo fertilization. Women cervix is blocked by thick mucus which block the entry of sperms. Therefore, artificial insemination would be better in such situation than other forms of treatment.
