Underground, at the point where slippage along the fault begins.

Papessa [141]3 years ago

Answer: In case of a river that is flowing over a fault in a perpendicular manner, if earthquake triggers, then it will be affecting the block in such a way that one block will move up whereas the other block will move down.

                              Due to this shifting of the block, the river channel will also experience an abrupt change in its gradient. The steepness of the river at that point will increase or the river level may also get shrink to a certain extent.

If the concentration of salt in the fluid surrounding cells decreases and the concentration of other solutes remains constant?
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The cell will swell.

Explanation:

The cells react distinctly when placed in different solutions like hypertonic, isotonic and hypotonic solutions. In the mentioned question, that is, in the fluid surrounding the cells, the concentration of salt reduces, which makes the solution hypotonic. Hypotonic solution exhibit high water potential and low solute concentration.  

This makes the water move from the hypotonic solution to the inside of the cell as the osmotic movement occurs from high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration, thus, swelling of the cell takes place.

How does the density of liquid water compare with the<br> density of ice?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The normal pattern for most compounds is that as the temperature of the liquid increases, the density decreases as the molecules spread out from each other. ... The ice structure takes up more volume than the liquid water molecules, hence ice is less dense than liquid water.

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle? see concept 12.3 (
NeTakaya
The correct answer is the interphase.

The cell cycle consists of three phases: the interphase (G1, S, G2) the mitotic (M) phase, and cytokinesis. <span>The first checkpoint of the cell cycle is G1 checkpoint which is between G1 and S phase when cell checks its size, nutrients, molecular signals, DNA integrity. The second checkpoint is G2, just before the mitotic phase, when cell checks DNA integrity and DNA replication. Those two checkpoints are the ones before division, other like M checkpoint is during the mitosis.</span>

Antibiotic resistance happens when an antibiotic lost its ability in controlling or killing bacterial growth. At this moment the bacteria are already resistant to the antibiotic and are multiplying even though the drug is present. This is a natural phenomenon.
