The microvillus are tiny hair- like membrane that greatly increase the amount of surface area of the cells for better reception. It plays a major role in the tongue that are responsible for sending signals to the brain which then decides the taste of the food particle that is on the tongue.

The long and slender structure gives greater space for absorbing the data and then convert them into signals. Hence the microvillus are the slender projections on the tips of some taste bud cells that extend into the taste pores

Equal masses of granite, iron, copper, and lead are placed in sunlight. Based on specific heat, which material will warm up the

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The material that will warm up the fastest would be lead.

The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit of the substance by one degree. The higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the higher the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance and vice versa.

The specific heat capacity (in J/g °C) of granite, iron, copper, and lead are as follows:

Granite - 0.790

Iron - 0.450

Copper - 0.385

Lead - 0.129

From the table, lead has the lowest specific heat capacity, hence, it will be the fastest to get warmed when equal masses of all the substances are placed in the sunlight.
