The atmosphere is composed of five major layers. These layers are, in order from the surface of the earth, troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, ionosphere, and exosphere.

troposphere - lowest layer that provides majority of our weather. contains four-fifths of air on the earth and extends to a maximum height of 11 miles at the equator and lesser height at the poles.

stratosphere - extends to the height of 30 miles from the equator and it's the location of the ozone layer.

mesosphere - extends to the height of 52 miles from the equator and is where meteors generally burn up

ionosphere - extends to the height of 430 miles from the equator and is already considered as part of the outer space. It is where satellites orbit around the world.

exosphere - extends to the height range of 620 miles to 6,214 miles from the Earth's surface and merges with interplanetary space

Use the law of universal gravitation to describe the relationship between you and your desk
tangare [24]
The law of gravitation states that things closer to the core of gravitation, have a larger force pulling down on them. In relation of you to your desk, you and the desk are both drawn downwards towards the center of gravity.

<span>1.    </span>Meiosis has 2 cell divisions but mitosis has only one cell division. Meiosis I is same as mitosis because parent cell produces diploid cells. But the difference between meiosis and mitosis is after the complete process meiosis produces genetically different haploid daughter cells and mitosis produces genetically same diploid daughter cells.


<span>2.    </span>The main advantage of the sexual reproduction is It helps to produce offspring which can be well adapted to the environmental conditions due to the genetically differentiations. Hence, there are various types of offspring in the population. But the disadvantage is it requires two parents and it requires more time than asexual reproduction.


<span>3.    </span>Advantages of asexual reproduction are it requires only parent, time for the process is relatively low, it produces genetically identical offspring. The main disadvantage is due to the production of genetically identical offspring, the survival rate is low when there is a disaster.


<span>4.    </span><span>The organism can do either sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction to produce offspring. If it is difficult to find a partner to mate, the living being can do asexual reproduction to make offspring in a short period of time. When the organism needs genetically different offspring for survival, they can do sexual reproduction.</span>

You are given four resistors, 2 ohms, 3 ohms, 5 ohms, and 10 ohms. Your friend say you can connect them so you obtain an equival
AlexFokin [52]

If we will connect the resistors 2ohms, 3ohms, 5ohms in series and the 10ohms resistance parallel then we get equivalent resistance of 5 ohms.

The equivalent circuit is,

R equivalent for the series connection is,

\begin{gathered} Req(S)=2+3+5=10ohms \\ Now,\text{ } \\ Req\text{ }for\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }and\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }is, \\ \frac{1}{Req}=\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5} \\ So, \\ Req=5\text{ ohms} \end{gathered}

The equivalent resistance is 5 ohms.

So your friend is saying true.
