"Gravitational attraction" is initially responsible for the formation of the clumps of matter within this interstellar cloud.

<u>Answer:</u> Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

About 4.6 billion years ago, the solar systems were a bunch of gases and dusts, referred to solar nebula. Gravity squeezed the material as it started to rotate, creating the sun at the middle of the fog.

The rest of the material began to accumulate with the sunrise. The smaller particles moved together to form larger particles that were connected by gravity. As lumps develop, gravity increases and turns into kinetic energy of moving particles that collide and produce heat.

Roles of bones in bony fish include which of the following?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

D All of the above

Explanation:

Like our bones, bones in fish can provide general protection and support to their body.

(Fun fact, jellyfish do not have bones, so when they are out of the water, they loses their bell shape structure and looks more like a flat piece of jelly. But fish tends to look the same when it is in water and out of water.)

The bone is also where the muscles will attach to, which allows for movement.

(Imagine our fingers, the muscles in our fingers are attached to our bones, which allows us to do things like typing.)

Bones can also protect the fish's brain.

(Brain can be very fragile and soft, so having a hard structure around it can protect the brain. It's kind of similar to protecting the liquid egg in an egg shell.)

What of the following is ordered from LARGEST to SMALLEST? Select one: a. virus, mitochondrion, hemoglobin, glucose, water molec
choli [55]

Answer:

c. mitochondrion, virus, hemoglobin, glucose, water molecule

Explanation:

The mitochondrion is a membrane which is found in cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It is also known as power house of cells. This is largest from virus, hemoglobin, water molecule and glucose.

Virus is second largest and is small infectious agent. It has capability to infect many organisms and living cells. Hemoglobin is protein which is present in red blood cells. Glucose is a type of sugar presence in the blood. Water molecule is composed of hydrogen and oxygen and is smallest among the others.
