The atomic number ALWAYS refers to the number of protons in the nucleus. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 that means it has 8 protons in the nucleus.
Answer:
1.) How do solar thermal generators work?
D.) They use solar cells to covert sunlight directly into electricity
2.) Fossil fuel dependence has an impact on which of the following?
A.) the environment
3.) How much money does the United States lose each year due to the non-local resource trade deficit?
D.) 300 billion
Explanation:
In solar thermal generators. they depends solely on sun's energy for its energy generation and distribution. <em>The energy generation made use of solar cells which are cells joined together in series which helps in trapping the sun's energy and converting them into electric charges for its onward transmission to the circuit and battery leading to electricity. </em>
On the other-hand, over dependence on fossil fuel causes environmental issues like global warming due to gas flaring etc.
Answer: Limited Surface area - Volume ratio
Explanation:
Cells in various organisms usually have the same size be it a blue whale or an earthworm, a Human or a mouse or an Elephant and a squirrel. This is down to the way the cell is structure.
The Cell needs to absorb nutrients to survive while getting rid of waste material. For that to happen it needs an adequate surface area. The problem is that as the cell absorbs more nutrients thereby increasing in volume, this rise in volume occurs at a faster rate than the cell can increase its surface area so the surface area will keep shrinking.
Therefore, in order to have enough surface area to keep up the process of absorption and excrement, the cell will stop growing at the certain point and this process is similar in most if not all organisms.
E. The number of farms per square kilometer
Informal means of control – Internalizationof norms and values by a process known as socialization, which is "the process by which an individual, born with behavioral potentialities of enormously wide range, is led to develop actual behavior which is confined to the narrower range of what is acceptable for him by the group standards."[2]
Formal means of social control – External sanctions enforced by government to prevent the establishment of chaos or anomie in society. Some theorists, such as Émile Durkheim, refer to this form of control as regulation.
As briefly defined above, the means to enforce social control can be either informal or formal.[3] Sociologist Edward A. Ross argues that belief systems exert a greater control on human behavior than laws imposed by government, no matter what form the beliefs take.
Social control is considered one of the foundations of order within society.
