Why do the stars appear to be moving across the sky

Biology
2 answers:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Stars appear to move across the sky at night because Earth spins on its axis and it is moving around the Sun. Because the Earth spins half a turn in a night, a star visible low in the east early in the evening will appear to rise and move in an arc across the southern sky and set in the west before morning. Stars in the center of the southern sky will disappear below the western horizon halfway through the night. Also, other stars will rise in the east all through the night. The stars that can be seen are always in the sky at some time during the day, but some rise while the sun is in the sky and are hidden by the glare of the bright sky.

Hope this helps!

Macronutrients are nutrients that contain inorganic components. <br> a. True <br> b. False
emmasim [6.3K]
This is false, as macronutrients are all made of organic components. Macronutrients are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. The most basic unit for carbohydrates is glucose. Glucose is an organic molecule with a chemical formula of C6H12O6 which then is broken down by the body to convert it to energy (in the form of ATP). Fats or triglycerides are comprised of fatty acids and a glycerol backbone which can also be used by the body for energy or can be stored for later use. Proteins on the other hand are functional molecules wherein the basic unit for proteins is the amino acid. Proteins are exemplified because they contain nitrogen (CHON). All of which can be used as energy and has specific caloric value per gram (4 kcal for every gram of protein and carbohydrates and 9 kcal for every gram of fat).

Micronutrients are usually inorganic compounds with no caloric value. Usually these micronutrients are essential for maintaining biochemical pathways in the body. For instance, niacin and riboflavin are vitamins that are needed in the production of NAD and FAD which are important for reduction-oxidation reactions in the body (i.e. tricarboxylic acid cycle and electron transport chain).
