Why does a curve on a distance-time graph indicate acceleration?

Biology
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
4 0

A curve on a distance-time graph indicates distance with respect to time.

For someone good in interpreting curves, the slope of distance/time at each point on the curve represents the velocity.

For someone still better in reading curves, the second derivative of the curve at any point indicates acceleration. Second derivative means the rate of variation of velocity with respect to time.

So the quick answer is a curve on a distance time graph does NOT directly indicate acceleration. See example in attached diagram. If you can "see" the constant acceleration indicated in the bottom (distance-time) graph, then yes, you can find acceleration from a distance-time graph. Otherwise, the answer is still no.

Three phases of interphase
GREYUIT [131]
The 3 phases of interphase can be broken down into the first growth phase of the cell - G1 phase. Then the S phase, where DNA replication and or DNA synthesis occurs to duplicate the number of chromosomes in the cell. Followed by the G2 phase, an additional growth phase and where specific protein come into play along with organelle and cellular component duplication.

Ede4ka [16]

Complete question:

Thinking creatively about evolutionary mechanisms, identify at least

two schemes that could generate allelic polymorphism in a population except natural selection that favors heterozygotes.

<u>Select the two correct answers.</u>

-inbreeding among individuals in the population

-purifying selection against mutational variants of alleles in the population

-continuous migration of individuals with new alleles into the population

-mutations that do not severely affect viability and reproductivity

-genetic drift of alleles common in the population

-events leading to genetic bottleneck effect

Answer:

The two events that might favor heterozygotes among the options are  

  • The Continuous migration of individuals with new alleles into the population
  • Mutations that do not severely affect viability and reproductivity.  These might favor heterozygous frequencies.

Explanation:

Due to technical problems, you will find the complete explanation in the attached files.

What grows in a fertilized cone?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Fertilization Follows. During the spring of the female cone's second year, the male and female gametes are ready. The pollen grows a pollen tube, which enters a little hole in the ovule's skin near its basal end, called the micropyle. The tube enters the ovule, and the sperm goes down the tube and into the ovule.
