What are all of the energy transformations that take place as sunlight is converted to usable energy within humans

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The energy transformation in the sun is primarily the change of nuclear energy to light energy.

More Explainable: </span><span>The sun is said to "burn hydrogen" but what that really means is that near the center of the sun there is enough temperature and pressure to cause the fusion of hydrogen nuclei (protons) into helium nuclei (two protons and two neutrons). The fusion (not fission) reaction energy give off energy in a complex way that includes heat and light. The light works its way out from the center of the sun to the surface and eventually out of the surface into space. That is the sunlight we see as well as some light that is outside our range of vision. The light is electromagnetic energy. </span>

Why doesn't our hands swell up due to osmosis , when we keep it in water for a long time ??

DerKrebs [107]

A cell wall is a permeable layer found in plant cells which acts as a membrane through which water molecules can pass through while animal cells do not have cell walls.. they just have a cell membrane which is selectively permeable to some chemicals or substances.. water does not move from the region of higher to lower concentration in animal cells

In short, plant cells have cell walls that allow osmosis while animal cells do not have cell walls for osmosis to take place

hope it helps you :)

Instead in our hands... something else happens rills or groove shaped lines are formed in our fingers.. it is an adaptation for our body to provide for some friction in water...

A 35 kg child moves with uniform circular motion while riding a horse on a carousel. The horse is 3.2 m from the carousel's axis

Andrews [41]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

b. $\frac{2.11m}{s^{2}}$

The centripetal acceleration or radial acceleration is present when an object is moving to describe a circular path. The centripetal acceleration is always perpendicular to the direction of the velocity and going inwards and towards the center.

The centripetal acceleration can be calculated using the following equation:

$CentripetalAcceleration=\frac{v^{2}}{RadiusOfMotion}$

From the statement we know that:

$v=TangentialSpeed=\frac{2.6m}{s} \\R=3.2m$

So, calculating we have:

$CentripetalAcceleration=\frac{{2.6^{2} \frac{m}{s} }}{3.2m}=\frac{{6.76\frac{m}{s} }}{3.2m}=\frac{2.11m}{s^{2} }$

So, the correct answer is:

b. $\frac{2.11m}{s^{2}}$

Emily is a 25-year-old asian female. emily is complaining of frequent headaches over the past 3 weeks. emily is taking birth con

Tomtit [17]

Emily's symptoms include frequent headaches, light sensitivity, nausea and vomiting. The risk factors are her smoking habit and the birth control pills that she is currently taking. A possible diagnosis could be an acute condition which is caused by a serious interaction between her smoking activity and her birth control pills. It has been proven that women who smoke while on contraceptive therapy have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. This is because nicotine increases heart rate and blood pressure, while certain hormones present in some birth control pills (such as estrogen) increase the tension on blood vessels. For further diagnosis, the healthcare professional should check Emily's blood pressure and ask her family history on blood clots, heart problems, or stroke cases.
