Fibre crimp affects wool's properties. The crimp in wool fibers makes it soft and springy<span> to touch. It also adds bulk and traps a large volume of air between the fibers, giving it good insulation properties. Finer fibers with more crimp such as Merino create fabrics that </span>drape better than coarser<span> fibers.</span>

Answer:

The wool fiber is cylindrical in shape, resembling a flat tube.

Explanation:

The natural hair coat of sheep commonly called sheep, sheep, lambs or lambs is called wool. The wool hairs grow from the epidermis of the animal and are more or less short, thin and wavy. These are the characteristics that will define the quality of the wool type.

The shape of the wool fiber is more or less cylindrical, resembling a flat tube. Each fiber consists of a point, a shaft and a root. The tip only exists in first shearing fibers. The root consists of a bulb that is softer than the stem and where the cells are developing.

Angiosperms and life on land Many aspects of the angiosperm life cycle make flowering plants particularly well-suited to life on
vova2212 [387]
<h2>Angiosperms </h2>

Explanation:

Angiosperms are the most diverse group of plants, some statements which reflect angiosperm adaptations to life on land:

  • Flowers attract animal pollinators carrying pollen from other plants of the same species
  • Fruits aid in the dispersal of seeds by wind or by animals that carry or eat the fruits
  • In many angiosperms, the male gametophyte contained in a pollen grain can be transported many miles away by wind or animal pollinators
  • Floral parts of the sporophyte protect the reduced female gametophyte from drying out and from UV radiation
  • Seeds protect and nourish plant embryos, and fruits protect the seeds
  • Seeds enable plant embryos to be dispersed long distances from the parent plant via wind or animals

______ energy is converted into________ energy during the process of_________
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

LIGHT ENERGY is converted to CHEMICAL ENERGY in the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroyed but can only be changed from one form to another. This means that no form of energy gets destroyed but only transformed. This is evidently so in so many natural processes including the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS undergone by plants.

Photosynthesis, which is the way plants obtain their food via sunlight, converts the LIGHT ENERGY of the sun to CHEMICAL ENERGY in glucose produced. Hence, photosynthesis obeys the law of conservation of energy.

An electrically neutral molecule has the formula C3H4O2N. If the carbon atoms form the usual number of bonds, how many covalent
DENIUS [597]
Each hydrogen bond will  form ONE COVALENT bond with the other atoms in the molecule. Hydrogen has only one atom; to form a covalent bond, it has to donate one electron and the other atom that hydrogen is bonding with will donate one electron also, making two. These two electrons will be shared between the two, making the atoms to have two electrons each.
