The answer to this question would be: prostate glands

The term upper end is a bit ambiguous and it should be better to call it the proximal end of the urethra. The upper ends of the urethra, near the bladder, there is an organ called prostate. The prostate is a gland that only found in males as its function was to produce seminal fluid, make it a bit alkali.

The prostate gland is the structure that encircles the upper end of the urethra. Its main functions is to produce and secrete a fluid (prostate fluid) that helps sperm. The prostate fluid helps the sperm by protecting and nourishing. It is also a muscle that aid in propelling the seminal fluid.

Calculate the weight of an object of 30 kg on Earth. 2. Calculate the weight of an object of 30000 g on Earth. 3. Calculate the

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

1. 294N

2. 294N

3. 19.6N

4. 19.6N

5. 4.9N

6. 4.9N

7. 80N

8. 185N

Explanation:

The weight of an object is the force that gravity is having over it, and we measure it in Neutowns (N), which equals Kg x m/s².

To find the weight of an object, we use the formula F= m x g.

F stands for force, m for the object's mass, and g for gravity, which is the force that attracts objects to Earth, and we measure it by the acceleration that an object has during free falling.

The Earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s²

1. We use the formula F=m x g

F= 30kg x 9.8 m/s²

F= 294 N

2. We have to convert the 30000g into kg to use the formula

30000÷1000= 30kg

30000g equals to 30Kg, so the object's mass (m) is 30Kg.

F= m X g

F= 30kg X 9.8 m/s²

F= 294 N

3. F= m X g

F= 2kg X 9.8 m/s²

F= 19.6 N

4.We have to convert the 2000g into Kg.

2000÷1000= 2Kg

The object's mass (m) is 2Kg.

F= m X g

F= 2kg X 9.8 m/s²

F= 19.6 N

5. F= m X g

F= 0.5 kg X 9.8 m/s²

F= 4.9 N

6.We have to convert 500g to Kg.

500g÷1000=0.5Kg

The object's mass (m) is 0.5 kg

F= m X g

F= 0.5 Kg X 9.8 m/s²

F= 4.9 N

7. The gravity on the moon is different from the one on Earth. In the formula, instead of 9.8 m/s² for the gravity (g), we use 1.6 m/s².

F= m X g

F= 50Kg X 1.6m/s²

F= 80N

8. The gravity (g) on Mars is 3.7 m/s², so we have to use it in the formula where it says g to find the object's weight on Mars

F= 50Kg X 3.7m/s²

F= 185 N

Whats the relationship between DNA,chromosomes,and genes?

Elina [12.6K]

DNA is a chain of nucleotides bonded together. On that chain there are particular portions of it that the sequence of the nucleotide codes for particular proteins; this is known as a gene. In eukaryotric cells, DNA is coiled around proteins such as histones to form chromatids which when two join at the centre by a centromere to form a chromosome.

Hey, do you think you can help me with these questions? I'll give some extra points(can give more if needed)

rjkz [21]

Answer:

1. Both neutron stars and black holes are the corpses of stars that died in explosions known as supernovas. Black holes form when the most massive stars die and neutron stars form when stars not as large die. They both have a very strong gravitational pull, but a black hole's pull is stronger than a neutron star. Neutron stars will turn into black holes if the force of gravity breaks the resistance of electrons.

2. White dwarfs are degenerate, which means they can compress matter. The material in a white dwarf no longer undergoes fusion reactions, so it is supported only by electron degeneracy pressure. This causes it to be extremely dense, saving space and energy.

3. A light year is the distance light travels in a year while an astronomical unit is the average distance between the earth and the sun.

4. A convection zone transfers energy by radiation and conduction.
