Which force is responsible for waves and surface currents?

1 answer:

3 0

Ocean tides are caused by the gravitation of the Moon. Currents can be formed by the flow of tidal water around the continental plates, or by a difference in water temperature between large ocean areas. Surface waves are caused by the wind. Abnormal waves can be created by the tectonic movement of plates around and under the ocean floor (tsunamis). So as you can see, the answer is (C) Gravity

Why are enzymes important for our bodies

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Because enzymes have many functions as chemical catalysts in numerous chemical reactions (for example in metabolism). By lowering the activation energy, they make it much easier to carry out reactions. They are also indispensable for signal transduction and cell regulation, often via kinases and phosphatases. They also generate movement, with myosin hydrolyzing ATP to generate muscle contraction, and also transport cargo around the cell as part of the cytoskeleton. Other ATPases in the cell membrane are ion pumps involved in active transport.

How does leaf structure best represent the relationship between structure and function? It indicates the maximum height an organ

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is - *It relates directly to the characteristics of the plant's environment*

Explanation:

The relationship between structure and function can be represented by the leaf structure as the structure of a particular plant leaf gives an idea about the characteristics of the environment it is habituated.

In the dry area or deserted area, leaves are modified into spikes to save water in order to lower transpiration, number of waxy coating, number of chlorophyll, and other modifications that give an idea about the environment and light intensity, and other characteristics.

Which is the order of airflow during inhalation?

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Nasal cavity, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli.

Explanation:

The air travels through the respiratory system during inhalation in the next order:

Nasal cavity: You inhale air into your nose.
Larynx: The air travels down to this organ, a hollow, tubular structure that plays a key role in phonation, respiration, and deglutition.
Trachea: (Or windpipe) is a wide, hollow and cartilaginous tube that connects the larynx to the bronchi.
Bronchi: The trachea divides into two primary bronchi; they are the main passageway into the lungs.
Bronchioles: The bronchi develop smaller the closer they get to the lung tissue and are then consider bronchioles.
Alveoli: They are tiny air sacs located at the end of the bronchioles, which is the site of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the respiratory system.
