Explanation:
The expression or comment "Brain Freeze" means that the roof of your mouth is getting so cold that its affecting some of the nerves in your brain making it feel like a brain freeze.
Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. Eukaryotes can be single-celled or multi-celled, such as you, me, plants, fungi, and insects. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle.
There are several key differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are found in multicellular plants and animals, whereas prokaryotic cells are found in bacteria and archaea which are ususlly unicellular. I have summarised the key differences below:
Prokayotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria.
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus, instead they have circular DNA that is free in the cytoplasm.
Prokaryotic cells have smaller ribosomes than eukaryotic cells.
Prokaryotic cells have a cell wall. Their cell wall is made from a different material to a plant cell, a glycoprotein called murein.
Prokaryotic cells may also have a protective layer called a capsule, flagellum to aid in movement and one or more plasmids.
I believe that what is meant with the phrase "older explanation" is none other that superstition. Therefore, I will give you one superstitious belief which is now explained by science.
In Southeast Asia, people used to believe that St. Elmo's fire appears in remote areas because a bloody battle occured in that place leaving disembodied souls of the dead wandering there in the night and even in sunshine!
For generations, many people believed that this is a fact and some even say that these apparitions are diabolical or demonic in nature. So often, caution is advised to people whenever a ball of fire appears out in the open.
However, recent breakthroughs in the 21st century helped scientists to explain this mysterious phenomena. They found out that St. Elmo's fire is actually plasma, nothing special. Now, plasma is considered one of the states of matter! But mind you, it still does not explain why St. Elmo's fire seems to have a mind of its own!
Answer:
Main sequence, red giant, white dwarf.
Explanation:
- The life cycle of the sun is called as solar cycle and is the phase of solar development. There are about seven-stage in its life cycle. Starting with the birth of the sun that is found in the solar nebula theory took place about 4.56 billion years.
- The sun starts to enter the T Tauri stage, followed by the main sequence stage where the sun is currently in. After this stage that is when the sun runs out of hydrogen from its core.
- It will produce violent helium flashes and will shrink its size. When this happens it will reach the tip of the red giant stage. Later on, the naked core will form into a white dwarf.
