Answer:

65 L

Explanation:

It is assumed that the temperature is constant at both the sea level and the altitude.

<em>According to the gas law, at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.</em> Mathematically:

P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = pressure at initial volume, V1 = volume at initial pressure, P2 = pressure at final volume, and V2 = volume at final pressure.

In the illustration, V1 = 15 L, P1 = 100 kPa, V2 =?, P2 = 23 kPa

V2 = P1V1/P2 =  100 x 15/23 = 65.22 L

<u>The volume of the hot air balloon at the altitude would be 65 L</u>

Explain the benefit of an increase in capillary-action to a hockey player.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

high muscle capillary density means a large muscle-to-blood exchange surface area, short oxygen diffusion distance, and high red blood cell mean transit time.Capillary action is important for moving water (and all of the things that are dissolved in it) around. It is defined as the movement of water within the spaces of a porous material due to the forces of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension.

What do you notice about the ligands and their receptors in these images?
aliina [53]

Answer:

What can be noticed about the ligands and their receptor is that the configuration of both coincide, as a key would with its lock, which demonstrates the specificity of a receptor by its ligand.

Explanation:

A <u>ligand</u> corresponds to a molecule considered a signal or a messenger, while the <u>receptor</u> is a protein on the cell surface, with the capacity to accept a ligand.

Ligands and receptors constitute pairs that complement each other, so that <u>each receptor can bind to a specific ligand</u>, similar to what happens with a key and a lock.

Once the ligand-receptor complex is formed, changes occur inside the cell, which define a certain effect.
