GaryK [48]

The skin is NOT a reproductive organ and the spines attract predators are the incorrect statements.

<h3>Why the list is incorrect?</h3>

The list is incorrect because skin is not a reproductive organ and the spines do not attract predators towards each other. Skin protects the body from the outer environment whereas the spines repel the predators from the plant body.

So we can conclude that the skin is NOT a reproductive organ and the spines attract predators are the incorrect statements.

Which of the following has both kinetic and potential energy?
zysi [14]
It should be A.
A ball bouncing is moving so if it’s moving that means it has kinetic energy. It also has potential energy because when it hits the floor it kind of stops so it has potential.

-Hope this helps.

djyliett [7]

and closing .

The heart has 4 valves. They are what makes the lub-dub lub-dub sounds that can be heard from the chest.  

The mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle. It closes the left atrium to collect oxygenated blood from the lungs and opens to pass it on to the left ventricle.

The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. It closes the right atrium to hold unoxygenated blood and opens to pass it on to the right ventricle ensuring a one way flow.

The aortic valve is located between the aorta and the left ventricle. It closes the left ventricle and opens to the aorta to pass on the oxygen-rich blood to the body.

The pulmonary valve is located between the pulmonary artery and the right ventricle. It closes off the right ventricle and opens to pass on unoxygenated blood to the lungs.

A short-wave radio antenna is supported by two guy wires, 155 ft and 175 ft long. Each wire is attached to the top of the antenn
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

163.8 ft

Explanation:

In triangle ABD

AB = 155 ft

Cos63 = \frac{BD}{AB} = \frac{BD}{155}\\BD = 155 Cos63 \\BD = 70.4 ft

Sin63 = \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{AD}{155} \\AD = 166 Sin63\\AD = 148 ft

Using Pythagorean theorem in triangle ADC

AC^{2} = AD^{2} + DC^{2} \\175^{2} = 148^{2} + DC^{2} \\DC = 93.4 ft

d = distance between the anchor points

distance between the anchor points is given as

d = BD + CD = 70.4 + 93.4\\d = 163.8 ft
