1. In terms of thermal energy, why does a bottle of soda left in the sun have a higher temperature than one left in an ice bucke

t? ( Explain and use scientific terminology in all of your answers).
2. Explain why wearing two or three layers of clothing helps to keep you warmer in cold weather than does one thick layer?
3. Explain why the rug on your floor feels warmer than the tile in the same room?

1. The bottle left in the sun is exposed to the thermal energy which causes it to heat up. Ice is cold and the bottle is in direct contact with the ice.

2. Its harder for cold winds to get through to you when theres 3 or even 4 layers of clothing on your body than one thick one.

3. Common Sense?... the rug is thick and the tile is... a tile

1. First, heat can be absorbed. This is along the lines of thermodynamics, where any material has a heat capacity. This increases the molecules velocity, thus creating a higher temperature than the soda in an ice bucket. In colder environments, the molecules velocities are much slower, creating less thermal energy because there is barely any movement involved. Friction is required for thermal energy to take place.

2. The reason as to why wearing two or three layers of clothing can help you keep warmer rather than just one is because as the air travels through your clothing, each layer provides a thermal insulation that can help keep you warm. Whereas a thick layer can only divide up that amount of work compared to the two or three layers that can either specialize in what the layer does or at least cuts the work out.

3. The rugs on the floor create an insulation where it prevents the loss of heat that it has already gained. Whereas the tiles, don't have that type of heat retention due to the material it is made from. All materials are able to insulate heat somehow. However, some materials are better than others, like wool or cotton.

Explain the process by which an attack of hay fever follows exposure to pollen
Bezzdna [24]

<span>Hay fever is a manifestation of allergic reaction from pollen, which is prevalent during haying season. Hay fever is commonly known as allergic rhinitis caused by an oversensitive immune system, particularly the lymphocytes, leading to a misdirected immune response. The body undergo a sensitization when one develops IgE antibodies and develop a strong TH2 response against pollen. Then, this newly develop IgE antibodies sticks to basophils and mast cells with no signs and symptoms yet. However, when one is expose again to pollens, mast cells will be activated and release mediators who are responsible for immediate vascular and smooth muscle reaction. After this, local clinical manifestation of hay fever will be observed. </span>

Describe the information displayed by ecological pyramids Use all three pyramids (number, biomass, and energy in your answer.​
kumpel [21]

Explanation:

Edit

An ecological pyramid (also trophic pyramid, Eltonian pyramid, energy pyramid, or sometimes food pyramid) is a graphical representation designed to show the biomass or bioproductivity at each trophic level in a given ecosystem.

A pyramid of energy represents how much energy, initially from the sun, is retained or stored in the form of new biomass at each trophic level in an ecosystem. Typically, about 10% of the energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next, thus preventing a large number of trophic levels. Energy pyramids are necessarily upright in healthy ecosystems, that is, there must always be more energy available at a given level of the pyramid to support the energy and biomass requirement of the next trophic level.

A pyramid of energy shows how much energy is retained in the form of new biomass at each trophic level, while a pyramid of biomass shows how much biomass (the amount of living or organic matter present in an organism) is present in the organisms. There is also a pyramid of numbers representing the number of individual organisms at each trophic level. Pyramids of energy are normally upright, but other pyramids can be inverted or take other shapes.

Ecological pyramids begin with producers on the bottom (such as plants) and proceed through the various trophic levels (such as herbivores that eat plants, then carnivores that eat flesh, then omnivores that eat both plants and flesh, and so on). The highest level is the top of the food chain.

How many nucleotides are needed to code for an amino acid
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Three nucleotide

Explanation:

Three nucleotides are required to code for one amino acid. There are four types of nucleotides A, T, G, C which make DNA. So a doublet of nucleotide code which involves only two nucleotide would be insufficient to code for 20 amino acids because if 4 different nucleotide is taken two at a time then it can only produce 16 amino acid(4²=16).

But if we take three-nucleotide than the number reaches 64 which is more than sufficient to code for 20 different amino acids(4³= 64). Therefore 3 nucleotides are needed to code for an amino acid.
