What is the difference between solar flares and prominences?

Biology
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago
7 0

A solar flare is a magnetic storm on the Sun which appears to be a very bright spot and a gaseous surface eruption. Solar flares release huge amounts of high-energy particles and gases and are tremendously hot (from 3.6 million to 24 million °F). They are ejected thousands of miles from the surface of the Sun.<span>A solar prominence (also known as a filament) is an arc of gas that erupts from the surface of the Sun. Prominences can loop hundreds of thousands of miles into space. Prominences are held above the Sun's surface by strong magnetic fields and can last for many months. At some time in their existence, most prominences will erupt, spewing enormous amounts of solar material into space.</span>

What types of traits can show genetic variation within a species?​
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Types of variation in genetics

Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring)

other answer

There are three sources of genetic variation: mutation, gene flow, and sexual reproduction. A mutation is simply a change in the DNA. Mutations themselves are not very common and are usually harmful to a population. Because of this, mutations are usually selected against through evolutionary processes

Where does oxygen move from the respiratory system to the circulatory
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: Alveoli

Explanation: Alveoli of lungs are surrounded by extensive blood capillaries. The partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli is higher than the blood entering the pulmonary capillaries, hence oxygen moves into the blood. Carbon dioxide in the lungs simultaneously diffuse out of the blood into the alveolar space.
