A plate glass window (n = 1.5) has a thickness of 4.5 mm. how long does it take light to pass perpendicularly through the plate?

4 0

The solution to this is to use the n = c / v equation

Where:

c is the speed of light: 3x10^8; and

The idea that v = m/s

So plug in the m/s for v in the n = c v equation and you will get:

1.5 = (3 x 10 ^ 8)/ ((4.5m)/s))

Therefore, the time should be 2.25 x 10 ^ -10 seconds.

What similarities, if any, do you think exist between a human’s reproductive cycle and the life cycle of a fern? What difference
ipn [44]

Answer:

Plant Reproduction and Life Cycle. The life cycle of a plant is very different from the life cycle of an animal. Humans are made entirely of diploid cells (cells with two sets of chromosomes, referred to as ''2n''). ... Plants, however, can live when they are at the stage of having haploid cells or diploid cells.

Explanation:

In an animal life cycle, male and female parents each create sex cells (sperm and eggs) that unite to form a fertilized egg and develop into an offspring organism. Plants, likewise, have sperm and eggs in their life cycles, but these are produced by an intermediate stage between the adult and the offspring.

Match each organelle with the correct function.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

EUKARYOTIC CELL STRUCTURE

Unlike prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells have several membrane-bound organelles. The mitochondria convert chemical energy from food into ATP, which is used to power all cell activities. The number of mitochondrion in a cell is determined by the cell's function. Muscle cells require a lot of energy, so they contain many mitochondria. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a packaging and storage facility. Rough ER contains ribosomes and is responsible for protein synthesis. Smooth ER lacks ribosomes. It is responsible for the production and storage of lipids and steroids, as well as the storage of calcium ions. The Golgi body works with the ER to create complex molecules. In animal cells, the Golgi body also creates the lysosomes that break down food and cell waste.

Like animal cells, plant cells have mitochondria, rough and smooth ER, Golgi bodies, nuclei, and cell membranes. Unlike animal cells, plant cells do not have lysosomes. They also contain two unique organelles – cell walls and chloroplasts. The main function of a cell wall is structure and support. The primary job of chloroplasts is photosynthesis. These organelles contain chlorophyll, which traps solar energy. Plant cells also have a large central vacuole that stores water and helps the cell maintain its shape.
