The deep scattering layer (DSL) also known as "<em>deep sound layer</em>", refers to an oceanic deep layer, more or less defined, that reflects sound and that is formed by a wide variety of animals. It is present in almost every ocean. It is produced by the presence of many organisms of different species that can disperse the sonar waves sent by a sonar equipment.
It was discovered through the ships´ sonar. Whenever they met a layer in which the sound hit, and was often confused with the bottom of the ocean. This is why the DSL is refered to as the "fake bottom".
These animals form layers of not less than 10 meters thick and might easily reach up to 50 meters thick. These layers are often found between 50 and 200 meters deep and can be seen going up and down every day according to the daily vertical migration.
This statement is true. Plaque is considered dangerous because it can break off and create a clot in the arteries. one of the most common results of this is heart attack.
The answer is 12.5%. Each gram of protein has four calories. Therefore, 50 grams of protein contain 200 calories. In order to find the percentage of total energy intake that comes from protein, we need to do the division: 200/1600 * 100 = 12.5. Protein is needed for body growth and maintenance and energy.
E. It takes a picture of the brain according to oxygen levels. More oxygen in an area indicates more activity in that area.
Explanation:
Haemoglobin is diamagnetic when oxygenated but paramagnetic when deoxygenated. This distinction in magnetic characteristics leads to tiny variations in the blood MR signal. Since blood oxygenation differs, these variations can be used to identify brain activity depending on the concentrations of neural activity.
