Answer:

Although the drop-down boxes are not shown, I will answer the question as follows:

The etymology of the word pericardium comes from the Greek perikardion; Greek prefix "peri" meaning "around" and the suffix "cardio" meaning "heart"

With this information you can solve the question.

Explanation:

The pericardium is a double layer where the heart is lodged. It has two membranes: the fibrous pericardium and the serous pericardium. The fibrous pericardium is formed by connective tissue. Its function is to protect the heart from the outside, it also allows you to join it with the heart cavity. While the serous pericardium is a bag where the myocardium is lodged. It consists of two layers: the visceral layer, joins the heart muscle, and the parietal layer, attached to the serous pericardium.

inysia [295]

Answer:

Montesquieu said that "every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go". Agree with this statement.

Explanation:

In the book, "The Spirits of the Law", Montesquieu wrote that powers of a government should be divided between three: legislative, executive and judiciary. This separation is important to make sure that a single group of individuals are not given too much of a power. This would ensure that power is not abused.

He said that history has proved that political power has always been abused by a person who has it in abundance. So, to promote political liberty he thought it is important that there are separate branches of powers in a government.

So, Montesquieu made such a system with checks and balances so that no man uses law to do things he shouldn't do and also he refrains from doing what he is allowed to do.

The activation energy needed for a chemical reaction Ian decreased by a
astraxan [27]

The activation energy needed for the chemical reaction decreased by an Enzyme.

Activation energy is the amount of energy required in a chemical reaction.

Enzymes lowers the activation energy by increasing the rate of reaction.

The energy required for a reaction to start is called activation energy. Enzymes are proteins that lower the activation energy of a reaction. In doing this, enzymes increase the rate of a reaction, helping it to occur faster. However, enzymes are not consumed in a reaction; they simply help it to occur.

Suppose an exponentially growing culture of bacteria is treated with a potential antimicrobial compound. Over the next few hours
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Bacteriostatic

Explanation:

The antibiotics are the compounds which are used to treat the bacteria and are of two types: the bacteriostatic and bactericidal.

The bacteriostatic antibiotics are the antibiotics that do not kill the cells but they stop the reproduction of the bacteria and keep them in their stationary phase.

In the given question, since the antibiotic does not kill the cell but stops the doubling that is reproduction therefore the antibiotic is bacteriostatic.

Thus, bacteriostatic is correct.

Birds, insects, and many reptiles excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of uric acid, which _____. see concept 44.2 (page 980)
Degger [83]
<span>The answer would be:
reduces water loss compared to other nitrogenous wastes, but requires more metabolic energy to produce

Nitrogen waste needs to be removed out of the body. There are a few ways to remove the nitrogen waste but it will vary in the amount of energy used. 
Uric acid is less soluble which makes it won't be secreted in urine, thus reducing the need to urinate and reduce water loss. But the production of uric acid need hydrolysis of ATP, so it needs more energy.
Fish will secrete the waste as ammonia which soluble in water but doesn't need ATP to synthesize.</span>
