Answer: 3
Explanation:
Given :
numC = 12
while numC > 3:
numC = numC / 2
Initial value of numC = 12
The condition checks if the value of numC is greater than 12, only then will the statement be executed and the loop isn't altered
numC = 12 is greater Than 3 ;
numC = numC/2 = 12/2 = 6
numC is now 6 ;
numC = 6 is greater than 3
numC = numC / 2 = 6/2
numC is now 3
numC = 3 is not greater than 3 ; hence, loop terminates (condition isn't met)
Hence , numC = 3
Answer:
mulch isnt really something itsself, if that makes sense.
Explanation:
A variety of materials are used <u>as</u> mulch: Organic residues: grass clippings, leaves, hay, straw, kitchen scraps comfrey, shredded bark, whole bark nuggets, sawdust, shells, woodchips, shredded newspaper, cardboard, wool, animal manure, etc.
Answer:
negative response
Explanation:
There exists three types of responses to a certain stimuli, a positive, negative, or ignoring. A positive response is when the subject is attracted to the stimuli, while a negative response is when the subject wants to avoid the stimuli. Therefore in this situation we can say that this is a negative response when the mouse hides. In this case the hawk flying over is the stimuli and the rat is trying to avoid the hawk by hiding.
A phospholipid is composed of two fatty acids, a glycerol unit, a phosphate group and a polar molecule. The phosphate group and polar head region of the molecule is hydrophillic (attracted to water), while the fatty acid tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water). When placed in water, phospholipids will orient themselves into a bilayer in which the nonpolar tail region faces the inner area of the bilayer. The polar head region faces outward and interacts with the water.
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes, which enclose and protect the cytoplasm and other contents of a cell. Phospholipids are also a major component of myelin, a fatty substance that is important for insulating nerves and speeding up electrical impulses in the brain. It is the high composition of myelinated nerve fibers that causes white matter in the brain to appear white.
Steroids and Waxes

Steroids have a carbon backbone that consists of four fused ring-like structures. Steroids include cholesterol, sex hormones (progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone) produced by gonads and cortisone.
Waxes are composed of an ester of a long-chain alcohol and a fatty acid. Many plants have leaves and fruits with wax coatings to help prevent water loss. Some animals also have wax-coated fur or feathers to repel water. Unlike most waxes, ear wax is composed of phospholipids and esters of cholesterol.
