Answer:it is known to be a reflex action called acoustic stapedius reflex or ASR

Explanation:

Loud noise can damage cells and membrane in the cochlea. Listening to loud noise for a long time can over work hair cells in the ear which can cause these cells to die.

Harmful effect might continue even after noise exposure has stopped.

ASR is a reflex in which the stapedius muscle contracts involuntarily within one-tenth of ascend in response to noise...

Name and describe the three factors that change the rate of weathering?
k0ka [10]

Answer:  

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soils, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, water, and biological organisms. Weathering occurs in situ (i.e., on site, without displacement), that is, in the same place, with little or no movement, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the transport of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.

Allen pours water into a graduated cylinder. He notices that the surface of the water is curved, as shown below.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

When water is added to a graduated cylinder, having a surface where the sides of the water look higher than the center means that the curved surface is a concave meniscus which has formed because of surface tension (Choice C).

Explanation:

A meniscus is simply the curvature that the surface of a liquid acquires when it is in a container, such as a graduated cylinder. It is concave when there is attraction between molecules -water and glass- or it can be convex when both surfaces are repelled.

<u>Water is a polar molecule</u>, with the capacity to adhere to the surfaces it comes into contact with. This characteristic causes it to form a concave meniscus, as the outermost molecules adhere to the glass surface, while the surface tension of the water attracts the molecules from the centre downwards, causing the concavity.
