Why do coastal cities tend to have more moderate climates than cities in the middle of continents?

Biology

Debora [2.8K]3 years ago

The correct option is B.
Coastal cities usually have large bodies of water around them while cities in the middle of continent have land masses surrounding them. One of the unique property of water is its relative high heat specific capacity. It takes a lot of heating before there will be significant change in the temperature of water, thus, cities around water bodies tend to experience more stable temperature. Land masses on the other hand does not absorb heat like water, thus, there is higher rate of climate fluctuation.

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is very high therefore it does not get heated up easily. Other geographic structures such as land, rocks etc. have low specific heat capacity and gets heated up in a short while. While water maintains its cool temperature. Therefore the Sea breezes blow from ocean/sea towards the land and thereby make its climate moderate.  

Therefore, coastal cities experiences moderate climate as compared to that of continental cities.  

Hence, option C is correct

A student named Janine says that the measure of side b is 64 ft. Please state whether this is correct or incorrect. If this is i
kolezko [41]

The measure of side b as 64 ft is incorrect. The accurate measure would be 8 ft.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse of a right-angle triangle is the sum of squares of the opposite and the adjacent sides. Mathematically:

hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + adjacent^2

In this case, the hypotenuse = 10 ft, the opposite = 6 ft and the adjacent = b

Hence,

b^2 = 10^2 - 6^2

       = 100 - 36

          = 64

b = √64

     = 8 ft

Thus, the side b is 8 ft and not 64 ft.

What role does photosythesis have in the carbon cycle?
cluponka [151]

During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle. ... In all four processes, the carbon dioxide released in the reaction usually ends up in the atmosphere.

What is RFLP? What are some of the limitations of this technique?
bearhunter [10]
In molecular biology, restriction fragment length polymorphism, orRFLP, is a technique that exploits variations in homologous DNA sequences. It refers to a differencebetween samples of homologous DNAmolecules from differing locations ofrestriction enzyme sites, and to a related laboratory technique by which these segments can be illustrated. InRFLP analysis, the DNA sample is broken into pieces and (digested) byrestriction enzymes and the resultingrestriction fragments are separated according to their lengths by gel electrophoresis. Although now largely obsolete due to the rise of inexpensive DNA sequencing technologies, RFLP analysis was the first DNA profilingtechnique inexpensive enough to see widespread application. RFLP analysis was an important tool in genome mapping, localization of genes forgenetic disorders, determination of riskfor disease, and paternity testing.
Hope it helps..
