Answer:
<h3>7 milliliters or 7 cubic centimeters</h3>
Explanation:
1 cubic centimeter = 1 milliliter
You can measure the volume of a rock using cubic centimeters because rocks do not have a defined shaped so you have to use water displacement to find the volume of a rock. If you had a defined shape there are different methods but for an undefined shape( rocks) you use this method.
To solve all you have to do is know how much there was in the container without the rock then how much there was with the rock. Then you take the total and subtract the original measurement you had.
17-10=7 mL or 7 cubic centimeters
Answer: B) there is a decrease in kinetic energy and the molecules get closer together.
Explanation: Kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature, thus as temperature decreases, kinetic energy also decreases.
Gas is the state of matter in which particles are very loosely bound and hence can easily move past one another very easily and have highest kinetic energy.
Liquid is the state of matter in which particles are loosely bound and hence can move past one another easily and have high kinetic energy.
Solid is the state of matter in which particles are tightly bound and hence can not move easily and have low kinetic energy.
Thus on moving from gaseous to solid state, the kinetic energy decreases and the molecules get closer together.
I believe it should match as the following...
sight in whales -----> eyeballs in cavefish
balance in monkeys -----> tailbone in humans
attachment point for limbs in frogs -----> pelvis bone in whales
Answer:
It is pertinent to understand what hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solution means before setting out to explain how a cell reaches equilibrium in each type of solution.
A hypertonic solution is one whose solute concentration is higher than that of the sap of a cell that is immersed in it.
A hypotonic solution is one with the same solute concentration as that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.
An isotonic solution has a lower solute concentration than that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.
In biological systems, water molecules move by osmosis from the region of higher water potential or lower concentration of solutes to the region of lower water potential or higher concentration of solute. An equilibrium is reached when there is no net movement of water between two sides. Hence;
A cell placed in a hypertonic solution will lose water to the surrounding solution until an equilibrium is reached. This means that such a cell will end up shrinking (wilting) or even dying due to loss of water from the cell sap.
A cell placed in a hypotonic solution will gain water from the surrounding solution until there is no net movement of water anymore. Such a cell might become turgid or even burst out its cell content.
A cell placed in an isotonic solution will neither gain nor lose water because the cell sap and the surrounding solution have equal solute concentrations.
