What type of wave do the contractions of the snake muscles make as the snake moves forward

Chemistry
1 answer:
S_A_V [24]4 years ago
3 0
Actually, there are four kinds of reptile motion: 

Concertina - vermiform. Circular muscles around the snake squeeze the front of the snake's body out long, then the latter half is pulled forward. 

Rectilinear crawling - Belly scutes are moved forward individually in a wave-like motion. 

Side-winding - Snake's version of "walking". Use by several species to move over fluidic substrates, such as sand. 

Lateral undulation - Most common form of movement. Snake presses on alternating pressure points to force body forward (or backward)

Wich are the disadvantages of skimming oil spills?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Oil is sucked up through wide floating heads and pumped into storage tanks. Although suction skimmers are generally very efficient, one disadvantage is that they are vulnerable to becoming clogged by debris and ice and require constant skilled observation.

Summarize the five points of Dalton’s atomic theory, and explain at least one change that occurred to the atomic theory because
Umnica [9.8K]
The postulates of Dalton's theory were:
1) Elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms
2) <span>Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties
</span>3) <span>Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed</span>
4) Atoms combine in whole number ratio to form compounds
5) Chemical reactions are the rearrangement of atoms
The third postulate has been disproved by modern science, in which the atom has been split and been subdivided into smaller parts such as the neutron, proton and electron, which are further subdivided into quarks, gluons, and kaons.
The second postulate was also disproved upon the discovery of isotopes.

Given 24.3 g of LICI, Find moles of PbCI, produced.<br> PbSO4 + LiCl → PbCl2 + Li2SO4
Tema [17]

Answer:

0.29 moles of PbCl₂

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of lithium chloride = 24.3 g

Moles of PbCl₂ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation;

PbSO₄ + 2LiCl    →    PbCl₂ + Li₂SO₄

Number of moles of LiCl:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 24.3 g/ 42.394 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.57 mol

Now we will compare the moles of PbCl₂ with LiCl .

            LiCl               :          PbCl₂

              2                 :            1

              0.57            :        1/2×0.57 = 0.29 mol
