Defend the following stetement: All compounds are substances, but not all substances are compounds

Biology
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]4 years ago
3 0

A compound is always a substance because it's made out of two or more atoms bonded together. Now a substance isn't always a compound because it takes two or more elements to create a compound in a chemical reaction, ans substances can contain only one element. In other words a substance can be constructed of one type of atom. Some substances that aren't compounds are: gold and baking soda.

Imagine that four genes on a single chromosome in a mutant phenotype of Drosophila cross over at half the normal rate as in the
lesantik [10]

We know that frequency of recombination is proportional with the distance between the genes on the chromosome. Therefore when the recombination rate is higher that means the distance between the genes on the chromosome is bigger. If the recombination rate is lower that means the genes are closer to each other on the chromosome. In this case the cross over rate is half the normal rate in the wild-type. That means that on the genetic map the distance between the two genes on the wild type will be twice bigger than the genes of the mutated Drosophila.

After a big meal, in those individuals who do not have type i diabetes, the pancreas secretes insulin, which circulates through
chubhunter [2.5K]
This is an example of negative feedback. 

After a big meal, glucose levels in the bloodstream increases. The body recognises this change and goes through homeostasis, or the regulation of bodily state or internal environment.

The pancreas secretes insulin, which then binds to insulin receptors. This will result in the uptake of excess glucose from the bloodstream into cells and converted into glycogen to be stored in cells as energy storage molecules. 

Since there is the counter effect of body (i.e. when blood-glucose concentration increases, the body sends a signal to decrease the blood-glucose concentration, this is called a negative feedback (instead of a positive feedback, which occurs if for e.g. the body signals cells to increase blood-glucose concentration even after blood-glucose concentration increased after a heavy meal).

An air mass forms over the North Pole region describe what you think the temperature and humidity of this air mass will be like?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: hope this helps :)

The motion of air mass motion is usually based upon the air flow in the upper atmosphere. As the jet stream changes intensity and position, it affects the motion and strength of air masses. Where air masses converge, they form boundaries called "fronts".

3-D view of a cold front.

Fronts are identified by change of temperature based upon their motion. With a cold front, a colder air mass is replacing a warmer air mass. A warm front is the opposite affect in that warm air replaces cold air. There is also a stationary front, which, as the name implies, means the boundary between two air masses does not move.

The motion of air masses also affects where a good portion of precipitation occurs. The air of cold air masses is more dense than warmer air masses. Therefore, as these cold air masses move, the dense air undercuts the warmer air masses forcing the warm air up and over the colder air causing it to rise into the atmosphere.

So, fronts just don't appear at the surface of the earth, they have a vertical structure or slope to them as well. Warm fronts typically have a gentle slope so the air rising along
