Which statement is true of jet streams?

Biology
1 answer:
PSYCHO15rus [73]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Option D is correct: "The polar jet stream lies between the polar easterlies and trade  winds."

Explanation:

The direction in which the polar jet stream travels is determined by the Rossby waves in the atmosphere, which are harmonic waves. The polar functions as a heat sink and transfers the ample heat in the direction of the polar regions, all the way from the equator.

During a melting point determination, it is normal to first take a rapid rough measurement followed by a slower more accurate me
mart [117]

The right answer is A rapid temperature increase will give a melting point range that is too high.

The melting point is determined in a capillary tube. it means the temperature at which the substance is completely melted, indicated by the disappearance of the solid, will not differ by ± 4 ° C from the given value, unless otherwise indicated.

The following technique can be applied to determine the melting point:

Grind some amount of substance in a small mortar. Place in a vacuum desiccator containing silica gel or phosphorus pentoxide and allow to dry for 24 hours at room temperature (unless another method of drying is indicated in the test protocol) . Introduce the substance into a dry capillary tube 1 mm inside diameter to form a column about 3 mm high. Heat the melting device to a temperature 5 to 10 ° C below the expected melting temperature and adjust the heating so that the temperature of the enclosure rises by approximately 1 ° C per minute. Introduce the capillary tube containing the substance into the heated chamber and note the temperature at which the agglomerated substance becomes completely transparent; this temperature constitutes the melting point.

why the inner planets are dense and rocky while the outer planets have low densities with no solid surfaces
SVEN [57.7K]
<span>The Inner Planets dense and rocky because they are close enough to the sun that the heat has driven off the free hydrogen and helium which forms most of the Gas Giant planets (and most of the universe). Only the heavier elements remain.

And please put the questions in right subject. It belongs to "Physics" not for "Biology". 

Hope this helps!</span>

What is the name of the process whereby a platform with many wells is secured to the ocean floor?
Andru [333]

Answer:

Option A, Offshore Drilling

Explanation:

In the process of offshore drilling, oil is extracted from the wells which are located at the surface of ocean floor.

Different types of oil rigs are used for oil extraction depending on the depth of the ocean.  

It is a good mode of extracting oil from sources that have remained untapped since long. With the new technology, several nations have been able to explore this oil reserve and have become independent in terms of energy

Hence, option A is correct

Which of the following best describes what happens to an enzyme after it catalyzes a chemical reaction?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B. It is unchanged and can be used for the same chemical reaction.</em>

Explanation:

Enzymes can be described as proteins which act as biological catalysts. Enzymes can speed up a reaction. During this process, the enzyme itself doesn't get consumed and hence, it can be reused. Enzymes are specific for a particular type of substrate and hence, they can catalyze only those reactions for which they are specific. Hence, option B is correct.

Other options like option A is not correct because the mass of an enzyme will not change after a reaction.
