Answer:

Option D, Green roofs

Explanation:

Green roofs are also known as eco-roofs in which a vegetative layer is placed on a flat or sloped roof. Beneath this roof, a waterproofing system is also placed. These roofs have been categorized based on the length on the plantation. Some of the major benefits of green roofs are –  

a) They are climatically oriented as they play an important role in regulating the temperature and purifying the air.

b) They prevent flow of rain water and saves energy.

c) Regulate the internal ambient temperature and urban heat island affect

d) Prevent particulate matter from the air  

Hence, option D is correct

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Three primary components of axial skeleton are skull, vertebral column and ribs.

Explanation:

Axial skeleton forms the central axis f the body. Three primary component of axial skeleton are:

Skull: Skull protects the brain and supports the face structure. Twenty two bones are present in the skull. Two main categories of skull bone are cranial bone and facial bone.

Vertebral column: Vertebral columns support and protects the spinal cord. The vertebral column serves as the attachment site for the muscles and neck.

Ribs cage: Ribs cage is also known as thoracic cage and includes the structure of sternum, ribs, coastal cartilage and thoracic cartilage. Ribs consists of twelve bones.

1.solve for p
Mnenie [13.5K]
<h3>1. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>p =-3/2p</em>

<h3><u>Solution;</u></h3>

To solve for P  in the equation;

= 3(p + q ) = p

We open the brackets;

= 3p + 3q = p

Then, we combine the like terms together, we get;

 <em>  3p - p = -3q</em>

<em> Therefore; 2p = -3q</em>

<em>   hence;  p = -3/2q. </em>


<h3>2. <u>Answers</u>;</h3>

<em>b = 19/2</em>

<h3><u>Solution;</u></h3>

To solve for b when the value of a = 3

4a = 2b - 7

we substitute 3 with a in the equation

<em>( 4 × 3 ) = 2b -7</em>

<em>12 = 2b -7</em>

<em>Then, make b the subject</em>

<em>19 = 2b</em>

<em>b = 19/2</em>


<h3>3. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>r =d/t</em>

<h3><u><em>Solution;</em></u></h3>

To solve for r 

d= rt.

In order to get r, we divide both sides by t

<em>d/t = rt/t</em>

<em>r =  d/t</em>


<h3>4. <u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Width = 30 units</em>

<h3><u>Solution;</u></h3>

The width of a rectangle with a given perimeter of 90 and length is 15.

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by;

Perimeter= 2(Length + Width)

Thus;<em> Perimeter = 90 , length=15 </em>

<em> 90 = 2 (W + 15)</em>

<em>Dividing both sides by 2,</em>

<em>45 = w + 15 </em>

<em>Subtracting from both sides;</em>

<em>W = 45 -15 </em>

<em>W = 30 </em>

Therefore,<em><u> the width of the rectangle is 30 units</u></em>

What are the two different results of a lack of calcium and a lack of atp?
liq [111]
<span>There are numerous proteins in muscle. The main two are thin actin filaments and thick myosin filaments. Thin filaments form a scaffold that thick filaments crawl up. There are many regulatory proteins such as troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin. There are also proteins that stabilize the cells and anchor the filaments to other cellular structures. A prime example of this is dystrophin. This protein is thought to stabilize the cell membrane during contraction and prevent it from breaking. Those who lack completely lack dystrophin have a disorder known as Duchene muscular dystrophy. This disease is characterized by muscle wasting begininng in at a young age and usually results in death by the mid 20s. The sarcomere is the repeating unit of skeletal muscle. 

Muscle cells contract by interactions of myosin heads on thick filament with actin monomers on thin filament. The myosin heads bind tightly to actin monomers until ATP binds to the myosin. This causes the release of the myosin head, which subsequently swings foward and associates with an actin monomer further up the thin filament. Hydrolysis and of ATP and the release of ADP and a phosphate allows the mysosin head to pull the thick filament up the thin filament. There are roughly 500 myosin heads on each thick filament and when they repeatedly move up the thin filament, the muscle contracts. There are many regulatory proteins of this contraction. For example, troponin I, troponin C, and tropomyosin form a regulatory switch that blocks myosin heads from binding to actin monomers until a nerve impulse stimulates an influx of calcium. This causes the switch to allow the myosin to bind to the actin and allows the muscle to contract. </span><span>
