Answer: True

Ocean water is saline. The salt in the ocean comes from rocks on land.   The rain falls on the rocks erodes the rocks . The rain being acidic in nature due to the presence of carbonic acid creates ions, or electronically charged  atomic particles. These ions are carried away by the streams of rivers and ultimately to oceans. The two of the most abundant ions produced by this process are sodium and chloride. These make up 90% of dissolved ions in the ocean. The concentration of the salt in seawater is about 35 parts per thousand. In other words about 3.5 percent of the weight of seawater comes from the dissolved salts.

If you want to change the pitch of a sound, you have to change the ___ Question 7 options: volume speed amplitude frequency
charle [14.2K]

The correct answer is frequency.

The pitch can be defined as the quality of sound produced by the rate of vibration producing it.

It is directly related to the the frequency of the sound wave. If the frequency is increased then its pitch will also increase and vice versa.

As for normal people it is a bit difficult to differentiate between the two but the musician are trained so they can differentiate the difference between the two even if the difference is 2 Hz

The ___________ propel debris-laden mucus away from lower respiratory system structures.
Aliun [14]

The cilia propel debris-laden mucus away from lower respiratory system structures.

<h3>What is function of mucous membrane?</h3>
  • Another general defense against possible infections is provided by the mucous membranes that line the digestive, urinary, and respiratory tracts, as well as the nose, mouth, and lungs.
  • In order to cover and protect the more delicate cell layers underneath it and to trap waste and particle matter, including microorganisms, mucous membranes are made up of a layer of epithelial cells connected by tight junctions.
  • Because they feature ciliated appendages, which resemble hairs, the epithelial cells lining the upper portions of the respiratory tract are known as ciliated epithelial cells.
  • Mucus that contains debris is forced out and away from the lungs by the cilia's movement. The mucus is then coughed up, sneezed out, or swallowed and destroyed in the stomach. The mucociliary escalator is another name for this route of elimination.
