Bones of snakes are very loosely fused together like in humans. Hence these bones can move individually allowing the snakes to be really flexible. The ribs of snakes do not join like those of humans but instead, have free ends and do not have a sternum.

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 0.4 kHz traveling at 16 m/s?
larisa86 [58]

Answer: 0.04metres

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance covered by the wave after one complete cycle. It is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ

Recall that Velocity (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

V = F λ

Make λ the subject formula

λ = V / F

In this case Frequency = 0.4 kHz

Convert kilohertz to hertz by multiplying 0.4 by 1000 i.e (0.4 x 1000Hz) = 400Hz

Velocity of wave = 16 m/s

So, λ = V / F

λ = 16 m/s / 400Hz

λ = 0.04metres

Thus, the wavelength of a wave is 0.04metres

Adaptations of cones and rodes
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Both cones and rods participate in dark adaptation, slowly increasing their sensitivity to light in a dim environment. Cones adapt faster, so the first few minutes of adaptation reflect cone-mediated vision.

Why is having a large surface area<br> important for a cell?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

One beneficial result of a cell having a larger surface area is its ability to cover more area increasing the likely hood of nutrients coming in contact with the cell membrane. Which in turn will increase the rate at which nutrients diffuse through the cell membrane.
