Answer:

(C) O, C, H, N

Explanation:

<u>Roughly 96% of mass of human body is made up of four elements which are oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen.</u>

Oxygen and hydrogen are predominantly found in the water, which makes up about 60% of body's weight. Carbon is synonymous with the life. The central role of carbon is due to fact that it has four bonding sites which allow for building of long and complex chains of the molecules. Moreover, these carbon bonds can be formed and also be broken with amount of energy which makes life alive. Nitrogen is found in organic molecules, including amino acids which make up the proteins, and nucleic acids which make up the DNA.

Calculate the average atomic mass of a
Vesna [10]

Answer: 207.217 amu

Work:

203.973 amu *(0.014) = 2.855 amu

205.974 amu *(0.241) = 49.639 amu

206.976 amu *(0.221) = 45.741 amu

207.977 amu *(0.524) = 108.979 amu

2.855 + 49.639 + 45.741 + 108.979 = <em><u>207.217amu</u></em>

What happens to the area of the world off the coast of Peru
joja [24]

Answer:The Peruvian west coast bordering the Pacific Ocean is a long desert strip that stretches from the departments of Tumbes in the north bordering Ecuador, to Tacna in the south bordering Chile for a total length of 1,555 miles or 2,500 km. The average temperature from December to April is 25 to 28C or 53 to 59F and the average temperature from May to November is 12 to 15C or 53 to 59F.

The coast covers about 10% of the territory but is home to more than 50% of the population. Large cities such as Lima, the capital, Trujillo, Chiclayo and Tacna are located in the coast. Cities along the coast are the center of economic activity attracting people from the interior of the country looking for economic prosperity.

idk hope this helps !!!!

An objects kinetic energy increases as its velocity increases?
stira [4]

Answer:

Because kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, increases in velocity will have an exponentially greater effect on translation kinetic energy. Doubling the mass of an object will only double its kinetic energy, but doubling the velocity of the object will quadruple its velocity.
