Complete Question:

Which of these best describes the relationship between changes in air pressure and wind speeds?  

A: When a high- and a low-pressure air mass are far apart, air moves quickly from low to high pressure.

B: When a high- and a low-pressure air mass are far apart, air moves quickly from high to low pressure.

C: When a high- and a low-pressure air mass are close together, air moves slowly from high to low pressure.

D: When a high- and a low-pressure air mass are far apart, air moves slowly from high to low pressure.  

E: The greater the difference in pressure, the faster the winds.

Answer: <em>is Option E and Option D.</em>

D: When a high and a low pressure air mass are far apart, air moves slowly from high to low pressure.

E: The greater the difference in pressure, the faster the winds.

The rules in the movement of the air masses is quite easy and simple. The air masses with high pressure always move towards the air masses with lower pressure. The wind speed is lower when the difference in the air pressure is very small. Similarly the wind is speed is faster when the difference in the air pressure is larger.

When air pressures are far apart with different pressures (low and high), there will be no movement of air, or a gradual slow movement occur resulting in slower wind speed.

If a plant cell is placed in a salt water solution, where the concentration of water is greater in the solution than in the cell
-Dominant- [34]
Salt reduces the amount of water in a solution, because you're introducing another molecule. If the water concentrations are different, the water is going to want to reach an equilibrium to balance itself out. Because the salt solution has a higher water concentration than the plant cell, the water will move into the cell to try and balance out the concentrations. If the salt solution had a lower water concentration (water potential) then water would move from the cell into the solution.

What is the purpose of having a control and a variable in an experiment?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

a control helps to increase the reliability of the results. it allows a scientist to compare it to other group(s) in an experiment. if a scientist notices a significant different btwn the control and the other groups, he can logically conclude that the independent variable has an impact on the dependent variable.

a variable is any factor, trait or condition that can exist in differing amounts or types. there are usually three tpes of variables in experiments: the independent, dependent and contolled. the independent variable variable is the one that is changed by the scientists to figure it's affect on something.

According to the _____ of color vision, receptor cells are linked in pairs, working in opposition to each other.
slavikrds [6]
The appropriate response is an opponent-process theory. Opponent-process theory is a mental and neurological model that records for an extensive variety of practices, including shading vision. This model was first proposed in 1878 by Ewald Hering, a German physiologist.
