The answer is; Mercalli intensity scale

It measures the intensity of an earthquake which can be determined by its destruction effect. The Ritcher scale on the other hand mostly measures the energy of an earthquake. The Mercalli scale ranges from I (no destruction) to XII (Total destruction).

Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

Earthquakes occurs due to the sudden trembling of the earth. These releases energy due to the propagation of seismic waves in the interior of the earth. These earthquake can cause great damages depending upon the intensity and magnitude of the earthquake.  

The Mercalli scale was invented by Giuseppe Mercalli, in the year 1902. This scale measures the intensity of an earthquake. This intensity is marked by the amount of damage it causes in a particular area. It does not determine the magnitude of the earthquake. These scale ranges from I to XII, where I depicts a earthquake of least intensity, and XII depicts an earthquake of maximum intensity and it is very destructive.

The correct answer is option (1).

In the context of the neural impulse, the membrane that encases the axon is called semipermeable because FLUIDS CAN SOMETIMES FLOW INTO OR OUT OF IT.

Semi permeability is the ability of the membrane to allow certain substances, not all, to pass through it.

in order for polar compounds to enter into the hydrophobic space of phospholipid tails, it would need to break the many ___ bond
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

In order for polar compounds to enter into the hydrophobic space of phospholipid tails, it would need to break the many <u>hydrogen</u> bonds

Explanation:

In the presence of water, the hydrophobic tails tend to interact with each other, creating a hydrophobic space from which water is excluded and in which other hydrophobic molecules can be trapped, while the polar head interacts with water, and is solvated, preserving the hydrophobic part from all contact with water. For a hydrogen bridge to form, a molecule that has hydrogen attached to an atom of high electronegativity and another molecule that has another electronegative atom with high electron density (that is, a negative partial charge) is required. Water molecules in the bulk of the body of water maintain multiple interactions with other molecules through an extensive network of hydrogen bridges, so for polar compounds to enter, it would be necessary to break many of these bonds.
