Systems in nature tend to undergo changes toward___? Explain your answer.

1 answer:

6 0

The correct answer is option 2. Systems, by nature, tend to undergo changes toward higher entropy and lower energy since this is the state where they are most stable. Entropy is the degree of disorderliness of a substance. Systems tend to go to higher disorder since systems always tend to change which can be linked to disorder and is inevitable.

Answer:

400 J

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 4.00 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 5.00 m/s²

Find: v²

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (5.00 m/s²) (4.00 m)

v² = 40.0 m²/s²

Find KE:

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (20.0 kg) (40.0 m²/s²)

KE = 400 J

Once the genes are copied, where do they go?

Anna [14]

By copying their genomes, they retain the tool kit and at the same time generate a garage full of spare parts. Gene duplication can provide the raw material for expression changes to occur, and polyploidy itself can trigger epigenetic changes

Compare positive and negative feedback mechanisms.

NeX [460]

Answer:

In positive feedback mechanism, the output is fed back to the system which further increases the output. Hence, it is known as positive feedback because it amplifies the output.

In the negative feedback mechanism, the output is fed back to the system which further decreases the the output. Hence, it is known as negative feedback because it reduces the output.
