Which of the following descriptions explains the process of water freezing?

Biology
1 answer:
Olenka [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: B. Water molecules slow down until they begin to bond together.

Explanation: When water is cooled, energy is removed from the system, and the molecules begin to slow down. When the  molecules have slowed suciently, their collisions are no longer energetic enough to overcome their electrostatic attraction, and  they begin to bond together. The other answer choices are inaccurate. Since ice is less dense than water, high pressure  compresses the ice and actually causes it to melt. (Compression has no effect on water volume.) Cooling has no effect on the  shape of individual water molecules.

Which electrons have the most energy in an atom?
Ket [755]
The correct option is THE ELECTRON IN THE OUTERMOST ELECTRON SHELL.
Different levels of energy exist in the atom of an element and these levels are filled with electrons. The electrons in the innermost shell has the lowest energy level while the electrons in the outermost shell has the highest energy level. For an electron to increase its energy level, it has to move to an higher shell; and to decrease its energy level it has to move to a lower shell.

What is epidermal tissue​
igomit [66]

Epidermal tissue system is the outermost covering of plants. It consists of epidermis, stomata and epidermal outgrowths.

Which structure connects the left and right cerebral hemispheres in the human brain?
victus00 [196]
<h2>Corpus callosum</h2>

Explanation:

  • The corpus callosum associates the left half of the cerebrum to the correct side, each side being known as a side of the equator. The association permits data to go between the two parts.
  • Corpus callosum is Latin for "extreme body," and the corpus callosum is the biggest connective pathway in the mind, being comprised of in excess of 200 million nerve strands.  
  • Occasionally, an individual will be conceived without a corpus callosum. This is known as agenesis of the corpus callosum, and it causes a wide assortment of physical and social indications.  
  • Each side of the mind controls development and feeling in the contrary portion of the body. The halves of the globe additionally process data, for example, language.  
  • In this manner, physical coordination and taking in complex data requires the two sides of the cerebrum to cooperate.

This is an active transport mechanism by which cells pump sodium and potassium ions against the concentration gradient.
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Primary active transport

Explanation:

Primary active transport is the transport in which molecules are moved against their gradient, with direct use of ATP as an energy source. Na/K pump  is an example  of primary active transport: Na ions are transported out of cell, K ions are moved into the cell. This pumps maintain concentrations of those ions and also creates voltage across the cell membrane, which can be used for the secondary active transport of other molecules (e.g. glucose).
