Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a radioactive process involving the splitting of a large unstable nucleus into smaller/lighter nuclei with the release of large amount of energy. The large amount of energy is achieved by bombarding fast moving neutron against the the unstable nucleus of the large substance/elements undergoing fission. The resulting energy (produced from the fission) is used in nuclear reactors to heat water (to produce electricity), which can also cause a turbine to convert its kinetic energy into mechanical energy.

Endler's Guppies Experiment on Natural Selection
Morgarella [4.7K]

In conclusion, an experiment about Natural Selection includes mechanisms, explanation, estimation of the frequency of the trait and comparisons.

<h3>What is the scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is a series of step used to validate evidence and thus formulate theories.

Darwin used the scientific method to draw conclusions about the main mechanism of evolution, i.e., natural selection.

The scientific method involves making a question, providing an explanation of the hypothesis, making observations/experiments (which include experimental and control groups), and drawing conclusions.

The empirical data serve to test a hypothesis (either confirm or reject it) by contrasting its results with predictive outcomes.

The strength of the conclusions can be enhanced by using supporting evidence from other research fields (in this case, for example, the fossil record).

In conclusion, an experiment on Natural Selection includes mechanisms (question), explanation (hypothesis), estimation of the frequency of the trait in the population (prediction) and comparisons (control group).

_____ might be able to detect tumors based on its use of X-rays and ability to produce cross-sectional images of the brain.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: CAT (computerized axial tomography) scan

Explanation:

Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT) scan is an X-ray examination in which a computer generates images showing cross-section views of a patient's internal parts (brain, blood vessels and etc.)

CAT scan can identify normality and detect abnormalities (such as tumor and degenerated cells) in the internal organs and structures and hence, this information are used to guide other medical processes.

How many square centimeters are in an area of 8.50 inch^2
Paha777 [63]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

  Dimension = 8.5in²

we are to convert from in² to cm²

 in² = in x in

 cm² = cm x cm

   1 in = 2.54cm

Using dimensional analysis;

   8.5in² x \frac{2.54cm}{1in}  x \frac{2.54cm}{1in}

        =  54.84cm²

We solved this problem using dimensional analysis where we multiplied the unit with 1.

An aqueous solution has a mass of 490 grams containing 8.5 × 10-3 gram of calcium ions. The concentration of calcium ions in thi
Arada [10]
The concentration may be expressed as % m/m, this is the mass of ions in 100 mass units of solution, whose formula is:

% m/m = [mass of ions / mass of solution]*100

Then,

%m/m = [8.5*10^ -3 grams of calcium ions] / [490 grams of solution] * 100 =

% m/m = 1.74 * 10^ -5 %

Answer: 1.74 * 10 ^ -5 %
