Geiger-Muller tube is instruments requires you test three times the background of the work area.

<u>Explanation</u>:

These detectors are gas filled detectors and hence requires time for responding to the value. This time is taken because during this period it collects the electric charges and features of the electric circuit. It also gets stabilized during this period. This device has thumb rule i.e one must wait or hold for at the least 3 times the time constant before getting the precise and accurate reading. The time constant order is 10 seconds for the ionization chamber but for the Geiger counter it can vary from seconds to greater than 20 seconds

In "simple columnar epithelium," which word describes cell shape and which word describes the number of cell layers?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:columnar describes cell shape.

Simple describe the number of layers

Explanation: epithelial tissues are one of the four major tissues of the body.the others being nervous, muscular, connective tissues.

Epithelial tissues are made up of thin cells that cover the external and internal surface of the body.

The cells may form one layer or more and they occur in several shapes.if they form one layer ,it is called simple.if they form several layers,it is called stratified.

Some are called pseudo-stratified because the cells occur with varying lengths and give the impression of stratified but they are actually made up of one layer.

Simple columnar epithelium is a single layer of tall, closely packed cells. They possess cellular extensions ,such as microvilli in the small intestine, or the cilia in the female reproductive tract.

From a population of red brown orange yellow and green butterflies only the red and green ones survive since they can blend into
Mnenie [13.5K]

The answer is natural selection.

In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. Red and green colors of butterflies increased the chance of their <span>survival and reproduction, so these traits will pass to the next generation.</span>

What boundaries create new oceanic crust?​
enyata [817]
ANSWER ( Convergent plate boundaries )

At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.
