<span>Fatty acids are fats that have acidic carboxyl groups on them. Something like CH3-(CH2)n-COOH Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds between 1 or more of the carbons in the chain. They are unsaturated with hydrogen, but can be hydrogenated chemically. Fatty acids have many roles, but a very common one is to form the lipids in membranes. In that case two fatty acids are usually joined to phosphate plus some other chemical groups.</span>

Fudgin [204]

Yearly rainfall-12–30 inches; mild summers, cold winters are considered as weather conditions.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To understand the basic difference between the weather condition and climate let’s look into the basic difference. Weather condition is the condition that is been experienced whereas the climate is a condition that is expected to be happening for a long period of time.

Here mild summer and cold winners are the weather condition of that place.  Climate will be the average weather of that particular region. While weather is the condition observed during that particular period climate is the condition observed for years together.

Charra [1.4K]
The answer is Event 1. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between the sun and Earth and blocks the sunlight from reaching Earth's surface during daytime, thus casting a shadow over Earth. A lunar eclipse as represented by Event 2 happens when the moon passes into the shadow of Earth at night and we can see the moon darken.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Breathing rate is most likely to increase if the blood level of carbon dioxide increase.

Explanation:

Breathing rate is the number of breaths of a person during a specific time, is usually the number of respiratory cycles that occur per minute. External respiration is the process of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide from the outside of the human body to pulmonary capillary blood. Once in the lungs, oxygen (and carbon dioxide to a very small extent) through the alveoli, pass into the red blood cells of the pulmonary vein blood. Carbon dioxide reacts in the blood with water, thanks to an enzyme, giving rise to bicarbonate. Blood reaches the heart, and is pumped into the cells by systemic arteries. The oxygen in the blood crosses the cell membrane and in turn, an exchange occurs, since the cell expels carbon dioxide and oxygen that it has not used. Once the exchange is done, the blood is conducted through the systematic veins with oxygen whose partial pressure is lower, and with an increase in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide. It reaches the heart again, leads through the right atrium and ventricle and finally travels through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where the air is expelled (expiration). Breathing rate tends to increase when the level of carbon dioxide in the blood increase.
