Biology
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Both lithium and oxygen react to form an ionic bond between them. There is one Oxygen atom on the right side and 2 Oxygen atoms on the left, therefore coefficient 2 is added on right side to balance the oxygen atoms. 

Li + O2 --> 2 Li2O 

There will be 4 Lithium atoms on right side and 1 Lithium on the left therefore coefficient  4 is added to balance the lithium atoms

4 Li + O2 --> 2 Li2O 

The balanced equation is: 

4 Li + O2 --> 2 Li2O

Which statement regarding the hypothalamus is FALSE?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

All the options are correct regarding hypothalamus.

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is the part of the forebrain. The diencephalon is divisible into 2 parts - thalamus and hypothalamus. It regulates various functions of the body.

This is the thermoregulatory center of the body. It gives the signal to sweat during a hot environment and shiver in winter. This maintains the water balance in the body by stimulating the secretion of ADH hormone in the kidney.

Hypothalamus also has regulated anterior pituitary hormone secretion. Thus it controls the endocrine secretion of pituitary glands.

AysviL [449]

Since the question is incomplete, the answer will include the generalize ways that can be used to analyze evolutionary relatedness among gibbons, monkeys, and humans.

Answer:

The evolutionary relationship is important to understand the evolution of the organisms. The common ancestors and closely related species of the organisms can be known by study the evolutionary relationship of the organism.

The DNA sequence and the amino acid sequence of gibbons, monkeys, and humans are quite similar with each other. The gibbons and humans have more then 99% DNA sequence similarity. The physical characteristics, cranial capacity and anatomical characteristics of the gibbons, monkeys, and humans are more or less similar with each other.

How do some plants survive the intense desert heat and drought?
viva [34]

The correct answer is:

Plants close their stomata during times of intense heat or drought in order to prevent water loss and maintain homeostasis.

Explanation:

Guard cells tend to open stomata within the day when there are lots of day and close stomata at night when the sun is not present and photosynthesis is not happening. They will also close stomata if the air is dry or hot, which minimizes water waste indoors evaporation.
