Why can we see our reflection in a mirror but not in a sheet of paper?

<span>When light hits a mirror, all of it is reflected, none is absorbed, and none passes through. However, when a light hits a piece of paper, all of it is absorbed except for the white-colored light. Since the white-color is reflected, the paper will seem as if it's white. And since the mirror reflects all light, it will look like whatever lightwaves that are hitting it</span>

List in order the various fluid compartments that a glucose molecule would encounter beginning with absorption from the lumen of
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The correct list of compartments glucose enter is :

The lumen > plasma (extracellular fluid) > interstitial fluid (extracellular fluid) >   the skeletal muscle cell (intracellular fluid)

Explanation:

The glucose molecule would start from the lumen of the intestine where is absorbed. The glucose enters the plasma a part of the circulatory system known as extracellular fluid.

The glucose also encounters another type of extracellular fluid the interstitial fluid that is not in the circulatory system. At the last glucose as it is entering the skeletal muscle cell the last fluid compartment, which is intracellular fluid. This fluid is inside the cells.

Explain the phases of the moon. what are the periods of rotation and revolution?
cluponka [151]

The Moon is the natural satellite of Earth. Its revolution lasts 27.322 days, while its rotation around its axis lasts 27 days. From the Earth's perspective, the Moon seems to have different phases, where it appears as fully lighted, partially lighted, or totally dark. What the Moon appears to be from the Earth depends on how the Earth, Moon, and Sun are aligned in relation to each other. If the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, the Moon is full, with the reason being that the Sun is lighting up the side that is facing the Earth. If the Moon is between the Earth and Sun, then the Moon can not be seen, it is totally dark, and that is because the side that is facing the Earth is not lighted by the Sun at all. If the Moon is positioned sideways, not being in a straight line with the Earth and Sun, then it appears to be partially lighted, and that is the side that can be seen from Earth that is lighted by the Sun.

The wall of the left ventricle is thicker than that of the right and the left ventricle pumps more blood than the right. Are the
Rus_ich [418]

The wall of the left ventricle is thicker than that of the right - True

The left ventricle pumps more blood than the right - False

<u>Explanation:</u>

Heart has 4 number of chambers. One among these chambers is the left ventricle. Among the four cambers of the heart, the thick one is the left ventricle. It appears below the left atrium. The left ventricle is present in the bottom left part of the heart. When the contraction of heart occurs the blood from the valve called mitral enters the left atrium from the left atrium.  

The left ventricle transports the oxygenated blood to the human body. The left ventricle needs along these things for pumping the blood. The right ventricle can function by itself and is more powerful than left ventricle. The right ventricle is responsible in pumping blood to the lungs on its own.

Why is e = hv important in pv cell considerations?
Zanzabum
E=hv is an equation important when dealing with light. E refers to the energy of a photon; h is Planck's constant and v is the wavelength. According to this equation, light particles called photons travels in packets of energy. This is important in pv cells because this is the technology used to harness solar energy which is converted to electricity. The amount of energy should be estimated to know the appropriate material of construction of the pv cell to achieve optimum conditions. In this way, the pv cell could maximize the sun's energy.

Carbon is a fundamental element of all living things. Carbon atoms move continiously through living organisms (biosphere), the s
Ad libitum [116K]
Worldwide circulation and reutilization of carbon atoms, chiefly due to metabolic processes of living organisms. Inorganic carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, is incorporated into organic compounds by photosynthetic organisms; when the organic compounds are broken down in respiration, carbon dioxide is released. Large quantities of carbon are "stored" in the seas and the atmosphere, as well as in fossil fuel deposits.
