Based on illustrations of magnetic field lines, where could an object be placed so it would not experience a magnetic
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Most of us have some familiarity with everyday magnetic objects and recognize that there can be forces between them. We understand that magnets have two poles and that depending on the orientation of two magnets there can be attraction (opposite poles) or repulsion (similar poles). We recognize that there is some region extending around a magnet where this happens. The magnetic field describes this region.

There are two different ways that a magnetic field is typically illustrated:

The magnetic field is described mathematically as a vector field. This vector field can be plotted directly as a set of many vectors drawn on a grid. Each vector points in the direction that a compass would point and has length dependent on the strength of the magnetic force.  Arranging many small compasses in a grid pattern and placing the grid in a magnetic field illustrates this technique. The only difference here is that a compass doesn't indicate the strength of a field.

I hope it helps.

GaryK [48]
Little sunlight reaches that floor of caniferous forest because trees grow in dense stands. trees in caniferous forests grow close to each other and grow very tall forming canopies with their branches. canopies act like and umbrella that shields the sunlight from reaching on the floor of the forest. as a result insufficient sunlight there is little or no growth of vegetation at the floor of the forest. the areas where caniferous forest are found receive high amount of rainfall and this is what encourages the thick growth of trees.

You need to determine if a pure culture of bacteria is gram-positive or gram-negative, but you've just spilled your only solutio
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Gram positive bacteria will be lysed whereas gram negative bacteria will be unaffected.

Explanation:

  • Lysozyme treatment degrades bacterial cell wall. It destroys the peptidoglycan cell wall by hydrolyzing the glycosidic bond between NAM and NAG sugar residues present in the cell wall.
  • Gram positive bacteria has a thick peptidoglycan cell wall with only a thin outer layer of techoic acid. So when exposed to lysozyme, the peptidoglycan layer disintegrates and forms debris.
  • Gram negative bacteria has a thin peptidoglycan cell wall and a tough outer membrane. The outer membrane does not allow the lysozyme to come in contact with the cell wall keeping it intact.
  • Hence, Gram positive bacteria will be lysed whereas gram negative bacteria will be unaffected by lysozyme treatment.
