Answer:

Heat energy

Explanation:

Energy is the ability to do work or perform a task. Energy exists in different forms depending on the source. As mentioned in the question, the moving car uses kinetic energy, which is a type of mechanical energy an object possesses in motion.

However, when the driver of the car applies the brakes, friction is produced between the tyres of the car and the ground in order to stop the car. Friction is a force that opposes two objects in motion. When friction is applied, heat is produced. Hence, when the moving car stops due to the friction produces, heat is released in the process.

Therefore, it can be said that the mechanical energy (kinetic energy) of that car was converted to heat energy when it stopped as a result of friction.

Which part of the brain is associated with conscious thought
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Cerebral cortex of the Cerebrum

Explanation:

The body directs our body's internal functions. These functions are made possible by four major regions of the brain viz: The Cerebrum, Diencephalon, Cerebellum and Brain stem.

The Cerebrum is the largest brain structure, making up most of the total brain, and a part of the forebrain. The cerebrum's prominent outer portion, the cerebral cortex, not only processes sensory and motor information but also enables CONSCIOUSNESS (our ability to consider ourselves and the outside world), thoughts, emotion, reasoning and memory.

The cerebral cortex is composed of the right and left hemispheres joined by the corpus callosum. Each cerebral hemisphere can be subdivided into four lobes (Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, and Occipital) associated with different functions.

Enzymes are used in moving sections of DNA that code for insulin from the pancreas cells of humans into a certain type of bacter
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Human insulin

Explanation:

The process where by region of a DNA that codes for a particular function is transferred between organisms into cells Is described as gene transfer. This process can be used to enhance the mechanism of producing a gene that is not originally present in such organisms before. Therefore if the gene that code for insulin is inserted into a bacterial vector , the offspring of such bacteria will be able to synthesize insulin in their cell
