Answer:

1. D. Evaporation

2. A. A closed lake has no outlet stream.

3. C. The angle of the slope

4. C. Granite

Explanation:

1. The process through which water changes its state from liquid to gaseous is known as evaporation. A source of energy is required for this process to occur, energy that is provided by solar heat in this case. The opposite process in which water changes state from gas to liquid, is known as condensation. Precipitation is the process in which the condensed water reaches the Earth’s surface under the force of gravity. During infiltration, water on the ground surface enters the soil.  

2. A closed lake is defined by the lack of any outflow. Thus, any water that does not evaporate, will remain in this type of lake indefinitely.

3. The only criterion not used to describe a mass movement event is the angle of the slope. For such an event, the type of motion is the most important characteristic together with the physical characteristics of the material.

4. Granite is a highly consolidated material and thus it has a very high integrity. The other materials listed have inferior characteristics.

5. Soil erosion is a displacement process that occurs naturally though the action of water and wind. On a steep slope, no soil formation occurs, because, due to gravity, all the eroded material will be transported to another location. Thus, at the slope’s location, no soil formation occurs.

Which of the following statements is FALSE regarding water intake and output by the body?
REY [17]

Answer:

The correct option is this: AN INCREASE IN FLUID TAKEN BY MOUTH WOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT PRODUCED BY METABOLISM.

Explanation:

Generally, the amount of water consumed by a person normally leads to increase in the amount of urine that the person will excrete, that is, the higher the quantity of water consumed, the higher the quantity of the urine that will be excreted under normal circumstances. Thus, the statement given in option B is false. The statements given in Option C and D are right; during exercise the quantity of sweat produce and lost by the body is higher than the one that is produced when one is not exercising. Also, diarrhea usually lead to loss of water from the body.

Describe 2 homologies (structures that were shared from a common ancestor) between the Zeuglodon and the Orca.
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Homologous structures can be described structures which originate in different organisms from a common ancestor and may or may not have the same functions.

Zeuglodons can be described as ancient whales and Orca is a common whale today known as the killer whale.

<u><em>Scientific studies show that Zeuglodans and Orca have many structures in common such as:</em></u>

  • <u><em>Having teeth with two roots</em></u>
  • <u><em>The presence of nostrils</em></u>
  • <u><em>Pelvis and internal femur bones</em></u>

A spinal-epidural, also called a(n) __________ epidural, is a system of administering continuous doses of anesthetic to a woman
Rudik [331]

The epidural anesthesia is a method of pain relief, which is used during the labor pain. It is a well known regional anesthesia. It works by acting as an analgesic, which means a substance that eases the pain, a complete anesthesia or loss of feeling does not occur in the case of epidural anesthesia. It blocks the nerve signals from the lower spinal segments. It is also known as spinal epidural anesthesia or lumbar epidural anesthesia.  

Hence, the black can be filled with lumbar.
