What factors influence ocean current ?

Biology
2 answers:
Flura [38]3 years ago

Answer:

  • Tides. Caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and moon on Earth's oceans.
  • Wind. Wind pushes the water along the surface to form wind-driven currents. (coriolis effect)
  • Thermohaline circulation. The differences in temperature and salinity, or salt content in water play a part in the ocean currents. (water density)

<em>Hope this helps!!!</em>

CFU Question 1:<br> What is the relationship between the structure<br> and enzymatic function?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Most enzymes are proteins and therefore their function is specific to their structure. Enzymes function as a catalyst to increase the rate of virtually all the chemical reactions that take place in a living system.

Which of the following explains why water is a good solvent for polar and ionic compounds?
Anni [7]

Hi there!

<u>Electronegativity</u> is the concept of how likely an atom is to attract the shared molecules in one of these bonds to itself. We know the molecule water is made up of two hydrogens and one oxygen. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2, and oxygen 3.4. An <u>ionic bond</u> needs at least a difference in electronegativity of 1.6. As the difference is less than that, we can say that water is a covalent molecule. This then wipes out choice B, because it is not ionic, and C, as we have seen it is actually covalent.

Now, we can see the difference in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen is still 1.2. This means that while it is not at the point for there to be an ionic bond, there is still a difference in attraction, where the electrons will tend to favor the oxygen more and 'hang around it' more. As electrons are <u>negatively charged</u><em><u>,</u></em> this means that the oxygen will gain a slightly negative charge. This then makes the molecule polar, because it now has a charge within the molecule. This means we have our answer, choice D.

In terms of hydrophobic molecules - they tend to be ones without a charge. (If you're interested in this kind of stuff, I'd search hydrophobic up, and possibly also look into hydrogen bonds).

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask me any other questions you have about this specific problem.
