Answer:

Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering.

 

Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away. No rock on Earth is hard enough to resist the forces of weathering and erosion. Together, these processes carved landmarks such as the Grand Canyon, in the U.S. state of Arizona. This massive canyon is 446 kilometers (277 miles) long, as much as 29 kilometers (18 miles) wide, and 1,600 meters (1 mile) deep.

 

Weathering and erosion constantly change the rocky landscape of Earth.

  "In the early days of germ theory, contagious diseases were thought to be caused by fungi or bacteria. In the 1890's, Dmitri Ivanovski filtered extracts from diseased tobacco plants and discovered that the disease could be transmitted to new plants through the filtrate. He concluded that the disease was caused by particles smaller than bacteria; the tobacco mosaic virus", is partially correct. Dmitri Ivanovski discovered that filtered extracts from diseased tobacco plants could be transmitted to new plants through the filtrate. However, it was Dutch microbiologist Martinus Beijerinck who, while replicating Ivanovsky's experiments, proved that the filtrate contained a new infectious agent. Beijerinck named this agent a virus.

Neurons have special proteins in their cell membranes that allow them to generate electric current. Are these proteins most like
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Sodium-Potassium pumps (proteins that help neurons generate electricity) are produced by ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Explanation:

Sodium-Potassium Pump (NA+/K+):

The Na+/K+ Pump is a transmembrane channel protein, responsible for maintaining the concentration gradient of sodium and potassium ions in the intra and extracellular environment. This is achieve by pumping 3 Na+ outside and 2 K+ inside the cell at the cost of one ATP. In neurons, these channels help in generating an action potential across the cell membrane that gives rise to a nerve impulse.

Production of Transmembrane proteins:

All membranes and their proteins are produced by  the ribosomes on the rough ER. The rough endoplasmic reticulum contains the enzymes required for lipid synthesis; and as cell membranes are made of lipids, the ER is the most suitable location for synthesis. Membrane proteins, particularly, transmembrane proteins like the Na+/K+ pump possess hydrophobic surfaces that don't dissolve in the cytoplasm but readily attach to the ER surface from where they can be transported wherever required.

algol [13]

Answer:

A. Adaptation

Explanation:

Adaptation refers to the evolutionary process in which organisms undergo mutation or genetic change over many generations, which makes the organisms become better suited to multiply and survive in its habitat. The genetic mutation of Daphnia which makes them develop a trait that makes subsequent generations to prefer warmer environments is an example of adaptation of the organism to his environment.

Victor put a match on a balance and found that its mass was 6.0 grams. Then he lit the match and put it out after a few seconds.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: It releases oxygen and heat. The answer is C

Stored inside the match head is another chemical called “potassium chlorate”. When it gets hot, it releases a lot of extra oxygen and heat. This makes the match head burn quickly and strongly. When you put it all together the heat, the fuel, and the oxygen  you get a flame. Matter does not go when something is set on fire. Matter is always the same.  Burning is a chemical process. The flames are caused as a result of a fuel undergoing combustion (burning). (CC BY-SA 2.5; Einar Helland Berger for fire and Walter Siegmund for ash).
