How do human wingspans compare to albatross wingspans

Biology
1 answer:
Talja [164]3 years ago
4 0

Human wingspans are much smaller than those of albatross. That is, the ration of wingspan to height for humans is around 1.0, whereas for albatross it is closer to 3.0. ... Albatross fly thousands of miles each year. They use their long wings to soar on wind currents over the ocean.

What term describes the rising and sinking of the lithosphere as material is added or removed?
Margaret [11]
<span>Composition. (We use the crust-mantle-core terminology to describe differences in chemical composition in Earth's interior. We use the lithosphere- asthenosphere terminology to describe differences the physical state and behavior. Note that the boundaries between layers with different compositions do not occur at the same depths as the boundaries between layers with different physical properties. For example, there is a change in composition when passing from crust into mantle. But there is no change in physical state or behavior at this boundary- the uppermost part of the mantle behaves in the same way that the crust does because it is still far enough below its melting temperature to be a rigid, brittle solid. The transition to a softer, more pliable solid occurs further down within the mantle and this change in behavior occurs with no change in composition.)</span>

Think about an academic subject (biology) that inspires you. describe how you have furthered this interest inside and/or outside
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Biology is the study of Living organisms whereby they are clustered into distribution , origin , behavior , anatomy their physiology and morphology.

Biology as a subject has changed my views and conspiracies about the existence of organisms in their ecosystem .Its like from biology you get to know the meaning of life in details right from the origin to death of the organism .

As a human being I have realized much on how biology helps even beyond the class , since I have learnt the reason why each organism belongs to a certain habitat and specific niche of the ecosystem , I have learnt to respect and conserve such organisms as they deserve to exist in that habitat , and their is an interdependency whether direct or indirect .

Also with the knowledge I have acquired on anatomy and the physiology of organisms , I can do  a first aid to an individual who has suffered outdoor pass outs or injuries to reduce the impact of the situation before he or she reaches the hospital .

I believe biology has impacted a very important part of my life and I look forward to take further studies in this field to broaden my knowledge even more .

Which macromolecule forms a double layer as the primary structure of cell membranes?
OlgaM077 [116]
Answer;
Phospholipid.

Phospholipid forms a double layer as the primary structure of cell membranes.

Explanation; 
Cell membranes contains of lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol), proteins and carbohydrates groups that are attached to some of the lipids and proteins. 
Phospholipids are composed of a polar head and non-polar (hydrophobic) tail. They line up such that the heads and the tail groups are side by side to form a single layer due to the interactions between the head groups and the tail groups. Two of these layers line up with the hydrophobic tail groups facing each other to prevent the hydrophobic groups away from the polar head groups of other phospholipids and from the water in the surrounding environment.
