Answer:

1. Another word for chemical weathering is b. disintegration

Chemical weathering is a process by which the rocks are broken down into parts and sediments by the action of a chemical agent such as alkali or acid. The disintegration can be a natural process by which a solid body is broken down into parts or subparts.

2. d. moving water is not an agent of chemical weathering agent.

The chemical weathering can be caused by the agents like lichens which secretes acid on the rock surface and causes it's disintegration, acid rain and salt water are chemical agents that can cause the disintegration of the rock but moving water will have little influence on the hard rock surface.

3. c. chemical weathering is a process which turns rocks and minerals into new substances. The chemical weathering process brings change in the chemical composition of the rocks due to the action of the weathering agents  hence, on disintegration of rocks new substances are formed.

All large radioactive atoms decay into smaller atoms by releasing alpha particles. Each alpha particle has 2 protons, 2 neutrons
nataly862011 [7]
All large radioactive atoms decay into smaller atoms by emitting alpha particles which consists of two protons and two neutrons. An alpha particle can also be thought of as the nucleus of a helium atom and as such they are sometimes referred to as He2+ . The positive charge is due to the lack of two electrons.

Si todas las células del organismo reaccionaran cómo lo hacen las del higado, se esperaría que ?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Si todas las células reaccionaran como el hígado, cada una tendría la capacidad de producir proteínas, colesterol, almacenamiento y liberación de glucosa, procesaría la producción de hemoglobina y amoníaco en la urea, purificaría las drogas y los desechos, regularía la coagulación, produciría los factores necesarios en la respuesta inmune e intervendría en la formación de bilirrubina, principalmente, sin embargo, debe tenerse en cuenta que una de las funciones principales es el suministro de energía, si cada célula tuviera reservas de glucosa por momentos de estrés, rápida regeneración celular ante las lesiones, las células no tendrían la capacidad de tener una adaptación específica de sus funciones y los procesos que son básicos para el funcionamiento humano serían destruidos, como un eritrocito cuya función es el transporte de oxígeno, no lo haría ser viable si se dedica a producir glucosa porque su estructura debería adaptarse a otra y sin oxígeno el cuerpo no vive, por lo que sería caótico que los sistemas sí no tienen una adaptación específica y son las mismas, aunque las reacciones hepáticas son vitales, requiere el apoyo de otros órganos con diferentes funciones para que estas tengan lugar, es de resaltar que el hígado tiene una respuesta rápida y efectiva ante el estrés, busca recursos para poder mantener funcionando muchos sistemas, si las células se adaptarán con la misma rapidez, se evitaría la aparición de muchas enfermedades.
