What role do the winds and the oceans play in heat transfer around Earth?

1 answer:

6 0

wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earth’s surface is stored in the ocean. Thus, the absorption and movement of energy on the Earth is related to the ocean-atmosphere system.

El Nino and La Nina- La Nina is known for its unusually cold temperatures in the Equatoral Pacific. El Niño, is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the same region

The membrane has open K channels, and changing extracellular K concentration results in a change in membrane potential. Changing

MrRissso [65]

Answer: Closed

Explanation:

At resting membrane potential( RMP) sodium channels remained shut, this is because , previously in depolarisation,the voltage gated sodium channels were opened for sodium to diffuse into the Axon. However these channels closed after reaching their refractory period,s.

Therefore a change in the extracellular concentration of sodium will not open them

Ampicillin is a member of the penicillin family of antibiotics. what would happen to ampr bacterial strains if they were streake

artcher [175]

The amoxicillin and the ampicillin are known to degrade the cell wall. both of these antibiotics have β- lactam in their structure. The structure of the ampicillin and the amoxicillin is similar having a single difference at the 4th position of benzene ring. The structure of the amoxicillin have an addition OH or hydroxyl group at the 4th position in the benzene ring.

As the structure of ampicillin and amoxicillin is similar, the bacteria having ampicillin resistance can also show amoxicillin resistance.

MODE OF ACTION OF AMOXICILLIN:

The amoxicillin binds with the pencillin binding proteins, present in the bacterial cell wall. The binding of the amoxicillin inhibits the enzyme transpepetidase, which is an important enzyme for the synthesis of the cell wall. it also inhibit murine hydrolases and inhibit the assembling of cell wall.

The amoxicillin effects the cell walls of the bacteria, as the animals cells do not have cell wall, they only have a cell membrane, the increase in the dose would not effect the animal cell.

Sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides form from the burning of fossil fuels for energy. These gases combine with water in the atmosp

NikAS [45]

The answer is A. Decreased pH levels. A substance having a pH value less than seven is considered to be acidic. Increases in the concentration of these gases from the use of fossil fuels leads to more acid precipitation, lowering the pH of aquatic environments. Plant life and soil can also be affected by acid rain. Buildings and other infrastructure can be damaged.
