Answer:

Option A, B, C

Explanation:

A wave’s highest part is called crest and the lowest part is called trough. The vertical length between the highest and lowest part of wave i.e crest and trough is called wave height. Hence option A is correct. Steepness of waves is defined as the ratio of height of wave to its length i.e wavelength. Hence option b is correct

And the steepness of wave should never exceed the ratio of \frac{1}{7} , if ration exceeds \frac{1}{7}  the wave gets steep and finally breaks down

 

Hence, Option A, B, C  are correct

Answer: Option A,B and C.

Explanation:

A wave is a physical phenomenon that is described as disturbance of one or more field that travels through a medium, transporting energy from a location to the other without transporting matter.

Wave height is the vertical distance from crest to trough.

Wave steepness=wave height ÷ wave length.

If a wave steepness ever exceeds a 1 to 7 ratio, the wave breaks

Identify the fungus type pictured below.
MatroZZZ [7]
That would be ascomycota or sac fungi. Sac fungi are characteristically known for producing ascus. This is a sac-like structure that contains haploid spores called ascospores. Some examples of sac fungi are yeast, truffles, morels and dead man's fingers.

Which base is normally used in the synthesis (making) of RNA but not in the synthesis (making) of DNA?
fiasKO [112]

The correct answer is uracil.

<span>Uracil is one of the pyrimidine nucleotide bases which is the component of nucleic acid-RNA. In RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds (complementary binding). Uracil is not found in DNA, it is replaced by thymine because it is thymine’s demethylated form.</span>

How will when the ice melts and the animals begin to thaw affect the amount of co2 in the atmosphere
klio [65]

Answer:

The process of decomposition increases the amount of carbondioxide gas in the atmosphere.

The process of decomposition greatly affect the amount of carbondioxide in the atmosphere because in the process of decomposition, carbondioxide is released in the atmosphere which is added to the carbondioxide present in the atmosphere.

This results in more warm temperature of the earth atmosphere so we can conclude that the process of decomposition increases the amount of carbondioxide gas in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

I hope this helps you!!!.....
