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

slega [8]
The correct option is this: HAS THE CLAIM BEEN TESTED NUMEROUS TIMES BY MORE THAN ONE SCIENTISTS.
For a claim to be accepted has been valid in the science world, it must have been tested several times by many scientists who obtain the same results. Having a uniform result about a phenomenon is usually considered an important factor when examining the validity of a claim.

Where simple sugars are broken down into carbon dioxide, water vapor and atp ogranelle?
aleksklad [387]

Answer: Mitochondria

Explanation: Mitochondria is an organelle responsible for cellular respiration which is the break down of Simple sugars into carbon dioxide,water,ATP( adenosine trisphosphate).

It has a double membrane,known as the power House of the cells found in the cytoplasm of most Eukaryotic organisms.The number of Mitochondria found in an organism varies according to the Oxygen requirements of that organism. In human liver contains about 2000 Mitochondria,the Red blood cells do not contain Mitochondria.
