8 0

Answer:

1 . base of brain : A. pituitary

2 . located on kidneys : C. adrenal

3 . located in the neck : D. thyroid

4 . associated with the small intestine : B. pancreas

Explanation:

Hypothalamus is present below the thalamus of the brain. The pituitary gland is present at the base of the brain in the hypophyseal fossa. Adrenal glands are the paired glands. One adrenal gland lies superior to each kidney in the retroperitoneal space.

The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland and is located just inferior to the larynx in the neck. The right and left lateral lobes of this gland are present on either side of the trachea. The pancreas is usually connected to the duodenum of the small intestine by two ducts. This arrangement releases the pancreatic juice into the small intestine.

Bauxite is an ore that is mined extensively. What makes bauxite a valuable ore?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Bauxite is the most common aluminum ore. Approximately 98% of primary aluminum production is based on bauxite. In the former Soviet Union, aluinite and kaolinite are also used in small proportions for aluminum production. Bauxite is a naturally occurring, heterogeneous material composed primarily of one or more aluminum hydroxide minerals plus various mixtures of silica, iron oxide, titania, and other impurities in trace amounts. The principal aluminum hydroxide minerals found in varying proportions within bauxite are gibbsite (trihydrated) and boehmite and diaspore (both monohydrated). The content of aluminum oxide is 30–60%. Bauxite is generally extracted by open cast mining from strata, typically 4–6 m thick under a shallow covering of topsoil and vegetation (Table I).

Calculate the efficiency of a hair dryer which takes in 3000J of energy per second and transfers 600J as useful heat energy. Cal
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The efficiency of the hair dryer is 0.2 or 20%

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine or any appliance is a measure of the useful work done by the machine when an effort is applied to the machine. The higher the efficiency of a machine, the more useful work the machine does.

Due to the economical and environmental impact of energy production, machines and appliances of high efficiency are being developed and recommended for domestic as well as industrial use nowadays.

In electrical appliances, energy is usually supplied by electrical power units. The higher the efficiency of an electrical appliance, the less power it consumes to do useful work. For a hair dryer which takes in 3000 J of energy per second and transfers 600 J of useful heat energy, its efficiency is calculated with formula below:

efficiency = useful energy / total energy input

Efficiency = 600 J / 3000 J = 0.2

Therefore, the efficiency of the hair dryer is 0.2 or 20%
