Why did comets form in the Kuiper belt and not in the asteroid belt

Biology
2 answers:
Zolol [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Asteroids lie in the asteroid belt and comets lie in the Kuiper belt beyond the orbit of Neptune. The composition of asteroids and comets is different.

Comets are composed of rocks, dust, ice and frozen gases. These are thought  to be formed from the debris of the solar system.

On the other hand, asteroids are irregular shape and size rocky bodies lying between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter. There are thought be remnants of a planet which could not form.

Comets formed in the Kuiper belt because of very low temperature and what they are composed of.

The kuiper belt is colder so water vapor can turn in to ice but the the astoriod belt it is hotter

givi [52]

The nurse should explain the newly diagnosed lung cancer client that the reason why his tumor metastasized so fast without displaying many signs/symptoms is that: the malignant tumors affect area tissues by releasing enzymes and toxins that make the other normal cells to differentiate uncontrollably.

Metastasis is the property of spreading of cancer cells. When the tumor at a location in the body starts spreading top other locations as well, it is said to be metastasizing.

Malignant tumors are those that metastasize. They travel to near or distant locations at the body and start dividing. These are cancerous in nature.

The ATP molecule can be considered a form of chemical energy because?
Wittaler [7]

Answer: The correct answer is A) It stores the energy from the glucose in the bonds between the phosphate groups.

ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) is considered as a form of chemical energy as the energy is stored in the high energy phosphoanhydride bonds, which are present between phosphate.

Whenever a body requires energy, glucose is metabolized and produces ATP. The energy from glucose molecule is stored in the ATP.

When ATP is hydrolyzed, it is converted into ADP ( adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate and the large amount of energy is released.

What some limitations found in photosynthesis experiment with the use of dicotyledous leaf ?​
PolarNik [594]
Answer:

The history of net photosynthesis and transpiration per unit leaf area was determined for intact soybean leaves from their unfolding to senescence during flowering and pod filling on untreated (podded) and partially depodded plants growing in a glasshouse. Leaf diffusive resistances to CO2 were calculated and a water use efficiency parameter was derived (net mass of carbon dioxide fixed per unit mass of water transpired per millibar vapour pressure deficit). Net photosynthesis and transpiration behaved similarly through all stages of leaf development. A number of peaks were evident in these parameters. The first was associated with leaf expansion and occurred when the leaf reached its maximum area. The second peak coincided with flowering of the plant and later peaks occurred during pod filling. Stomatal and mesophyll resistances also exhibited similar behaviour during the life of the leaf; the possible causes of this linkage are discussed. Water use efficiency increased rapidly up to the time of full lamina expansion. Thereafter, it rose slowly or remained stable until leaf senescence approached, when the efficiency declined. Net photosynthesis and transpiration of leaves were very similar in both podded and partially depodded plants. It appears that to prevent a shortage of assimilate during flowering and pod filling, photosynthesis may be maintained or increased in some leaves and the response is not related to the number of pods available for filling. The increases in photosynthesis were correlated with both higher stomatal and mesophyll conductances. Mechanisms by which the plant may control leaf photosynthesis are discussed.
