One of the mechanisms that help the body to conserve its heat is the slowing down of the blood flow towards the parts of the body exposed to cold temperatures. Another is to shiver when it is cold to keep the warmth of the body through movement.

The mechanisms that are used to help the body conserve heat are vasoconstriction and shivering. Vasoconstriction occurs when the blood vessels constrict causing the blood pressure to rise. Shivering occurs when the body becomes cold and it helps to maintain homeostasis.

Suppose Earth's gravitational force were decreased by half. How would this change affect a game of basketball? Write a paragraph
timama [110]
If the gravitational force were<span> decreased by half, there would be lack of gravity on earth. Hence, it would basically affect the velocity, speed, and the distance travelled in any direction by basketball players and the ball. The basketball would bounce higher and come down in a slower speed. Whereas for the players, they would be able to leap higher from the floor.</span><span> </span>

____________ was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The Apollo program or Project Apollo was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon and returning him to earth safely.

Explanation:

Project Apollo or Apollo program was the spaceflight program carried out by the United States of America during the years 1961-1972 using the Apollo spacecraft. This project's main goal was to land a man on the Moon and to safely return him to Earth. This goal was accomplished with the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission on July 20, 1969, when an Apollo Lunar Module (LM) landed on the Moon's surface and the astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the lunar surface while Michael Collins stayed in the command and service module (CSM) in the lunar orbit. On July 24, all three astronauts landed safely on Earth.

This project included three unmanned test flights (Apollo 4 through Apollo 6) and eleven manned flights (Apollo 7 through Apollo 17). All these spaceflight missions were carried out by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and all were launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
