The major difference is that plants use vacuoles to store excess amounts of water, while animal cells do not. A plant standing up straight compared to a plant wilting over is a result of water capacity in the vacuoles
10^7 would be 69000000. You do this by moving the decimal by the number of powers on the 10.
Answer:
C. 5.45 × 10^3 kg
Explanation:
Scientific notation is a way of writing large or small numbers in a decimal form also called exponential form i.e. expressed in terms of power of tens.
This simple method can ve followed when converting a number to scientific notation. We say; a × 10^x
a is the decimal number expressed in the power of tens
x is power of ten
According to the question, a male African elephant weighs 5450 kg.
To convert 5450 to scientific notation, we first of all move the decimal points to the left until we have only one number leftward
N.B: the decision point in any whole number is in front of the last number going rightwards.
We have, 5450 = 5.450
Next, we count how many times the decimal point was moved leftwards. In this case, it was moved three (3) times. Hence, the power of ten (x) is 3.
Because we moved leftwards, the power of ten will be a positive number. We have;
5.450 × 10^3 kg.
