Ductility is a physical property.

A physical property of a material is a property that can be measured or observed without changing the composition of the material.

In this case ductility is a physical property. It is defined as the property of a material associated with the ability to be drawn or stretched into a wire without breaking. The chemical identity of the material is not affected, that is it does not change.

Example of ductile materials include gold, silver, copper, erbium, terbium and samarium.

Other examples of physical properties are:

1. Solubility

2. Melting point.

3. Boiling point.

4. Color

5. Density.

Answer:

Ductility is a physical property of matter, as it can be measured or observed without the substance undergoing a chemical change. Ductility is the ability of a solid material to stretch under tensile stress, for example when a metal is stretched into a wire. The chemical nature of the metal isn't changed in this case. When you're trying to distinguish between chemical and physical properties, keep in mind that chemical properties are generally only observable when a material undergoes a chemical change. Examples of chemical properties are flammability, tendency to corrode and reactivity with a particular class of chemicals. A chemical property of most metals is that they react with acids. Some examples of physical properties, which don't involve chemical change, are melting and boiling points, density and color.

Question 1

Levart [38]

<span>Question 1
Science can be described as a body of knowledge that is

gained by a process of experimentation and investigation --> TRUE
proven to be true by scientists around the world.---> FALSE, BECAUSE EXPERIMENTATION AND THEORIES LEAD TO TEMPORAL TRUES, WHICH MAY BE PROVEN TO BE FALSE, BUT WHAT IS BELIEVED TO BE TRUE TODAY MAY NOT BE TRUE TOMORROW

never changed once it is proven and supported by experimentation.---> FALSE AS EXPLAINED ABOVE

used to measure the value of philosophy, art, and religion. FALSE, SCIENCE'S OBJECTS ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM PHILOSOPHY, ART AND RELIGION'S OBJECTS.

Question 2
All of the following are true about science except
It is a body of knowledge.---> TRUE
It does not change once a law is discovered.--> FALSE (I EXPLAINED THIS ABOVE)

It is tested by many scientists over time.--> TRUE
It uses the scientific method.--> TRUE

Question 3
Which of the following could be considered a scientific statement?
Pizza is the best food on Earth.--> FALSE. IT CAN NOT BE TESTED
I believe in life on other planets.--> FALSE. IT IS A BELIEF
It appears that ants live in colonies.---> RIGHT, BECAUSE YOU CAN OBSERVE THIS AND TEST.
I think nuclear energy is bad. ---> FALSE. IT IS AN OPINION.

Question 4
Which question can be answered using the scientific method?
What is the meaning of life?
Do red or orange flowers attract more butterflies?--> RIGHT. YOU CAN DESIGN AN EXPERIMENT TO TEST THIS.
Do roses smell better than lilies?
Are alien spacecrafts powered by gasoline?

Question 5
It would not be practical to use scientific experimentation to test the effect of
tempo on the quality of music.--> THIS ONE BECAUSE YOU CANNOT MEASURE THE QUALITY OF MUSIC
color on brain waves and function
adrenaline on the mating behaviors of animals.
pH on the color of flowers</span>

dynamic modeling of alpha-synuclein aggregation for the sporadic and genetic forms of parkinson's disease

Triss [41]

Numerous degenerative neurological conditions, most notably Parkinson's disease, have been linked to an excessive buildup of alpha synuclein (a-syn) in the brain. Intraneuronal inclusions, often known as Lewy bodies, are neuropathological characteristics seen in Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, and other synucleopathies. The aggregation of a-syn is their main structural component. A-syn accumulation, aggregation, and ensuing Lewy body formation can be attributed to a variety of biological processes. These include genetic changes in parkin, synuclein, or the deubiquitinating enzyme ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase (UCH-L1), which results in less efficient removal of a-syn via the ubiquitin proteasomal pathway (UPP). Additionally, environmental variables and an age-related decline in antioxidant defense mechanisms that heighten oxidative stress and can have an impact on the formation or clearance of a-syn are intracellular insults.

We focused on changes in the aggregation and clearance of a-syn as impacted by the UPP and the oxidative stress pathways in our dynamic models of a-syn processing in both normal and various disease states. A free radical profile similar to that observed in vivo after exposure to the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine is produced during simulation of enhanced oxidative stress (MPTP). To replicate the kinetics of a-syn that correlates to the neuropathology reported for the sporadic and hereditary types of Parkinson's disease, different model parameters of oxidative stress, UPP failure, or both routes are used. With the use of this in silico model, it is possible to evaluate the kinetics of pathway elements and more accurately identify and validate key pharmaceutical targets.

what function does the limb serve in each animal? How are the limb bones of the four animals similar? Based on these similaritie

e-lub [12.9K]

The function of the limb is to help them get around and move. They might be similar in the way they’re structured? I don’t have a picture so I can’t tell. And you can assume that at one point these four animals all shared a common ancestor. Hope I helped!
