Answer: A.) sensor

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the ability of the organism's inner body to regulate the internal environment in stable state with respect to the changes occurring in the external environment. It is usually done by the feedback controls.  

The maintenance of homeostasis within the body is essential. The following are the factors which controls the homeostasis. These includes:

1. Stimulus: It generate a response. It is an external factor which brings change in the internal body of the organism.

2. Receptor/ sensor: It detects the external stimulus and responds to the change.

3. Control center: The information from the receptor travels along the afferent pathway towards the control center. The function of the control center is to determine the response and controls the action.

4. Effector: The information from the control center travels down the efferent pathway to the effector. The function of the effector is to balance the stimulus to regulate and maintain homeostasis.

lesya [120]

Answer:

Kinetic Energy = 0

Explanation:

No matter if energy is totally conserved during the fall or when it hits the ground, the kinetic energy of the silver sphere will be zero because the velocity component in K.E = 1/2mv^{2} becomes zero, the over all energy becomes zero.

At the bottom of a large cylindrical tank filled with fresh water the gauge pressure is 11.6 psi. What is the height (in feet) o
Art [367]

Answer:

8.19m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Pressure, P= 11.6 psi = 79979.185 Pa

Gauge pressure is given as:

P = h*d*g

=> h = P/(d*g)

Where

h = height of tank

d = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

Density of water = 997 kg/m³

Therefore, the height of the tank is:

h = 79979.185/(997 * 9.8)

h = 8.19m

Answer:

4) Isaac Newton was the first scientist to propose the idea that gravity increases distance between objects decrease

Explanation:

1 - Kepler may have inspired most of Newton's propositions, but there is no record of collaborating on the theory of universal gravitation.

2 - The universal gravitation theory resemble the works of other great scientists, but Newton was indeed the first to propose this idea of gravitation

3 - On the contrary, these scientists have shared concepts, with differences in accuracy that supersede each other to be accepted by the community (i.e: Einstein being at the forefront despite sharing some ideas with Newton)
