A) Metalloids exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metalloids relates to metals and non-metals in that they exhibit properties of both metals and non-metals.

Their properties straddles between those of metals and non-metals.

On the periodic table of elements they are found in between metals and non-metals.
The can be conductors of electricity or not. Certain conditions permits them to conduct electricity.
They can be shiny or dull
They can be malleable or not.
They conduct heat but not as readily as metals.

The movement of water on earth surface does bot change very much true or false

White raven [17]

Answer:

I think that it's false

Explanation:

The reason is because there is a thing called a 'Water Cycle'. It is basically the continuous movement of water on the surface of the Earth.

24. Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways

<em>Negative feedbacks</em>
<em>Positive feedbacks</em>

Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat

Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.

1. What are the independent and dependent variables in each of the experiments?

Dafna1 [17]

The independent variables are temperature, airflow, and light and the dependent variable in each of the experiments is evaporation.
The schematic representation in the diagram helps in the understanding of the setup for the experiments.
The level of temperature, the rate of airflow, and the intensity of light must be controlled in the experiments.
A person will not be confident in experiment 3 results as the temperature is the independent variable that alters the results of evaporation.

<h3>What are the four foremost factors of a managed test?</h3>

When possible, scientists take a look at their hypotheses through the use of managed experiments. A managed test is a systematic take look at executed below-managed conditions, which means that simply one (or a few) elements are modified at a time, even as all others are saved consistently. We'll appear carefully at managed experiments within side the subsequent section.

In the three experiments, the dependent variable is evaporation, as it changes with the change in another variable.

The independent variable in experiment 1 is temperature, experiment 2 is airflow, and experiment 3 is light.

The experiment can be understood better with the representation of the schematic that shows the setup to analyze how the experiment was performed. Therefore the diagram must add the schematic of the experiment.

The controlled items in the experiment are the variables that are set at the particular unit to form the result. the controlled item in experiment 1 is temperature, experiment 2 is airflow from the fan, and experiment 3 is the intensity of light.

The result of experiment 3 is based on the dependence on the intensity of light keeping temperature constant and controlled. If the temperature is not controlled in the experiment then it may lead to an alteration in the results as it depends on both light and temperature.

The flow chart for the increase in pressure affecting the evaporation is given in the image attached.
