Answer:

A. Both waves carry energy and refract

Explanation:

There are two major types of waves viz; mechanical waves and electromagnetic eaves. Mechanical waves such as sound waves are waves that require a medium or matter to pass/travel through while electromagnetic waves like light waves do not strictly require a medium to travel i.e through vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves i.e their particles move perpendicularly to the direction of the wave while mechanical waves can either be transverse or longitudinal. All waves carry energy from one medium to another and are capable of refraction i.e. change of direction.

Therefore, both mechanical and electromagnetic waves carry energy and refract.

IM BEGGING YALL ANSWER Explain how the surface area and volume of cells affect the rate of exchange of materials in and out of c
Charra [1.4K]

Cells need to be small in order to make exchanging materials faster. This is because, as the size of the cell increases (if we were to increase the size), then the volume increases faster than the surface area. We want more surface area, so this isn't effective if we increase the size. The larger the size also means that it takes more energy for them to move, so there will need to be more cytoplasm, and that's too much effort to generate. Imagine being in math class when you use those cubes, the one huge cube assembles 100 small cubes, that one huge cube has less surface area than those 100 small cubes combined. That's why we need small cells.                                                                  A larger surface area allows for more exchanges to occur and a larger volume allows for more materials to be brought in or released from the cell at a given time. (The rate of exchange would increase for larger surface areas and volumes of cells.)

Why aren't lipids considered polymers?
OverLord2011 [107]
A polymer is made up of monomers. A monomer is a unit that occurs in repetitive chains. Lipids do not occur in repetitive chains, so they are not classified as monomers. Since they're not monomers, they can't make up polymers, either.
