Biology

Answer:

C) They are compressed during inhalation.

Explanation:

Birds breathe through rigid lungs that are located in the animal's thoracic region. The trachea of birds divides into bronchi that branch inside the lungs into very thin tubes called parabronchials or parabroncholes, which are irrigated by blood capillaries that allow gas exchange.

In birds there are no pulmonary alveoli (as in mammals), but air capillaries that depart from the parabroncholes. Oxygen gas passes from these capillaries to the blood capillaries, thus causing gas exchange.

In the lower portion of the bird's trachea, before branching the bronchi, we can find the syringe, a bag-like structure that has vocal cords responsible for the birds' scream and song. Most of the time, the sound emitted by birds serves to attract the mate, mark territory and prevent birds of the same species against some predator or other danger.

Why do scientists think it is necessary to develop new ways to create ethanol
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Due to the cost and resource input (specially the land) required for producing ethanol

Explanation:

In current time most of the ethanol is produced by fermenting corn, sugarcane or other plants at high temperature. In this process of fermentation, liquid bio fuel is produced.  

These plants and crops require large area for cultivation and production along with huge inputs of fertilizers and water. As per an estimate , 3 gallons of ethanol require bushel of corn that intakes 800 gallons of water which is a huge cost to any nation or individual  

Hence, scientist are  finding new ways to create ethanol

Given that a virus divides every 3 hours, and that a cell lyses (explodes) after it reaches a viral load of 5,000,000 units, how
vladimir2022 [97]

The replication time for a virus starting at 1,500 units to lyse the cell is 5 hours.

<h3>How to calculate the Exponential growth/decay formula?</h3>

x ( t ) = x 0 × (1 + r ) t

  • x(t) is the value at time t.

  • x 0 is the initial value at time t = 0.

  • r is the growth rate when r/ 0 or decay rate when r < 0, in percentage.

  • t is the time in discrete intervals and selected time units.

Whit this information, we can conclude that the replication time for a virus starting at 1,500 units to lyse the cell is 5 hours.
