Contrast the role of research in science and pseudoscience

Biology
1 answer:
MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago
3 0
Science involves employing the scientific method, developing hypotheses and testing them and then developing new hypotheses based on the results. Any hard science of social science attempts to follow these guidelines. 

<span>Psuedoscience occurs when people come to conclusions based on their own political and religious agendas. Creationism is a good example of this. Right or wrong, it does not utilize the scientific method but instead attempts to explain results based on already-held assertions.</span>

Describe three clean coal technologies and how they can mitigate the environmental impacts of coal. Explain how they work and pr
Andrej [43]

Clean coal technology refers to a gathering of technologies being created in order to reduce the environmental influence of coal energy production and to mitigate global climate change. There are three distinct technological procedures accessible for the aim of capturing carbon as demanded by the clean coal concept:  

1. Pre-combustion capture: This includes gasification of a feedstock like coal to generate gas that may be shifted to develop a mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas, from which the carbon dioxide can be effectively separated and captured, transported, and eventually sequestered.  

2. Post-combustion capture: This is the capturing of carbon dioxide from the exhaust gases of combustion methods.  

3. Oxy-fuel combustion: The fossil fuels like coal are combusted in a mixture of oxygen and recirculated flue gas, rather than in air that hugely withdraws nitrogen from the flue gas allowing capturing of low-cost and efficient carbon dioxide.  

An initial example of a coal-based plant utilizing carbon capturing technology is a Swedish company Vattenfall's Schwarze Pumpe power station situated in Germany.

Most of the atp supplies for a skeletal muscle undergoing one hour of sustained exercise come from _____.
ioda

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) creatine phosphate.

B) glycolysis.

C) substrate phosphorylation.

D) oxidative phosphorylation.

E) de novo synthesis.

Answer:

D) oxidative phosphorylation.

Explanation:

The ATP is the energy molecule which provides energy to every metabolic process in the organism.

The ATP in humans is produced by a process called cellular respiration where the last phase of the process called electron transport chain produces the highest amount of protein. The electron transport chain is also known as the oxidative phosphorylation as the oxygen is gained and electrons are lost during the phase.

Thus, D) oxidative phosphorylation is correct.

which one of the plants pictured below was given water mixed with salt, and which one was given pure water? Explain how you know
ludmilkaskok [199]

The plant on the right must have been the one given a saltwater mixture while the one on the left must have been given pure water.

<h3>Osmosis</h3>

Looking at the attached image closely, one would see that the plant on the right has withered leaves while the leaves of the plant on the left seem to be flourishing.

The plant on the right must have been the one fed with water mixed with salt and here is the reason. Adding water mixed with salt to the soil on which the plant grows will decrease the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the plant into the soil through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become flaccid, and hence, the withered leaves.

On the contrary, the plant on the left must have been fed with pure water. Feeding the soil with pure water will increase the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the soil into the plant through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become turgid, and hence, the flourishing leaves.
