Why do we need gametes?

Physics
2 answers:
Nataliya [291]2 years ago
7 0
Gametes are the cells used during sexual reproduction to produce a new individual organism or zygote. The male gamete, sperm, is a smaller, mobile cell that meets up with the much larger and less mobile female gamete, egg or ova. Both sperm and egg are only haploid cells. They only carry half of the chromosomes needed.

How high would you have to lift a 1000kg car to give it a potential energy of:
Elza [17]

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1000kg

Unknown:

Height  = ?

To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.

Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.

 It is mathematically expressed as:

          P.E  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height of the car

Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.

               h = \frac{P.E }{mg}

<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{2000}{1000 x 9.8}   = 0.204m

<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{200000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 20.4m

<u>For 1.0kJ  = 1 x 10³J; </u>

                  h  = \frac{1000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 0.102m

How much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is
mafiozo [28]

1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km

<h3>What is Speed ?</h3>

Speed is the distance travelled per time taken. It is a scalar quantity. And the S.I unit is meter per second. That is, m/s

In the given question, we want to find how much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 10^5 km.

What are the parameters to consider ?

The parameters are;

  • The distance S = 3.85 × 10^{5} km
  • The Speed of Light C = 3 × 10^{8} m/s
  • The time taken t = ?

Speed = distance S ÷ Time t

Convert kilometer to meter by multiplying it by 1000

C = S/t

3 × 10^{8} =  3.85 × 10^{8} / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 3.85 × 10^{8} / 3 × 10^{8}

t = 1.2833

t = 1.3 s

Therefore, 1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km

How much heat h1 is transferred to the skin by 25.0 g of steam onto the skin? the latent heat of vaporization for steam is l=2.2
elena-s [515]
The heat transferred by the steam to the skin is given by
Q=m L_v
where
m is the mass of the steam
L_v is the latent heat of vaporization.

In our problem, the mass of the steam is (converting into kg)
m=25.0 g=0.025 kg
while the latent heat of vaporization of the steam is
L_v = 2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg
Substituting into the previous formula, we find the heat transferred to the skin:
Q=m L_v = (0.025 kg)(2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg)=56400 J = 2.56 \cdot 10^4 J

While looking at a cliff, you observe that three visible layers of rocks are tilted about 30 degrees. There are four straight ho
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

the principle of original horizontality and the principle of superposition

Explanation:

The <em>principle of horizontality</em> states that layers of sediment are originally deposited horizontally under the influence of gravity.

The <em>principle of superposition</em> states that the oldest layer layer is at the bottom and each layer above it is younger, with the youngest being at the top.

Unconformities help us find the age of different layers. An unconformity is a surface in which no new solid matter is deposited after a long geologic interval. <em>Angular unconformity </em>is a type of unconformity which different kinds of stratum were tilted or folded before deposition of younger layers of solid matter above the unconformity. Once the layers were folded and tilted, the older layers of the solid matter eroded, then the younger layers were deposited on the older layers. There <em>angular unconformity </em>is the contact between young and old layers of solid matter.

Therefore, these two principles therefore describe how the tilted layers are older than horizontal layers.
