Answer:
Water has properties of cohesion and adhesion.
Explanation:
The single Hydrogen atom and double Oxygen atoms attach to each other in such a way their are minute polar polarity differences. Electron bonds will combine to form one side of the compound as being positive and the other side positive. Positive side of other H2O molecules will attach to the negative side. This bond causes water to adhere to sides of a glass test tube.
Will also create a bead when it drips on another non-porous surface. Adding soap will break the bead (surfactant). Water is the perfect solvent.
Answer:
A feedback loop is a biological occurrence where the output of a system amplifies the system (positive feedback) or inhibits the system (negative feedback).
Explanation:
Example, during blood clotting, a cascade of enzymic proteins acitvates each other, leading to the formation of fibrin clot that prevents further blood loss.
<span>The minimal amount of nutrients needed every day by healthy people to prevent nutrient deficiencies is called the RDA.
RDA stands for recommended dietary allowances. </span>RDA's are established by the Food and
Nutrition Board of the National Academy of Sciences. There is a term RDI related to this. RDI stands for recommended daily intake.
Answer:
c) receptor; control center; effector.
Explanation:
Homeostasis maintains the internal body conditions almost constant. It includes specific cells that sense any deviations of internal or external conditions from the normal range. These cells are called receptors. The sensory information from the receptors is delivered to the control center. The central nervous system mainly serves as a control system wherein sensory information from the receptors is processed. The control center commands muscles and/or glands to perform desired responses to restore the homeostasis. Here, muscles and glands serve as effectors.
For example, thermoreceptors sense the rise of body temperature and the brain (control center) commands sweat glands (effectors) to produce sweat.
None of those options are correct.
Fungi produce,naturally, antibiotics that will kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria.
This is useful for them to limit competition in their natural environment but it's also useful for us because it will kill bacteria that cause us infections.
The only thing scientists had to do is isolate that antibiotic.
Some antibiotics that were developed from fungi: penicillin and cephalosporins.
