Answer:

C) Both are waves of energy, but ultraviolet waves cannot be seen.

Explanation:

Both visible light and ultraviolet are two manifestations of the same thing: electromagnetic radiation (which is, basically, energy in one of its forms). They both travel empty space as waves, but visible light has a longer wavelength, which means that the distance between succesive peaks of the wave is larger than that of ultraviolet radiation. Visible light just happens to have a wavelength in the range our eyes are capable of seeing, but ultraviolet has a shorter wavelength than that, therefore we cannot see it.

Answer: Lack of energy

Explanation:

Oxygen is needed in a process known as Respiration where it is used to produce energy from glucose. This energy is what the cell uses to continue whatever functions that it carries out which are needed for the body to survive. If the cells don't get oxygen, they can't make energy and if they can't make energy, they die.

Some cells are more important than others and so will need a constant supply of oxygen. The brain for instance requires 20% of the oxygen used in the body. If the body suffers from a lack of oxygen for whatever reason, brain cells begin to die within about 4 minutes.

The brain is extremely important as it directs the body. If the cells there begin to die, the body deteriorates and the body stops engaging in certain processes due to a lack of direction from the brain. This coupled with the other cells dying around the body will lead to even more deterioration till the body dies.

Xelga [282]
<span>A. Is the correct answer. Industrial Revolution made far-reaching developments in history.

Because of this, people had more time to focus in more technological advancement and improve the quality of life through producing more food and mass producing medicine. Mortality rate was increased because lesser people were getting sick because of medicines becoming readily available. People who were replaced by machines had the time to take care of their families and giving them the proper nourishment.</span>
