What have scientists learned from studying seismic waves

Biology
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
8 0
Scientists are able to understand the earth's interior by studying these seismic waves. They are waves of energy that travel through Earth, and actually move similarly to other types of waves, like sound waves, light waves, and water waves.

It’s quite interesting because
they give out lots of useful information.
But really this only scratches the surface on what they can do!

Happy to help!

How is osmosis different from diffusion
kupik [55]
Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.

Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.

Hope this helped!

Discuss why emerging diseases are appearing in industrialized countries.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

The correct answer is "For different reasons, including: pathogens developed resistance, people traveling much more frequently and practices of terrorism".

Explanation:

Emerging diseases are infectious diseases that are new to a region, or that remerge from a place that were believed to be eradicated. For different reasons emerging diseases are appearing in industrialized countries. One is that pathogens may have developed resistance to the treatments, as they may evolved naturally or it was driven by overuse of antibiotics. Other is that people are traveling much more frequently than in the past, which helps pathogens from distance places to reach industrialized areas. Also, terrorism practices is a cause of introducing pathogens deliberately to a new place.

Which of the following statements is true about dna
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

D. The site of transcription is within the nucleus

Explanation:

this is because the process of DNA is converted into RNA

This requires a protein called RNA polymerase. It will copy certain regions of DNA and convert them into RNA (this occurs in the nucleus) and then this RNA goes to the cytoplasm, where it will be translated into a protein.

Therefore, its D.
