Answer:
C. metals
Explanation:
Elements in the periodic table are grouped into metal and non-metals depending on their characteristics. Metals usually possess the following characteristics:
- High melting and boiling point
- Brittle i.e. ability to break
- lustre i.e. ability to shine when polished.
- Good conductor of heat and electricity
Based on this above characteristics, element Q in this question is a METAL because it posseses the same qualities that a metal does.
Turner pressure is simply the force within the plant cell that pushes the cell membrane or plasma membrane against the cell wall.
It is caused by the Osmotic flow of water through the semi permeable membrane.
It helps the plant cells to remain turgid and stand tall so as to prevent it from wilting
Answer:
It takes Earth longer to revolve around the sun than to rotate on its axis.
Explanation:
The vocabulary can be tricky in this question. It is important to remember that the term revolution refers to something moving around a fixed point. In this case, the earth is the object revolving around sun which is the fixed point in the frame of reference.
Now, the earth rotates at a constant speed around its axis. This is what causes the day/night cycle. The earth itself is spinning, therefore we use the term rotate.
Decomposers get energy from dead or decaying matter. Examples are fungi, bacteria, some insects and snails.
Viruses reproduce by incorporating
their DNA into an organism's genome to tap into the
host replication mechanism to reproduce themselves.
Viruses, therefore, cannot copy outside their host. This property of viruses makes them suitable
for the production of transgenic
organisms. This is achieved by replacing
the DNA piece that causes virulence in the virus with the desired gene
that is to be transduced into the host organisms.
