How does the structure of the stigma aid in pollination

1 answer:

5 0

<span>Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred to the female part of a plant. The stigma is the central part of the flower, that is supported by a style and is part of the female reproductive organ within plants. Its structure is optimised to promote pollination by having hairs, sticky surfaces and three-dimensional sculptures that capture and trap pollen.</span>

Once a disk forms around a star, the process of planetary formation can begin. Rank the evolutionary stages for the formation of

PolarNik [594]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The evolutionary stages for the formation of planets from earliest to latest will be:

1. Dust keeps matter inside the disk cool enough for planet formation to start

2. Dust grains form condensation nuclei on which surrounding atoms condense to form small clumps of matter.

3. Small clumps of matter stick together via the process of accretion to form planetesimals a few hundred kilometers in diameter.

4. Planetesimals begin to accrete, forming protoplanets.

5. A collection of a few planet-sized protoplanets remain in a fairly cleared out disk around the star

How does the atmospheric temperature and size of inner planets compare with those of outer planets?

amid [387]

The inner planets are rocky and have diameters of less than 13,000 kilometers. The outer planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The smaller, inner planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Inner planet's atmosphere is thin. (Mercury has no atmosphere). Outer Planets: Outer planets' atmosphere is very thick. The four inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are warmer than the outer gas giants. However, the temperature of the planets does not follow a linear path from the Sun.

What is the wavelenght of an earthquake wave if it has a speed of 11 km/s and a frequency of 15 Hz

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The wavelength is about 733 meters.

Explanation:

Use the wavelength-frequency relationship:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}= \frac{11000 \frac{m}{s}}{15 s^{-1}}\approx733m$

The wavelength is about 733 meters.

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

At an altitude of 5000 m the rocket's acceleration has increased to 6.9 m/s2 . What mass of fuel has it burned?

sergey [27]

1) Initial upward acceleration: $6.0 m/s^2$

2) Mass of burned fuel: $0.10\cdot 10^4 kg$

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the rocket at the beginning:

- The force of gravity, of magnitude $F_g = mg$ , in the downward direction, where

$m=1.9\cdot 10^4 kg$ is the rocket's mass

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

- The thrust of the motor, T, in the upward direction, of magnitude

$T=3.0\cdot 10^5 N$

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on the rocket must be equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration, so we can write:

$T-mg=ma$ (1)
