Answer - C. Bodies of water would freeze from the bottom up.

Reason - Since solid water aka ICE is denser than liquid.. Then we can kiss our penguins good buy cause the whole Earth will be submerge of water since the Arctic is made of ice and if it sank boom there goes for the planet and so as Antarctica.

Answer: C. Bodies of water would freeze from the bottom up.

Explanation:

The water in the form of ice exhibit low density as compared to the water in the liquid form. Hence, the ice will float over the surface of water if ice is kept in water.

But according to the given condition, the solid water that is actually the ice will be denser than the liquid water. Thus the solid water will sink at the bottom of the liquid water. As a consequence the bodies of water would freeze from the bottom.

Why is it appropriate for ribosomes to be found on the endoplasmic reticulum?

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Those floating ribosomes make proteins that will be used inside of the cell. Other ribosomes are found on the endoplasmic reticulum. Endoplasmic reticulum with attached ribosomes is called rough ER. ... The attached ribosomes make proteins that will be used inside the cell and proteins made for export out of the cell.

Sodium has the atomic number 11. How many electrons are in a sodium ion, which has the symbol Na=?

AlladinOne [14]

Atomic number is the number of protons of an atom. And, given that the atoms are electrically neutral and the charge of one proton is equal to the charge of one electron, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So the neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons and 11 electrons. But, the sodium ion (Na+) has one positive charge, that means that it has lost one negative charge or one electron. Then, the sodium ion (Na+) has 11 - 1 = 10 electrons. <span>Then, the answer is that there are 10 electrons in a sodium ion.

hope this helps :3</span>

Biologists often cut several sections from a cell to find out about its structure. Why is having several sections from different

Phoenix [80]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Because cell structure is not uniform from every side and in every section.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

A cell is a unit of life and it contains all the structure which are important for the functions of a life.

Cell contains nucleus for genetic material storage and replication. It contains mitochondria for respiration and ribosomes for protein production. Apart from these structures it contains golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes and cell membrane. Except cell membrane their structures are not uniformally distributed.

That's why biologists often cut several sections from a cell to find out about its structure.
