NikAS [45]3 years ago

Explanation:

Earthquakes occur when elastic energy is accumulated slowly within the Earth's crust as a result of plate motions and then released suddenly at fractures in the crust called faults. The released energy travels in the form of waves called seismic waves. They always start at the focus. (A focus is where an earthquakes starting place.) The the power would start to travel and hit the  epicenter, an epicenter is the point on land directly above the focus, soon on the surface. There are three types of earthquakes, the Primary, Secondary, and surface waves. Primary waves cause the rocks they pass through to change in volume. These waves are the fastest traveling seismic waves and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Also called P wave See Note at earthquake. Secondary waves start at the same time as primary waves. Secondary waves travel through Earth's interior at about half the speed of primary waves. Secondary waves are also called S waves. And Surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media. A common example is gravity waves along the surface of liquids, such as ocean waves. Gravity waves can also occur within liquids, at the interface between two fluids with different densities.

In the fluid-mosaic model of the plasma membrane, the phospholipid molecules are oriented so that the _____________ heads are fa
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Hydrophilic heads facing exterior

Hydrophobic tails facing interior

Explanation:

In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed to describe the structure of the plasma membrane. This model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipids, cholesterol and proteins. The phospholipid component is composed of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate-containing head, which are arranged in two adjacent layers forming the phospholipid bilayer in the membrane of biological organisms.

Phospholipids have both the hydrophilic and hydrophobic region. Hence they are said to be AMPHIPATHIC.

The head of the phospholipid is negatively charged due to its phosphate content, making it polar and hydrophilic i.e. water-loving. This hydrophilic head faces the exterior of the cell in order to interact with fluids.

The tails of the phospholipid are long fatty acids that keep away from water i.e. hydrophobic. Due to their water-fearing nature, they avoid water and face the interior of the cell, where each tail face each other.

Yuri [45]

Explanation:

Cut off the tail at the base. Using an EXTREMELY sharp skinny knife, start separating the hide from the meat, staring at the cuts that you made on the rear legs. You'll notice that the skin starts to kind of peel off - use the space to continue skinning.

How does the complementary pairing of bases allow both strands of a DNA molecule to contain the same information?
yanalaym [24]

Explanation:

During replication, the double stranded helix of DNA is unwinded and unzipped by helicase. Polymerase cannot just start adding nucleotide to the strand so DNA primase synthesizes a short strand of nucleotide called primers, then the enzyme polymerase can now start the additional of free nucleotide. The enzyme polymerase adds free complementary nucleotide to the leading strand in 3' to 5' and the same is done for the lagging strand. The new daughter complementary strand formed on the leading strand is identical to the parent lagging strand and the new daughter complementary strand formed on the lagging strand is identical to the parent leading strand, so a pair of identical daughter double stranded DNA or two identical daughter double stranded DNA are formed.
