I won't give the answer, but here's the process: You have the weight of the object (0.500 lbs), and you want to convert that into the number of kernels. You are given the fact that 1 pound = 16 oz, and 1 oz=28.3 grams. So it should be apparent that you need to convert pounds to ounces first and then convert ounces to grams. Now that you the grams, you can easily figure out how many kernels there are because .125 grams equals the weight of one kernel.

Answer:
First, the microwaves transmit kinetic energy to the water molecules of the food, heating the water molecules. Only, those that are not very deep into the food.
Second, the hot water molecules transmit heat by conduction to the other parts of the food.
Explanation:
1) Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation. The same as any wave, they carry energy.
2) The wave length of microwaves are in the range of 0.001 mm to 1 m (shorter than radio waves and longer than infrared)
3) The microwaves of an oven, used to heat food, have a wave length aroun 12 cm.
4) The microwaves transmit energy to the water molecules in the food, by increasing the kinetic energy of water molecules. As result, the water molecules get hotter. Microwaves only penetrate about 1 cm inside the food (a potato for example) and from that the heat is transferred by conduction to the inner parts of the food.
Answer:
Ligands
Explanation:
Ligands are small molecules that transmit signals in between or within cells. Ligands exert their effects by binding to cellular proteins called receptors.
