Despite longstanding assumptions by marine biologists, very young sea turtles travel by swimming, not just drifting.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The movement of sea turtles will be always slower in nature. This is because they are herbivores. They feed on plants and they will be available for them in larger quantity. Hence, they move slowly because they are not in a need to run behind their food faster.

Drifting refers to the movement due to force or pressure that may be caused by wind. Swimming refers to a movement where the entire body movement is essential for moving. From the investigation by the researchers given in the example, we can conclude that despite of longstanding assumptions by marine biologists, very young sea turtles travel by swimming, not just drifting.

D. A duck flies to another pond.
The above sentence is an example of emigration. Emigration refers to moving from one area to another for a long or permanent period. In this instance, a duck is leaving the pond it originally resided in (along a population other ducks) in order to reside in another pond. Therefore, it can be said that the duck "emigrated".

svp [43]

Answer:

the answer is Newton's third and Second law

Explanation:

Newton's second law tells us that the force that is generated on a body is proportional to the acceleration it acquires.

F= M*A

at lower mass greater acceleration

Newton's third law explains that for each force that acts on a body, it performs a force of equal intensity and direction but in the opposite direction to the body than gender.

Question 4
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

In eukaryotes, thousands of chemical reactions are able to take place in  separate compartments called organelles.

Explanation:

Organelles are specific cellular structures that are the means of compartmentalizing the various functions that occur within cells.

Examples of organelles and their functions are:

- <u>Nucleus</u>: contains DNA and in it occur the replication of this molecule and its transcription into RNA.

- <u>Rough endoplasmic reticulum</u>: protein synthesis and conjugation of these molecules occurs.

- <u>Mitochondrion</u>: houses all oxidative phosphorylation reactions and the electron transport chain for ATP synthesis to occur.

The organelles are then the structures that allow the development of the multiple functions that a cell has.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em><u>Bacteria</u></em><em> is a prokaryotic organism. </em>
  • <em><u>Prokaryote</u></em><em> refers to simple organisms that lack organelles. </em>
  • <em><u>Proteins</u></em><em> are biomolecules that allow the structure and function of living beings.</em>
