5 0

The Earth's crust is the outer layer of the Earth and is made of solid rock. It is also the thinnest layer. As well known, the crust makes up 1% of the Earth. The crust of the Earth is broken into pieces called plates.

The temperature ranges from 0 - 700 Celsius. The Earth's crust is often compared to an apples skin, this because of it's thickness compared to the other three layers. The average thickness is 6 - 70 km.

What are three ways global warming might affect the water cycle?
kirza4 [7]
1) Increased frequency and intensity of precipitation (rainfall) events because of higher concentration of water vapor.
2) There might also be an increase in water runoff into rivers, streams and other bodies of water.
3) Because of warm temperature, there will be increased drying of land areas in different parts of the world.

What is the structures of carbohydrates?
inessss [21]

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are biomolecules that contain hydrogen, carbon and oxygen. They are generally structured as a chain of carbons with hydroxyl groups, and ketones or aldehydes. The subtypes include;

Monosaccharides

Disaccharides

Polysaccharides

Monosaccharides are generally represented by the formula CH2On. They are classified based on the number of carbon atoms they have. Example, hexoses have 6 carbon atoms, pentose, 5, diose, 2 etc. They are also classified based on whether they have ketones or aldehydes. Examples of monosaccharides are glucose and fructose.

Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides form glycosidic bond through a dehydration reaction. Examples of disaccharides include; maltose, lactose, and sucrose which is made up of glucose and fructose. An oligosaccharide is made up of 2-10 monosaccharides and are often components of glycoproteins or glycolipids.

Polysaccharides, also called complex carbohydrates are long-chain carbohydrates made of repeated monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds. Examples are starches and glycogen.

The component of a homeostatic control system which transmits the response is called the receptor.
The receptor is the part of the human body that experiences everything - if you hurt yourself, that receptor will transmit the pain signal throughout the body, reach the brain, which will then make you react to pain in one way or another.

Cells assemble carbohydrates through dehydration synthesis which means a(n) what molecule is removed when the monomers are bonde
mr_godi [17]
The process for connecting two monomers together is called dehydration synthesis. Dehydration means “removal of water” and synthesis means “to join together”. So in this process, two monomers are covalently bonded by the removal of a water molecule. Each organic monomer has a hydroxyl group on one side and a hydrogen on the other. When two monomers line up side by side, they will have these two functional groups facing one another. The H and the OH will break off of their respective monomers and bond forming a water molecule. This is the dehydration part of the process. Each monomer now has a carbon atom that needs to covalently bond with something, so they bind to each other forming a polymer. That is the synthesis part of the process.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Population A: K, D, F, H, I

Population B: L, E

Population C: G, J

Explanation:

Biologists studying disease susceptibility in mice used genetic techniques to look for gene flow in 12 wild populations of mice. The populations (designated A through L) were located along a 210-km transect line.
