The ball accelerates because of gravity.

Because there is a 'net force' on it.  That means that all the different
forces on it do NOT all cancel out.  Whenever there is a net force on
an object ... not zero force ... the object accelerates.  (That means that
either its speed or its direction changes.)  We've known this for about
300 years now.
The main force on the ball is the force of gravity.

Answer:

Contemporary light microscopes are able to magnify objects up to about a thousand times. Since most cells are between 1 and 100 μm in diameter, they can be observed by light microscopy, as can some of the larger subcellular organelles, such as nuclei, chloroplasts, and mitochondria.

A cell is the smallest unit of a living thing. A living thing, whether made of one cell (like bacteria) or many cells (like a human), is called an organism. Thus, cells are the basic building blocks of all organisms.

Cells have many structures inside of them called organelles. These organelles are like the organs in a human and they help the cell stay alive. Each organelle has it's own specific function to help the cell survive. The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell directs the cell's activities and stores DNA.

If the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function.

water, if this were to occur u would want to immediately wash it with well water.


Reason: Strong bases react with the oils in your skin to produce a soapy feeling layer. Rinse until well after that feeling is gone.
