A student is investigating temperature changes at a nature preserve on a hot, clear day. Each hour, the student takes two temper

atures: one over the ground, and one over the water of a lake. During this investigation, which observation is the student MOST LIKELY to make?
A. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

B. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature earlier in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

C. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will cool off more quickly than air over the ground.

D. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature earlier in the day and will cool off more quickly than air over the ground.

A. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

Explanation:

The most likely observation the student will record is that the air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

This phenomenon between the differences in land and water temperature causes land sea breeze to occur.

  • Water has a very high specific heat capacity.
  • This implies it takes more heat to cause a monumental increase in its temperature.
  • It is expected that the student will observe that the air over the lake body will reach its highest temperature later in the day. It would have gotten heated with time.

A body such as water in a lake with a high specific heat capacity stays warm for a longer period of time compared to other substances.

Metals do not have high specific heat capacity and would not stay warm for long. They quickly lose heat.

You inoculate two tubes of liquid culture medium with 100 bacterial cells and incubate one tube at 37°C and the other at 55°C. A
Nady [450]

Answer:

thermophile.

Explanation:

A thermophile is a kind of bacteria that belongs to the Archaea Domain and they are the kind of animals that can live in a region of high or extreme temperature. There has been a research on a kind of thermophile which is known as Methanopyrus kandleri which can exist in an extreme temperature of up to 500° C.

So, if we take a look at the question again we can see that after 48 hours and at 37°C 20,000 bacteria per milliliter are already in the tube and at more higher temperature of 55°C we have 1,568,000 bacteria per milliliter which means that at higher temperature more of the bacterial is produced.

Neurons in the parasympathetic pathway use which neurotransmitters?
Kay [80]
<h2>Acetylcholine</h2>

Explanation:

  • Acetylcholine is a chemical that is found between the nerve synapses, or gaps, between nerve cells. When activated, it causes the contraction of skeletal muscles and activates glandular functions in the endocrine system. Think of acetylcholine as a mailperson; residents cannot receive their mail until he or she comes and delivers it to the mailbox. Like mailpersons who deliver the mail and move on to the next house, acetylcholine acts quickly and does not hang around. As a result, acetylcholine is rapidly broken down by another chemical substance called cholinesterase.
  • Acetylcholine was the first neurotransmitter scientists discovered, as well as the most abundant neurotransmitter in the body. A neurotransmitter is a chemical that is released by a neuron, or nerve cell, that sends a signal to another neuron across a synapse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors to affect how the signal is received. The purpose of the neurotransmitter is to either amplify or inhibit the signals sent between the neurons.
  • Acetylcholine plays an important role in the signal of muscle movement, sensation of pain, learning and memory formation, the regulation of the endocrine system and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep cycles.

One method for separating polypeptides makes use of their different solubilities. The solubility of large polypeptides in water
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The solubility of any substance in water depends on its polarity. The polar molecule dissolves more easily in the water than the non polar molecule. Amino acids have different polarity at different pH.

(a) (Lys-Ala)3 : The (Lys-Ala)3 contain more positive charge and highly polar the at pH 7 as compared with the  (Gly)20 that remains uncharged and has less polarity.

(b) (Glu)20 :This amino acids negatively charged at pH 7 and highly polar than the (Phe-Met)3 which is non polar or less polar and hence least soluble  in water.

(c) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is highly polar at pH 3 as compared with the (Ala-Asp-Gly)5 that contains the carboxylate groups of Asp residues that are partially neutral. The  (Asn-Ser-His)5 contains = the imidazole groups of His residues are fully polar and soluble in water.

(d) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is polar at pH 6.0 because both have polar side chains Ser but (Asn-Ser-His)5 is only partially partially protonated due to the His side chains. Thus,  (Asn-Ser-His)5 is more soluble in water.
