Answer:

Spontaneous generation  / abiogenesis

Explanation:

Long ago, philosopher still debating where did living organism come from. Aristotle came up and hypothesized  that living being can come from inanimate matter (without any genetic transfers from the parents of that particular organism) . This theory called spontaneous generation.  

Spontaneous generation had later on proven to be false and living being is not spontaneously created, but come from reproduction of the same species which passed on their genes to the next generation.

Answer: W = 6.4x10⁻²¹J

Explanation: <u>Work</u> is the energy transferred to or from an object due to the application of a force along a displacement.

The ion Na is gaining energy to move from a lower potential to a higher one.

For this to happen, the work done is calculated as

W=q.\Delta V

in which

W is work in Joules (J)

q is charge in Coulomb (C)

\Delta V is potential difference in Volts (V)

The ion Na has one positive charge. In coulombs, the charge is

q = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

The potential difference in Volts is

\Delta V = 40x10⁻³ or 4x10⁻²V

Calculating

W=q.\Delta V

W = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹. 4x10⁻²

W = 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J

The work done to move an ion of sodium from the exterior to the interior is 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J.

Lisa [10]

The bald eagle and the black bear are tetrapods, which means that they both have four limbs along with the digits. This shows that they both are the descendants of the four-limbed ancestors. However, the limbs of the bear and the bald eagle have different functions. The forelimbs of both these organisms serves different purpose. Hence, their limbs are homologous organs. The homologous organs are those which have the same ancestry but the functions are different.
