The answer is; Mercalli intensity scale
It measures the intensity of an earthquake which can be determined by its destruction effect. The Ritcher scale on the other hand mostly measures the energy of an earthquake. The Mercalli scale ranges from I (no destruction) to XII (Total destruction).
Answer:
The correct option is c. c. heat is released in the process.
Explanation:
Thermodynamics is the study of the behavior of heat energy and the ways in which energy is transformed into heat. The second law of thermodynamics indicates that from one form of energy to another (mechanical energy to chemical heat and vice versa) there is loss of energy in the form of heat. This form of energy, known as heat, is degraded energy, which is simply disorganized movement of molecules. The second law of thermodynamics implies that there is always a tendency towards greater disorder or entropy. To counteract entropy, that is to create order, energy must be used. This can be observed in a natural ecosystem: the energy emitted by the sun is captured by plants and converted into energy stored by photosynthetic processes.
Photosynthesis is the process in which the energy of light is converted into chemical energy in the form of sugars. The energy accumulated by plants during photosynthesis is called primary productivity. The solar energy that reaches the surface of an ecosystem is only used approximately 1%, because the losses are considerable until reaching primary production. In effect, approximately 45% of the available light is absorbable by photosynthetic organelles; a part of the potential radiation is reflected; another part is transmitted by the vegetal organs, that is to say, that passes through them, and the absorbed energy is transformed into heat.
<span>Instead, they have evolved chloroplasts, as a
way to generate their own carbohydrates without consuming other
organisms, by harnessing solar energy to convert carbon dioxide and
water into carbohydrates. ... Mitochondria, on the other hand, efficiently break down macromolecules, such as carbohydrates or lipids, into ATP.</span>
Answer:
Protein synthesis is the process in which cells make proteins.
