Answer:

The answer to the question: What happens to Earth when large magnetic storms from the sun bombard the atmosphere? would be: most of the radiation from the sun´s magnetic storm hits the Earth´s own magnetic fields and is reflected from the atmosphere, otherwise life on Earth would not be possible, and the energy charges the magnetosphere and can damage certain devices such as satellites, and can damage communication systems, as well as electrical systems.

Explanation:

These magnetic sun storms, are called solar flares, and could be deadly were it not for the Earth´s powerful magnetic fields. These fields, called magnetosphere, are entrusted with the task of reflecting back most radiation from the sun and space itself, protecting life. In the poles, for example, it is possible to see the interaction between solar flares and the magnetic shields of Earth in the boreal lights. However, one problem for us is that the energy released by the interaction can bring down satellites and most oftenly knocks down communication systems on Earth. This energy can also overcharge electrical systems.

Answer:

The solar wind's magnetic field interacts with the Earth's magnetic field and transfers an increased energy into the magnetosphere. ... The frequency of geomagnetic storms increases and decreases with the sunspot cycle.

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles that perform a variety of tasks such as flexion, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation. The muscles in this group are essential to all movement of the shoulder, making them very essential for upper body mobility. Namely, the muscles of the rotator cuff are supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis.

Answer:

its answer is 1. cerebellum

Explanation:

The cerebellum is a part of the brain that plays a vital role in virtually all physical movement. This part of the brain helps a person drive, throw a ball, or walk across the room. The cerebellum also assists people with eye movement and vision. Problems with the cerebellum are rare and mostly involve movement .

In a population of plants, the allele for long stems (S) is completely dominant over the allele for short stems (s). If 35% of t

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be 48 percent.

It can be solved by using the Hardy-Weinberg equation.

p² + 2pq+ q² = 1

p + q = 1

where, p² represents homozygous dominant's frequency that is, SS in this case,

q² represents homozygous recessive's frequency that is, ss in this case,

2pq represents heterozygous dominant's frequency that is, Ss in this case.

p represents dominant allele's frequency and q represents the recessive allele's frequency.

Now, the percentage of homozygous recessive or short stems is 35%. Therefore, the frequency of homozygous recessive would be 0.35.

Thus, the value of q² = 0.35

So, q = $\sqrt{0.35}$ = 0.59 which is approximately equals to 0.6.

As p + q = 1 so, q = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

The frequency of heterozygous (Ss) = 2pq = 2(0.6)(0.4) = 0.48

Hence, the frequency of heterozygous would be 48 percent.

When colors are absorbed, the light changes into.<br> ..

Anna71 [15]

Answer: a change in energy state occurs. The answer is dark or opaque - not able to be seen through.

Explanation:

The absorption of light makes an object dark or opaque to the wavelengths or colors of the incoming wave: Wood is opaque to visible light. Some materials are opaque to some wavelengths of light, but transparent to others. Glass and water are opaque to ultraviolet light, but transparent to visible light.
