Answer:

Answer is option D.

The sun's energy is transferred through the vacuum of space to Earth by radiation.

Explanation:

The three forms of heat transfer are conduction, convection and radiation. The process of heat transfer between two solid objects in contact with one another due to a temperature difference is known as conduction. An ice cube melts while you hold it in your hand, is an example of conduction. Here, the heat energy from the hand is transferred to the ice cube and the ice melts.

Convection is the heat transfer occurs in moving materials (liquid or gas) due to the temperature difference between two regions. Hot soup rises to the top of the bowl, while cooler soup sinks to the bottom is an example of convection. The hot soup is less dense than cold soup, so it rises to the top and the cold soup at the top sinks to the bottom.

Radiation is a form of heat transfer where the heat energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves like infrared, UV rays etc. The sun's energy is transferred through the vacuum of space to Earth by radiation. Heat energy is transferred through vacuum by infrared radiation emitted by the Sun. The Earth absorbs it and turns the energy into heat.

Which graph most likely represents a rabbit population that found a new larger habitat, but then eventually experienced an
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The graph illustrating such a phenomenon will show a sharp curve in upward manners in the beginning but then will  grow downwards as the predation increases.

Explanation:

When a rabbit population is introduced in a habitat, the new habitat will have abundant food for the rabbits. As a result, the population of the rabbits will grow at a much faster rate and hence the graph will move sharply upwards in the beginning. But with the passage of time, the predators of the rabbits will also increase due to the abundance of their preys. More predators will feed on more rabbits and hence a slow decline in the curve will be seen afterwards.

Why do plant cells have a cell wall and plant cells don’t?
Minchanka [31]
So animal cells can have various shapes, but plant cells only havethe shapes of their cell walls. That's nice for plants, because it gives them the ability to grow up and out, where they can get lots of sunlight for making their food.

In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls allow plants tohave rigid structures as varied as wood trunks and supple leaves; and vacuoles allow plant cells to change siz
Exactly why plant cell have wall and animal cell don't :-Cell walls are supporting structures that help the plant to have a fixed shape and protect it from injury. Other than that, it helps to keep the plant turgid so that it can stay firm and upright. Because when it enters a high water potential solution, as water moves in, the water exerts turgor pressure on the cell wall and the cell wall thus exerts an opposing pressure to keep water out. Hence cell wall is needed for the plant.

On the other hand, animal cells do not need to keep the structures, as they have the skeletal system to protect the organs and cushion them against any external Injuries.

kykrilka [37]

Answer: The options are not given, here are the options.

A) No the DNA in circulating erythrocytes ins needed to help transport O2 through the capillaries

B) No circulating erythrocytes contain DNA.

C) Yes DNA is responsible for cell division in most cells

D) Yes circulating erythrocytes carry DNA nutrients through the capillaries

The correct option is B.

No circulating erythrocytes contain DNA.

Explanation:

Erythrocytes or red blood cells is a biconcave disc that contain haemoglobin which help to carry oxygenated blood in the body.

Circulating erythrocytes do not contain dna because they lack nuclei and organelles, cannot synthesize any RNA, therefore cannot divide and have limited repair capabilities.

Because they cannot carryout protein synthesis, no virus can evolve and invade the red blood cells.
