Initially you need to find the specific heat of the granite. It is found in tables.

With that data, you can apply the equation: Q = m * C * ΔT


Where:

 m = 17  kg

ΔT = 45°C - 21°C = 24 °C

And, from a table the specific heat, C, of granite is 790 J/kg°C

Therefore, you get: 17 kg * 790 J/kg°C * (24°C) = 332,320

This answer is pretty close to the option A, and you can conclude that the difference is due a small difference in the specific heat used.

Answer: option A.

Which best illustrates how Gregor Mendel used creativity that lead to scientific discovery?O He noticed that traits were passed
Svet_ta [14]
<span>As I know Gregor Mendel - Austrian naturalist, botanist and a religious leader, a monk, founder of the doctrine of heredity (Mendelism). By applying statistical methods for the analysis of results of the hybridization of pea varieties, formulated the laws of heredity. In 1856, Mendel began his experiments in crossing different varieties of peas, differing in a single, strictly defined criteria (for example, the shape and color of seeds). Precise quantitative account of all types of hybrids and statistical processing of the results of experiments that he conducted for 10 years, allowed him to formulate the basic laws of heredity - the splitting and combining of hereditary "factors". Mendel showed that these factors are separated and not crossing merge and disappear. Although the crossing of two organisms with contrasting features (for example, yellow or green seeds) in the next generation of hybrids appears only one of them.</span>

Identify the group of hormones that alter cells membrane receptors
ludmilkaskok [199]
Second messenger systems: The amino acid-derived hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine bind to beta-adrenergic receptors on the plasma membrane of cells. Hormone binding to receptor activates a G protein, which in turn activates adenylyl cyclase, converting ATP to cAMP.
