Why is density a derived unit?

Biology
2 answers:
Triss [41]4 years ago
4 0
Density is a derived unit because it's not reported as a pure unit. (A pure unit would be something like kilograms or meters.) In contrast, the units for density are kg/m3. Density is the ratio of mass to volume; mass has the unit 'kilograms' (kg) and the unit for volume is cubic meters (m3).

Density is an intensive property, which means the amount of the material is irrelevant. The density of a substance is constant.

if one of the 7 exponents has value 1 and all others exponents are 0, then the unit being expressed is a base unit; otherwise it is a derived unit. Thus, for density we have: ... Density is mass divided by volume. Volume is already derived from length (measured in cubic meters - meter*meter*meter).

Summarize Griffin's experiment
Rasek [7]
Fredrick Griffith, He did an experiment with virulent and non-virulent strains of pneumonia. He heat killed the virulent strain, making it harmless and then mixed it with the non-virulent strain. When he inoculated mice with the mixture, the mice died, This meant that the non-virulent bacteria had picked up some genetic material from the killed bacteria - they had been transformed.

Match the following organs and organ systems. 1.digestive system brain 2.central nervous system tracheal system 3.respiratory sy
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The correct macthing of the organs with their organ systems is as follows.

1. Digestive system - intestines.

2. Central nervous system - brain.

3. Respiratory system - tracheal system.

4. Excretory system - bladder.

Digestive system is made up of the alimentary canal consisting of the digestive organs and the glands. Among the digestive organs, the intestines play a major role in the process of digestion. The small intestine is the site of complete digestion which is associated with the pancreas and liver. The large intestine is involved the absorption of water from the digested food and remaining waste material is stored and thrown out of the body during defecation.

The central nervous system is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. The brain makes the largest part and the functional of the central nervous system. It controls most of the activities of the body. It is made up of three parts called the cerebrum, cerebellum and medualla oblongata and is protected by the skull.

The respiratory system is divided into the upper respiratory tract consisting of the nasal cavity, pharynx and larynx, and the lower respiratory tract consisting of the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and the alveoli. The trachea or the wind pipe is a cylindrical tube infront of the oesophagus, supported by 16-20 C-shaped hyaline cartilage. It serves as a passage for air to move in and out of the lungs.

The excretory system is made up of a pair of kidneys, a pair of ureters, an urinary bladder and an urethra. The urine produced by the kidney flows through the ureters and is collected in the urinary bladder. A spinchter (a ring of muscle) guards the opening of the bladder into the urethra and relaxes only at the time of urination under the impulse from the brain.

Identify the results of a substance losing energy. Select all that apply.
Tema [17]
B and C

When particles get colder and lose energy, they begin to move less and less. Gas particles move the most, with solid particles moving the least. So, it makes sense that if the substance loses energy and gets colder, it will also transform from gaseous state to liquid state since the particles are also moving slower as a result of it losing energy.

Hope this helped!

What happens during each part of the interphase?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Interphase is the longest stage in the eukaryote cell cycle. During interphase, the cell acquires nutrients, creates and uses proteins and other molecules, and starts the process of cell division by replicating the DNA. Interphase is divided into three distinct stages, Gap 1, Synthesis, and Gap 2, which are discussed below.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!!
